OSTI ID:5748272
In the Spring of 1981, Bonneville Power Administration launched the Passive Solar Homebuilder Program in Portland, Oregon, and Spokane, Washington. The program's goal was not to create state-of-the-art solar designs, but rather to demonstrate to builders, designers, realtors and the public that passive solar homes can be attractive, affordable, functional and, therefore, marketable. Thirteen builder-designer teams were selected to design and build a home for the Portland Parade of Homes held in June, 1982. Ten teams were selected for the Spokane Home Show held in August, 1982. The Parade and the Home Show were cosponsored by the Home Builders Associations of Portland and Spokane and the Washington Water Power Company. The BPA-approved designs for the program are presented.
