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.

Developing safe and long-lasting Li-ion battery electrolytes for cold Canadian winters via real-time spectroelectrochemistry
967254
These electrolytes can also be used as components of liquid-solid hybrid batteries to obtain a combination of improved battery performance and safety. Nevertheless, unwanted decomposition reaction occurring at the interface of HCE and battery electrode potentially hinders the application of HCE in lithium batteries. The goal of this project is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the interfacial reactions that are responsible for deteriorating performances.
