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.

The Development of Scalable Next-Generation Smart Solar Simulators

Agreement Number:

979313

Duration: from Oct 1, 2021 to Mar 31, 2023
Description:

This project will unlock a global market for G2V, transitioning us from a new market entrant with high credibility to a widely-recognized solar simulation sector and technology leader. We will do this by creating technology and enhancing our products in order to accelerate our traction in the aerospace, automotive, and PV manufacturing market segments, delivering the best customer experience, and building systems that scale.

Objectives include adding functionality to: 1) deliver enhanced customer experience with application-specific options and on-line support; 2) enable the scaling of product installations through automated calibration and increased reliability, and 3) reduce product cost to reach a larger customer base.

Feasibility of the PrenaBelt™ for Use in Pregnancies Affected by Obesity

Agreement Number:

979351

Duration: from Oct 1, 2021 to Oct 15, 2022
Description:

To eliminate one of the few remaining modifiable risk factors for stillbirth and low birth weight (sleeping on the back in late pregnancy), we have developed the PrenaBelt™ – the first and only clinically tested and internationally-published positional therapy device for use during sleep in pregnancy. The PrenaBelt™ currently does not support pregnancies affected by obesity; however, this population is at a higher risk of pregnancy issues, including stillbirth. Therefore, we propose a feasibility project to adapt the PrenaBelt™ solution to this unique but
rapidly growing customer segment.

Scale up of VLD Cloud Technology for Rapid Deployment on Upstream/Midstream Pipelines and Adaptation of the Technology to Conserve Water in City Water Distribution Networks

Agreement Number:

979432

Duration: from Oct 1, 2021 to Mar 31, 2023
Description:

Even though there are incumbent technologies in place for leak detection in short length pipelines, they are not cost effective due to upfront capital investment required to implement them. Vanmok technology proposed in this project would address industry challenges, including emulsion pipelines leak detection. This project would support Vanmok in achieving the following objectives:
• Part 1: Develop and benchmark the capability of Vanmok’s leak detection in emulsion pipelines by conducting field trials.
• Part 2: Develop and test the completeness of the technology for leak detection in city water distribution networks
• Part 3: Develop the technology necessary to scale up and rapid deployment of Vanmok leak detection technology.
