Is solar powered house still a myth for many of us? 12-year-old student Sicily Kolbeck
is building her own "Le
Petite Maison", a 128 square-foot solar-powered home. The idea was inspired by Deek Diedricksen’s YouTube channel and Kirsten Dirksen’s documentary, We, the Tiny House People.
Kolbeck is building the house as part of her curriculum for the year at HoneyFern School
in Marietta, Georgia, USA. The house will be powered entirely by a rooftop
solar energy array, and should easily be able to meet all the energy
requirements for one or more people living in the space. The project was
funded through an Indiegogo crowd-funding campaign. Kolbeck has
invited all contributors to tour the house during an
open house in May 2013.
