About
Institute of Multidisciplinary Research for Science and Technology from Valahia University of Targoviste, with acronym ICSTM-UVT, was founded by Senate Decision on September 25, 2003.
ICSTM-UVT is an independent professional organization, apolitical and non-governmental, with UVT juridical dependence, that aims to bring together the university personnel and experts from different fields for accomplishment and implementation of national and international research and development projects and partnerships with different possible beneficiaries.
ICSTM is hosted in a new facility built especially for its use and purpose. The building is a result of a project founded by European Structural Founds won in competition. (More details on the projects site: http://916.icstm.ro)
Governing Board of ICSTM-UVT is subordonated to Valahia University Senate

New project launch: Solar Energy for UVT’s sustainability goals
We are proud to announce the launch of a new project aimed at increasing energy sustainability.
Supported by the Modernization Fund, our university will develop a photovoltaic power plant with a capacity of 686 kWp, capable of covering its entire Campus site electricity needs.
The project will significantly reduce our carbon footprint, lower the energy costs, and promote the transition to a green university model.
Implementation period: 1 year
Let's head towards a greener future!
What if your house could be more than just a space to live in?
With 23 partners from 8 countries, the @HorizonEU-funded project #RENplusHOMES_eu will reshape our perception of homes by developing #positiveenergy homes and districts.
1st general assembly of our new HEU project: Ren+Homes
On 7 and 8 November 2023, REN+HOMES’ partners met for their first general assembly at the Centre for Research and Technology, Hellas (CERTH) in Thessaloniki, Greece.
REN+HOMES aims to contribute to a sustainable transition by not only reducing carbon emissions but also addressing resource scarcity and energy poverty. In this respect, stakeholders are involved through education and participation programmes. Our goal is to establish a universal approach for developing positive energy homes and residential districts. This facilitates the transition to climate-neutral and energy-positive residential buildings.

WORKSHOP: Multi-Energy Systems - Perspectives & learnings from ICSTM-UVT (University Campus)
Date: October 11th, 2022
- Co-creation activities with local stakeholders to enforce the role of communities as active players in implementing new technologies.
- Development of technology tools around the dynamics of existing communities from our Campus site.
- Integration of the system architecture along with legacy existing assets (installations and devices).
- Development of software solutions for device integration and energy management with the purpose of: shifting building loads using demand side management; optimal scheduling of thermal and electrical storage; storing excess generation in thermal network.
- Showcasing software toolboxes for Energy Planning Application and Multi Vector Simulation.
By participating in this workshop, you will get a thorough understanding of what the E-LAND toolbox has to offer, and how it may impact your energy community or business. Or maybe you will be inspired by the experience of ICSTM-UVT to find the solution that makes sense to you. Either way, this is an opportunity to learn from our efforts, in becoming more energy efficient by managing energy consumption and production. Capacity is limited to 135 seats for physical participation. Secure your participation by filling out the form above before October 7th.

WORKSHOP: University campus, an energy island for a healthy study environment
The co-creation activities will generate functional / measurable models and actions that will be exploited by researchers within the E-Land Project to adapt technological concepts to the local context in order to achieve a carbon-free University Campus status.
