Basically with Mike’s invention, “wood is no longer just a structural member, or just a decorative trim or paneling- it becomes a solar energy storing device, and when the house is properly configured and sited it can heat and cool itself. The technology to create this special wood is what makes the invention innovative and oh! so green.

Their is a traveling exhibit which displays a model version of Mike’s Geo Solar Home and the next one scheduled is for June 4-25 in the patent office of Alexandria, VA.
