This paper comprehensively summarized the development of solar technology, across-the-aboard analyzed the application of solar technology in the architectural design. According to the practical application of solar technology of the world, particularly China, it systemically described a variety of experience, trends and the key issues of the technology applications. It described three stages of technology development in detail, and specifically in-depth analyzed the solar photovoltaic devices and the building integration, put forward the feasible development strategy. This was very significant for erecting a low-carbon world.

The Living Community Challenge (LCC) is a green certification program that, unlike most certification programs, is geared toward whole neighborhoods as opposed to singular buildings. Unfortunately, no existing communities have achieved Living Community Challenge certification. Still, there are many neighborhoods utilizing the ideals – known as petals – of the LCC in attempts to become more sustainable. The Living Building Challenge (LBC), the parent certification for the LCC, has seen more success than the LCC and will provide further research on the implications of its criterion. This paper will look at the hypothetical variables of the LCC, the communities trying to achieve these variables, and how elements of it could be used in relation to impoverished communities. Through case studies on groups and individuals attempting LCC and LBC certification, specifically Bend, Oregon and the BLOCK Project, the potential of the research becomes evident. This paper seeks to demonstrate how the LCC could be applied specifically in low-income areas in Gainesville, FL without achieving all the requirements of each petal.
