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 Project will support pilot testing of AI strategies, determine targeted architecture and quantitative technical objectives for implementation of an AI solution.

EFNpro’s proprietary technology platform streamlines contract creation and management for freelancers, agencies, and their clients. The key challenge for our ideal customer profile (ICP) is reducing time spent on administrative tasks before project kickoff. To address this, we plan to integrate AI and new features to simplify workflows from initial conversation to project close. Using a large language model AI, our platform will parse virtual meeting transcripts and user documents to auto-generate proposals, create project dashboards, and prefill contract details

Scaling production and medical device quality reprocessing systems and tools to enable manufacturing scale up

Agreement Number:

1025266

Duration: from Dec 1, 2024 to Mar 31, 2025
Description:

This project aims to address critical subassembly failures in the novel transducer fabrication process. These failures, undetected during current quality control (QC) steps, have led to field device failures and reduced production yield. By leveraging computer vision and custom thermal testing technology, the project seeks to enhance the advanced quality control systems, improve production reliability, and ensure scalability of the fabrication process while maintaining cost efficiency.

Agreement Number:

1025317

Duration: from Dec 1, 2024 to Oct 31, 2025
Description:

As part of the international cleantech project “Demonstration of Next Hydrogen Electrolyser Integrated with GE Vernova Power Converter,” this project will focus on integration of Next Hydrogen Corporation's (NHC's) electrolyser with a custom-designed, advanced GE Vernova (GEV) AC-DC power converter and demonstration with grid, solar, and simulated wind power at the GE Vernova Advanced Research Center (the ARC). NHC and the ARC will evaluate, characterize, and model the integrated system. GEV will subsequently scale up its design to the 8 MW range for integration with NHC's new scaled-up GEN3 electrolyser technology; this is a key strategic supply initiative for both NHC and GEV.
