The Universitat Jaume I, together with the VIA University College in Denmark (“VIA-UJI équipe”), have started the second phase of the Solar Decathlon 2014 competition with the official presentation of the project  [éBRICKhouse](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbBW8kJ-AqQ&feature=player_detailpage) in Paris.

The project developed by VIA-UJI team is an urban proposal aimed at creating sustainable locations with a marked European identity. Its main objective is to create different combinations and solutions to solve problems of population density taking into account the respect for nature, vegetation, water and the environment.

During their stay in Paris, the team participated in a workshop prepared by the organization of the competition to present the principles, ideals and concepts of different solar homes. In addition, the workshop coincided with the fair Écobat 2013, where the VIA-UJI team also presented their work.

Solar Decathlon is an international competition that aims to promote research and development of efficient housing. To do this, university students around the world design and build a house that runs only on solar energy. The final phase of the competition for 2014 includes the construction of houses in the gardens of the Palace of Versailles, where the prototypes will be subjected to 10 tests to determine which house will become the winner.

The work done by both universities can be seen on [http://www.equipe.via.uji.es](http://www.equipe.via.uji.es/) and on the Facebook pages "Decathletas UJI" and "Decathletes VIA".
