In this respect, we have considered increasing the energy efficiency of technological processes while respecting the minimization of anthropogenic effects on the environment. Having a well-defined structure, this report presents the main achievements got within the year 2016, as well as the perspectives and priorities assumed for the next reporting period, with reference to: - the economic and financial situation of the institute; - the structure of the human resource for research and development; - research and development infrastructure; - measures to increase the prestige and visibility of the institute; - sources of information and documentation from the scientific and technical patrimony of the institute. Thus, in 2016 the institute has promoted numerous research projects in areas which include high technology, a vision fully in accordance with the strategic national and European research objectives. There have been promoted and undertaken applied research in national and international context in electrical engineering for the benefit of the private and public companies, under PNCDI II and PNCDI III programs or within other national and international programs, of which we ought to mention HORIZON 2020, STAR, ESA, SEE, EEA, CEA and others, but also bilateral projects with IUCN - Dubna - Russian Federation; CERN - France; IPPI - Tehran - Iran; IKP - Juelich - Germany; GSI Darmstadt - Germany; Uppsala University - Sweden; TU Poznan - Poland; CISRI - Beijing - China; Galileo Ferrari - Torino - Italy; Institute of Electrical Engineering Brno - Czech Republic; scientific associations in Hungary. Also during this year, the implementation of the contract FAIR as well as the project under the program COSME - EEN “Bisnet Transylvania - Network support and innovation for SMEs in Transylvania” continued. Data comprised in this report for the year 2016, having a well-defined structure, include ICPE-CA identification data, with a brief overview of our departments and laboratories, the management bodies, the economic and financial situation, the structure of human resources, the research and development infrastructure of the institute. There are also presented concise descriptions of the research and development activities results, the measures taken to increase our prestige and visibility in Romania and worldwide, as well as pointed out some priorities in the medium and long term. The sources of information and documentation from the institute’s scientific and technical heritage, the conclusion of the presented report and also the perspectives / priorities for the next reporting period are not missing from this report. The year 2016 was the first year in which the R-D-I facilities developed within the existing laboratories in the field of energy were capitalized by winning three POC-G projects. By the support of the research equipments which were purchased under the infrastructure projects funded under the POS-CCE Program, “PROMETEU”, Axis 2, Measure 2.2.1 2009-2015 and the facilities they offer, our research groups were involved in national and international projects whose results will hopingly determine the ICPE-CA to hold a leading position in a national ranking of research. All these accomplished achievements have contributed to ensure a research and education environment of high technical and scientific level by attracting young graduates and increasing the number of researchers - doctors of science. This was possible thanks to a responsible and sustained involvement of the three leading structures of the institute: Administration Council, Scientific Council and, not the last, Management Board. Taking into account the fact that since 28 December 2016 the Institute has appointed a new General Manager, we wish for the year 2017 the institute INCDIE ICPE-CA still remain the same promoter in the field of electrical engineering in Romania and also an important research pole at international level.

1. Significant accounting policies The accounting policies are prepared on the basis of the Accounting Regulations on the individual annual financial statements and the consolidated annual financial statements approved by the Order of the Minister of Public Finance No. 1.802 / 2014, as subsequently amended and supplemented. They comply with national legislation as a whole and in particular are applied in compliance with the legislation governing financial and accounting matters. Accounting is conducted in Romanian language and considering ROL currency. The revenue is recognized in the income statement when the increase of the future economic benefits related to the increase in the value of an asset or the decrease in the amount of a liability are possible to be evaluated in a credible way. Income accounting is based on income types, by their nature, as follows: a) operating income (from research - basic activity, from activities related to research activity and other operating income) and b) financial income. Expenses are recognized in the income statement when it is credible to measure a future economic benefit related to a decrease in the value of an asset or an increase in the amount of a liability. Expenditure accounting is based on the types of expenses, by their nature, as follows: a) operating expenses; b) financial expenses. Expenses related to fixed asset maintenance and repairing were incurred to restore or maintain the value of those assets, they were recognized in profit or loss at the date they were performed, while expenditures incurred to improve technical performance were capitalized and depreciated for the remaining period. The assets are included in the financial statements at cost assessed on 30.06.2016. The inventories are listed at the acquisition cost. The administration output method is FIFO.

2016 | ANNUAL REPORT PAGE 157 6.4. Measures to increase the research and development capacity correlated to ensuring an optimal utilization
One of the main directions of action to achieve the assumed target by ICPE‑CA was strengthening the capacity and increasing the performance of R&D to enhance the scientific and technical productivity as well as the quality level of the research results. Thus, an important role in increasing the capacity of R&D is to increase the financial contribution of the private sector in implementing the R&D projects financed by public funds and growth of innovative projects R&D INFRASTRUCTURE requested by the companies through: - further development of strategic partnerships with prestigious Romanian universities from Romania and abroad, and with national businesses companies or service providers. Under the signed partnerships there were submitted and gained projects funded by Nucleu and NPRDI-II programs and also by the structural funds and EU programs. We can mention: 33 projects funded by the NP-II, 27 projects funded by the Nucleu Program; 4 contracts for funding of scientific events organized by our institute; 16 projects funded by the bilateral cooperation with JINR (Joint Institute for Nuclear Research) - Dubna, Russian Federation; 1 project funded as a coordinator within the program FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) – Germany, “Normal conducting magnets and power supplies – in-kind contribution to the FAIR project”; 1 project funded by the Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme, ENT/CIP/07/0001a “Business Innovation Support Network Transylvania” EEN 225 559 BISNet Transylvania-1; 3 projects financed from Competitiveness Operational Program 2014-2020, Priority Axis 1 - Research, Technological Development and Innovation RDI in Support of Economic Competitiveness and Business Development, Action A 1.2.3. - Knowledge transfer partnerships, “Transfer of knowledge to the private environment in the field of energy based on the scientific experience of ICPE-CA” - acronym TRANSENERG; “Integrated modular system and technology for electromagnetic shielding of enclosures in the range of 100 kHz - 18 GHz range” - acronym SITEM; “Development of intellectual capital through knowledge transfer in the field of advanced materials - impact on the labor productivity and production growth in enterprises” - acronym PHOENIX; 1 project funded by the Romania-Bulgaria Cross-Border Cooperation Programme 2007-2013, “Clean access in Calarasi-Silistra cross-border area” – MIS-ETC CODE 118; 1 project funded by the European Commission under the Joint Operational Programme Black Sea 2007-2013, “Integrated hotspots management and saving the living Black Sea ecosystem – HOT BLACK SEA” - MIS-ETC CODE 2303; 1 project funded under the European Space Agency program (ESA) – ESTEC (European Space Research and Technology Centre), “Planar heater based on electroconductive carbon fibbers designed for satellite thermal management”; 4 projects financed by the Programme Capacities - Module III; 4 projects on preparing of experiments at ELI-NP and FAIR under the Romania-CERN program: „Characterization the quality of the HESR normal conductors electromagnets field, as preparatory action for the PANDA experiment”, „HTS superconducting magnet designed to measure the nuclear magnetic moments”, „Laboratory for development and testing of structures for the acceleration, transport and diagnostics of charged particle beams”, “Development of new experimental and material systems for the positron convertor and moderator of the ELI-NP positron fascicle”; in 2016, experts seconded from Ploiesti IPCUP were carried out projects stages under the ICPE‑CA Nucleu Program, as well as service contracts signed with Albeanu Water Drilling Services Ltd, APA VUTCANI SRL, NAPOVAN Distribution SRL; 3 contracts of execution (wells drilling rigs, pressure gauges for drilling fluids).

12. Conclusion
At present, after twelve years of existence as National Institute for Research and Development in Electrical Engineering ICPE-CA, the institute has had a prestigious group of research and development which consists of 81 certified researchers, respectively research departments and laboratories with a high level technical endowment, recognized nationally and internationally, which conducts a various spectrum of research activities as: advanced materials with applications in energy and electrical engineering, biomaterials, multifunctional materials, efficiency in energy conversion and consumption, use of renewable energy sources in industry and transport; microelectromechanical devices, actuators, electromagnetic compatibility and electrical power pulse technique. Within the year 2016 INCDIE ICPE-CA managed to keep its assumed “mission ICPE-CA”, namely “applied research in national and international context in electrical engineering for the benefit of private and public companies, in the general benefit of the whole society”. In this context, a concentration of the existing potential was initiated for the research directions and activities that directly and immediately respond to the needs of the economy, this reorientation being perceived since the year 2012. Our Nucleu Program 2016-2017 faithfully reflects this reorientation. Thus, there have been achieved: The continued operation of the institute based on three main research departments and three certified laboratories: - advanced materials: functional and multi functional crystalline and nanostructured materials and composite; - new energy sources (wind energy, solar energy, fuel cells, hydrogen storage): conversion, saving and recovery; - microelectromechanical technologies and systems; Five new laboratories were created (laboratory of photovoltaic panels; laboratory of electrical testing for intent transient currents for research and development of protection systems for low-medium and high voltage; laboratory of superconductivity applied in electrical engineering; laboratory of electromagnets and electromagnetic measurements; laboratory of residual energy recovery) while other five laboratories were upgraded and rehabilitated (laboratory for electromagnetic compatibility - expanding area of research / testing to very high frequencies; laboratory of biochemistry and bioresources; laboratory of renewable energy sources; center of excellence in radiochemistry; laboratory of electrical machine dynamics). In this way, under the project POS-CCE “PROMETEU”an investment of over 20 million lei has been implemented successfully. The Office of Knowledge Management took over a difficult task: “flooding” the researchers with information about the launch of EU Horizon 2020 calls, presenting the general content of these calls, thus allowing our researchers to save valuable time in the correct orientation of their efforts. In addition, information was screened by various means, for example by the Scientific Secretary of ICPE-CA but also discussed in the meetings of the Scientific Council in order to launch projects of interest. A responsible involvement of the Scientific Council in the whole scientific activity of ICPE-CA. Involvement of our business incubator in Sfântul Gheorghe, as a partner in EEN and in BISNET contract, for finding consortia / partners to participate in Horizon 2020 projects calls. Achieving a synergy between our researchers and those working in IPCUP Ploiesti. Intensification of activity for promoting the institute by: - attending national and international inventions salons, to present inventions obtained under PNCDI II funding, but partly supported by our institute internal financing through Nucleu Program; - prestigious technological transfers, some of them made by the partners own effort; - widening the activity of the Centre of Youth Training in Scientific Research; - presence in the media: press releases, radio interviews, especially at Radio România Cultural and Radio România Actualități and TV, promotion articles in various journals; - increasing the visibility of the institute through ISI publications and through a large number of patent applications, awards and medals rewarded during the year 2016.
PAGE 212 | ANNUAL REPORT | 2016 Development of infrastructure to achieve objectives of national interest: • Material technologies; • Establishment and equipping of new laboratories and facilities; • Electromagnetic compatibility. Accessing of other grant funds: • Projects under the Programs: South-East Europe, STAR, ESA, EEA, CEA, INTERREG, SUERD and others; • HORIZON 2020 Projects adapted to our all activity domains; • Three POC projects, Axis 1, Section G – Knowledge Transfer were contracted; • Funds from the Romanian participation in FAIR (continuing the FAIR contract with the value of approx. 4 million Euros) and funds from the Romanian fee contribution to Dubna through continuing the implementation of some major contracts signed with IUCN Dubna directly as well as agreements for new contracts. Our development strategy has been successfully tested. In terms of social aspect, ICPE-CA came out of 2016 strengthened: the ICPE-CA employee is confident in its own forces, in ICPE-CA ability to overcome the difficulties, is focused towards solving the economy problems and finds now more connections to the good social. In conclusion, the submitted Report highlights the fulfilment of the assumed activities, respectively of the measures included in the ICPE-CA plan for the year 2016.

2016 | ANNUAL REPORT PAGE 215 11. Perspectives / priorities for the next reporting period19
The priority of this year is the need to further adapt ICPE-CA to the new requirements of the research market. This market has two components: internal and external. The internal market this year is firstly the economy but without excluding the National Plan and our Nucleu Development Plan. We still perceive the structural program, POC, as very important, being seen as a continuation of the National Program RDI and Nucleu Program. We intend that in our main work groups to promote the knowledge transfer supported by the Competitiveness Operational Programme. This program is friendly for us, the main RDI concerns of ICPE-CA being in the areas of smart specialization which the program explicitly promotes. The external market is represented for us by ERA, with the main program HORIZON 2020 and, not least, by the cooperation joint programs with Dubna, CERN, FAIR, ESA as well as various bilateral cooperation. The regional cooperation offers many possibilities for collaboration These markets, either internal or external, are facing increasingly more towards the practical needs of the society. They require competitive products technically and economically. In order to increase our presence in these markets and to make ourselves visible, we should offer products that can be developed by our skills. We must develop these skills in a multidisciplinary way, according to the complexity of the achieved products. Following these objectives, taking into account our skills, the specific of the research market, in accordance with the Romanian and European priorities, with the new items arisen in the life and activity of the institute, and empowering of new capabilities of some research groups but also with the specializations and developing new skills, we have to continue directing our efforts towards achieving those specializations that can be assigned as “smart specialization”, to be economy oriented by: - drawing a new flowchart following the new Government Decision of ICPE-CA, adjusted Perspectives / priorities for the next reporting period / priorities for the next reporting Perspectives to the new realities in order to promote research with significance in the internal and international economy; - establishment of an ICPE-CA branch in Ploiesti by the selection of IPCUP staff, after approval of the Government Decision related to the institute reorganization;
19 in accordance with the strategy and development Programme of the institute
PAGE 216 | ANNUAL REPORT | 2016 - implementation of a new ICPE-CA Labour Agreement and the efficient promoting in this way of the scientific / technical performance; - fulfilment of the Action Plan 2017 approved in 2017 by the Administration Council of ICPE‑CA. By continuing to implement DEP will ensure the efficiency of our activity and will bring great benefit to the overall development of ICPE-CA, ensuring reaching of the expected achievements. Nowadays we own a relatively young team which is concerned about the progress; still this year, a special emphasis will be placed on employing of young engineers, physicists, chemists, to help implementing within our institute of some modelling and simulation techniques in all our main research areas, including the advanced materials domain. This will lead to a cheapening and develop of our research work. The institute supports this development, morally and materially, by all means. We will not forget here, as a priority, accessing the all sides of the internal and external markets, the active technology transfers of products and technologies, increasing our internal and external visibility, keeping an optimal mean age of the institute personnel, developing our relationship for internal and external collaboration. We will aim as ICPE-CA further represents a desired job for young people with university technical training.
