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.

ATLAS-LIB: Accelerated Technologies for Lithium-ion Advancement through Synergistic Electrolyte-Battery Integration
1034708
Under an international consortium, the collaboration between the NRC and McMaster University focuses on optimizing Lithium-ion Batteries (LIBs) by leveraging expertise from both institutions. Core to the collaboration are NRC’s cathode self-driving laboratory (SDL) and McMaster's advanced Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) techniques. The Project aims to transform structure-property-performance relationships between a battery cathode and electrolyte using autonomous experimentation, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) algorithms, and real-time Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) to enhance the cathode-electrolyte interface, verified by solid-state 7Li NMR (ssNMR). McMaster University provides advanced magnetic resonance (MR) characterizations to analyze lithium-ion dynamics. The university will benchmark electrolytes, focusing on lithium diffusion coefficients and activation energies, and build a database of physical chemistry parameters. Operando characterization strategies using McMaster’s MR pencil-cell will study Li+ dynamics in half- and full-cell configurations, assessing lithium plating and battery aging. This collaboration promises significant advancements in the efficiency and longevity of next-generation LIBs.
