The first ever Solar Decathlon China collegiate design competition officially kicked off today with 22 teams representing 35 universities and 13 countries gathered to show off their awesome solar-powered home designs. The City of Datong went all out to prepare for the event, which is the largest the city has ever hosted, going so far as to build a whole new hotel where all of the teams have been staying for the last two weeks while constructing their homes.
