EDEA CICE, Centre for Innovation and Quality in Building, aims at applied research, experimental demonstration, training, development and promotion of renewable energies and energy efficiency in architecture.
Experimental demonstrators
EDEA-CICE includes a set of spaces, buildings and facilities for the study and full-scale experimentation of equipment, products, materials and construction systems proposed by future collaborators, be they companies, universities, institutions or manufacturers.
Facilities room
EDEA-CICE promotes the construction and renovation of buildings with sustainability and energy efficiency criteria, improving the productivity and competitiveness of SMEs and professionals in the sector, as well as the participation of Extremadura in European projects that require cooperation with other European regions.
