And I’m almost positive we’ve driven by this house – it’s awesome.

"Pricing for a Ma Modular home starts at about $125 per square foot, which includes R19 walls, R30 to R50 roofing, low-E insulated windows, durable and reflective metal roofing, and cabinets and flooring from green materials such as bamboo or cork. The price includes set up of the home but doesn’t include foundation."

And I love the Austin Pecan Street Project’s mission.

This year’s theme “Bringing the Smart Grid to Life” directly relates to efforts from the Pecan Street Project. The Pecan Street Project (PSP) is Austin’s city-wide clean energy laboratory, the largest in the nation, and the only place where researchers and entrepreneurs can come to develop, test and implement the smart grid. The mission of the Pecan Street Project is to establish the city of Austin as America’s clean energy laboratory. It is the most aggressive smart grid program in the nation with:

-300 megawatts of distributed generation
-320,000 smart meters
-Unique regulatory flexibility of ERCOT, the Texas Grid
-Utility participation
-Private sector technology expertise in Austin
