info on quality energy efficient prebuilt homes?

I saw a home built by students at a Florida Univeristy that was completely energy efficient. Heat and cooled by solar power. Looked like a home from an alien planet but really liked it. Would like information on how to obtain information about possibly manufacturing this type of home or options to franchise this type of home.

What you are looking for is called “green” (eco-friendly) building. One of the best sources for information on the movement can be found here:
