Mighty Buildings plans neighbourhood of 3D-printed homes for California

Once complete, Mighty Buildings claims that the development will be the "world's first community" of 3D-printed homes with net-zero emissions.
Solar panels will provide energy for the properties. Individual houses will also have the option to use Tesla Powerwall batteries to store solar energy.
The development will be in Rancho Mirage
The company has released renderings showing 15 bungalows that will be built using its patented Mighty Kit System. The hybrid process sees prefabricated panels made of 3D-printed material made in a factory before being shipped and assembled into steel-framed modular houses.
Each panel is the equivalent of eight layers of traditional construction materials, said Mighty Buildings.
In the Rancho Mirage development, each property will be made up of a primary and secondary volume on 10,000-square-foot (929-square-metre) plots with gardens featuring rectangular swimming pools.
