This report summarizes the Problem Statements sub-task of "Task 2.1 Design for Energy Efficiency" of the Energy Efficient Industrialized Housing Research Project. It includes an overall explanation of principles and procedures that underlie development of the following four problem statements: (1) Starter House for a Hot-Arid Climate, (2) Move - up House for a Hot-Humid Climate, (3) Renewable House for a Temperate Climate, and (4) Extended Family House for a Cool Climate. These problem statements define the design, energy conservation and manufacturing ingredients of housing demand scenarios for the year 2030. For each statement, designers will develop a house and site design that achieves stated goals and requirements. The resulting designs will be analyzed, evaluated and tested. In this process, innovative conclusions, principles and ideas that warrant dissemination, development or further research through other task areas of the project will be defined.Articleen-USCreative Commons BY-NC-ND 4.0-USProblem Statements for the 21st Century HouseArticle
