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.

Autonomous vehicle library on e-component reliability, safety and compliance

Agreement Number:

925448

Duration: from Feb 1, 2019 to Apr 30, 2020
Description:

The automotive industry is increasingly transitioning to electronic cars and autonomous vehicles. Current component data sources relevant to this expanding market are limited and lacking integrity to meet the stringent standards and intricacies of the connected car industry. Our project will focus on technology advancement to address the market need for timely and accurate information including the reliability and safety of components used in connected cars. Our comprehensive database will use enhanced datasheet extraction and parametric matching to meet connected vehicle standards; quality parameters will be increased to align with the industry’s demand for information integrity.

Development of a charging adapter for extreme fast charge of electric vehicles

Agreement Number:

925586

Duration: from Feb 1, 2019 to Feb 28, 2020
Description:

GBatteries is pioneering extreme fast charge battery technology without compromising battery life, and without changing battery’s chemistry or manufacturing process. GBatteries is on a mission to enable Electric Vehicles (EV's) to charge as fast as it takes to fill-up a tank of gas. The objective of the proposed project is to develop a charging adapter for EV's in order to demonstrate the performance of GBatteries’ technology on an EV battery pack. This project will demonstrate the scalability of the technology from a small Power Tools to large EV battery pack, verify GBatteries’ unprecedented claims, capture the value proposition and serve as a stepping stone towards the deployment, demonstration, and commercialization of the technology.
