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.

Convolution Neural Network enhanced Energy Accuracy Prediction in Quantum Chemistry (CEAPQC)

Agreement Number:

1029811

Duration: from May 1, 2025 to Mar 31, 2026
Description:

The project aims to leverage generative AI methods, including architectures that incorporate Convolution Neural Network (CNN) to find correlation between the molecular ground state energy and violations in exact conditions for the eigenstate wave-function of a molecular Hamiltonian system. The electronic structure problem is the key problem for drug design, catalyst finding, and material development. With the development of new quantum and classical computing algorithms for this problem, there is a question of how accurate the new algorithm will be for compounds of industrial relevance. These compounds are usually large molecules or periodic systems with large unit cells, so the exact solution cannot be obtained using current computing resources. The project proposes to address the question of accuracy prediction by finding transferable correlations between quantities that one can evaluate for any approximate method and whose values are known for the exact wavefunction, the latter will be referred to as indicators. To obtain reliable energy accuracy estimates, the project team will use as a training set exactly-solvable model Hamiltonians and Hamiltonians for small molecular system where the exact answer is known. The machine learning CNNs will be trained to find correlations between energy and indicator errors on a training set. It will be used to predict the accuracy of any computational method generating a wavefunction for molecules of interest.

MonoRoll Testing and Development

Agreement Number:

1029920

Duration: from May 1, 2025 to Mar 31, 2026
Description:

The MonoRoll is the finer grinding prototype in the Conjugate Anvil Hammer Mill (CAHM) technology platform. A first prototype was constructed and initial testing was completed in 2020/2021 as part of the Canadian government's CrushIt! Challenge. The technology was runner up in the challenge after demonstrating a 25% energy savings compared to a ball mill for the same grinding performance. Following the challenge, the development work was paused so that the CAHM team could focus on the coarser grinding CAHM machine, however the team aims to leverage the learnings from the CrushIt! Challenge work to realize the projected 50% energy savings compared to conventional ball milling.
