Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Accelerating EMT Simulation: Essential for Planning and Managing the Power Grids of the Future

Agreement Number:

1021814

Duration: from Jun 3, 2024 to Jun 14, 2027
Description:

The transition to renewable energies poses major technological challenges for power grids. As a result, accurate simulation of electromagnetic transients (EMT) is becoming essential, and computation acceleration is becoming crucial to effectively meet market requirements. Thanks to the current capabilities of our flagship platforms, the value proposition lies in the acceleration of real-time EMT simulation, integrating HIL and offering excellent interoperability with other tools, ensuring speed and accuracy. These solutions aim not only to accelerate upstream renewable energy deployment, but also to prevent critical shutdowns and failures in the integrated system.
