There will be a new burst of energy in Wellington as Victoria University students assemble a solar powered Kiwi bach in Frank Kitts Park this weekend.
The students are building the solar powered house from NZ materials as a test run for the US Department of Energy solar decathlon taking place in Washington DC in October.
The Wellington team is the first ever from the Southern Hemisphere to be selected for the Washington competition.
The public will be able to visit the Meridian First Light house at Frank Kitts Park on the Wellington waterfront from May 7-24. The student team will also be running public tours to showcase the solar technology used.
