Solaqua Homes is the next incubator business to launch at Solaqua Power & Art. Solaqua Homes will integrate solar/renewable energy systems and sustainable materials to create net-positive buildings. A net positive building produces more energy then it consumes. Sustainable design principles with renewable energy systems complement architecture, environment, and lifestyle.

Solaqua Homes will be fabricated at the Solaqua Power & Art site to control costs, mitigate waste streams, control the construction environment and streamline production. Centralized production at the mill also supports the creation of green collar jobs and local economic development. Solaqua Homes is actively working with LEEDS-accredited architects and engineers to design affordable houses that incorporate renewable energy systems for electricity, heating and cooling. The initial plans propose the integration of solar, radiant floor heating, and household recycling systems to compost waste and reuse gray water.

Customized exterior and interior finishes are an integral part of personalizing each home, with handcrafted custom cabinetry, countertop and flooring options by Solaqua Center artisans working in glass, metal, ceramics and wood. Energy Star® rated kitchen appliances, lighting, and water-saving plumbing are included.
