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.

Stand-alone Photoelectrochemical Tandem Devices for Solar-driven Overall Water Splitting
1004048
The Project will investigate the conversion of solar energy into hydrogen fuel by utilizing a tandem photoelectrochemical (PEC) system with the main goal of generating a robust, scalable, and competitive solution for solar energy technologies. The Project will focus on materials development, rigorous characterization, cell development, and prototyping. To achieve, the Project will utilize solution-based techniques to address the urgent need for efficient absorbers for PEC systems via transferable methods for large scale production. A target is to develop or identify cost-effective and abundant materials for all required components without sacrificing their performance. The system to be developed will be the first work on solar driven-overall water splitting utilizing solution processing routes with benign molecular ink for photoabsorber synthesis coupled with earth-abundant and low-cost material cocatalysts.
