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.

Assessed contribution for the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures

Agreement Number:

A1-019163-01-01

Duration: from Jan 1, 2023 to Dec 31, 2023
Description:

In collaboration with National Metrology Institutes (NMIs) worldwide, including NRC, the BIPM fulfills its mandate of providing the basis for a single, coherent system of measurements throughout the world, traceable to the International System of Units (SI). This mandate is carried out through a series of consultative committees whose members are the national metrology laboratories of the Member States, and through the BIPM’s own laboratory work, which includes carrying out measurement-related research and calibrations in selected areas for some Member States, depending on the technical sophistication of their NMIs.

Agreement:

Hyer: modeling of electrolysis plant to inform improved electrolyser efficiencies

Agreement Number:

995778

Duration: from Jan 1, 2023 to Mar 31, 2026
Description:

Though green hydrogen production has the potential to reduce 37% of energy?related emissions if scaled, the process faces adoption challenges due to high costs, compromised system reliability, and loss in performance/efficiencies. Owing to the complexity of the electrolyser system, off-design operating conditions lead to performance degradation mechanisms that could not historically be monitored or managed at the industrial stack scale. Pulsenic’s Propriety Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) device will enable monitoring and differentiating the degradation losses during a high current electrolysis process, which in return could provide information and data about the behaviour of the components during on/off-design operating condition. The objective of this project is to use this stack level data enabled by Pulsenic’s device to develop a model of a renewably powered electrolysis plant that correlates operating and stack design conditions with the electrolyser efficiencies.
