Grants and Contributions

The objective of the EAF is to support community based projects across Canada that improve accessibility, remove barriers, and enable Canadians with disabilities to participate in and contribute to their community.

A junior engineer will work under the supervision of a P.Eng. to improve Energera’s 10K Sandtinel vortex sand separators by enhancing efficiency, increasing production capacity, and developing a framework for next-generation vessel designs using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and parametric analysis.

This AI project will enhance the firms proprietary asset risk management software with machine learning capabilities.

This project builds on the existing “See It, Name It, Change It” initiative—a community education campaign originally developed by Lanark County Interval House and Community Support to increase awareness of the warning signs of Intimate Partner Violence and promote safe, informed intervention in rural communities. With support from Lanark County Interval House and Community Support, Ottawa Victim Services has adapted and urbanized the campaign for Ottawa’s diverse, densely populated environment. This project seeks to further adopt this shared program to integrate education about Canada’s new Red Flag laws into the campaign to expand public knowledge, reach high-risk populations, and prevent firearm-related harm before it occurs.

Solvest Inc. will design, construct, and field-test a modular, heli-portable Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) known as the Power Pod

Sustainable surface transportation of large elements (e.g. cargo, crew, etc.) over large distances on the Moon requires the use of traction drive systems. The specific combination of large cargo elements, challenging terrain (e.g. large slopes, abrasive regolith), and extended life in both vacuum and the extreme Lunar temperature environment exceed the capabilities of existing state-of-the-art terrestrial traction drive systems. MDA Space is proposing to develop a traction drive system to meet the demanding mission requirements of known and forecast Lunar rovers. Key market differentiators will be a traction drive system exhibiting high speed and torque capabilities, and a long life with no maintenance intervention, which can withstand the challenging Lunar night and regolith environments. Potential customers include the Lunar Utility Vehicle, NASA’s Lunar Terrain Vehicle (LTV), the European Lunar Polar Sample Return (LPSR) mission, and potentially pressurized rover missions.

This funding aims to provide short-term financial support to licensed Canadian wineries to adapt to challenges impacting financial resilience and competitiveness.
