Grants and Contributions

The purpose of this agreement is to support engagement on Regional Tables with the Government of Canada.

The purpose of this agreement is to increase awareness, availability and use of lower carbon vehicles and fuels in Canada by supporting the installation of 34 electric vehicle chargers in Ontario.

The purpose of this agreement is to support engagement on Regional Tables with the Government of Canada.

The purpose of this project is to improve data collection, processing and analysis to contribute to discussions and negotiations on climate change and other environmental topics such as sustainable forest management, and sustainable production of wood products.

The purpose of this agreement is to support the Forest and Climate Leaders' Partnership Secretariat's 2025-26 workplan.

The purpose of this agreement is to enhance the capacity of the national Collaborative Partnership on Forests' focal points through targeted training and knowledge exchange to strengthen coordination, policy coherence, and data-sharing to advance sustainable forest management and its integration into broader national and global frameworks including the Global Forest Goals.

The purpose of this grant agreement is to support the United Nations Forum on Forests secretariat in carrying out its mandate to support promotion of sustainable forest management, including administration of the Forum trust fund consistent with the guidance provided by the Forum.

The project goal is to advance the frontier of nanotechnology and optical instrumentation to implement a new generation of highly sensitive quantum systems for chemical-specific biomedical imaging. The partners will combine their expertise in quantum photonics, nanofabrication, optical design, chemical/bio sensors, and molecular spectroscopy to generate a new quantum sensing platform that will significantly surpass the performance of the current state-of-the-art, enabling unprecedented levels of sensitivity and specificity. The partnership will involve the fabrication of plasmonic nanostructures, the implementation of a quantum imaging system and the development of protocols for biomedical testing. The outcome of this partnership will enhance the range of applications of quantum sensors and imaging technologies in chemistry, biology and biomedicine.

Symbient Environmental Technologies is a Mississauga, Ontario based clean-tech start-up company specializing in the development of enabling process technologies based on catalysis and other engineered nanomaterials.  Symbient has patent pending catalyst and process technologies for water treatment, which will enable the point of use production of performic acid (PFA), a non-toxic and sustainable disinfectant which will obviate the need to use chlorine-based disinfectants, thereby eliminating the creation of hazardous chlorination disinfection by-products (DPBs).  Symbient’s PFA technology will afford reduced capital and operating costs and result in a substantial reduction in ecotoxicity and climate change impact relative to the incumbent hypochlorite disinfection technology, enabling operators to achieve their regulatory compliance targets.

The proposed project by Synergraze Inc. is aimed at commercially growing and processing a natural cattle feed additive based on a strain of algae. At less than one per cent inclusion level, the feed additive is capable of reducing methane emissions in cattle and other ruminants by up to 90 per cent while also increasing the rate of weight gain. As this algae strain has not been grown at commercial scale before, Synergraze Inc. is developing a land-based tank facility to produce and process the algae into a cattle feed additive. The feed additive provides direct GHG reductions by nearly eliminating enteric methane emissions from cattle as well as potential intensity-based reductions associated with improving the rate of weight gain. As a result of this project, the amount of cattle feed additive produced will yield GHG reductions from cattle by 68,400 Tonnes of CO2e per year.
