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.

Grid3.0: The InterGrid
1029012
eCAMION envisions Grid 3.0:the Intergrid, an advanced power network of interconnected Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) controlled through a virtual network using LTE+/5G technology. This intelligent grid will enable automation, advanced network management, diagnosis, and proactive maintenance for electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. Leveraging artificial intelligence (AI), Grid 3.0 will function as a self-healing infrastructure, efficiently distributing energy within the power network to offset peak power demand.
To develop this innovative grid, eCAMION focuses on three key areas: ultra-efficient modular converters for high power density, optimized thermal management for electronics (Power Converter and Lithium-ion cells), and the utilization of 5G/LTE+ networks and AI for seamless control and decision-making. Grid 3.0 aims to address challenges hindering the mass adoption of EVs, such as inadequate charging infrastructure and grid resiliency. By transforming the EV charging landscape, eCAMION's Grid 3.0 will pave the way for a more sustainable and decarbonized future in transportation.

GraphPureTM Technology Development
1029016
Lithium-Ion Batteries (LiB) dominate the electric vehicle (EV) market and require high purity graphite to function. As demand for EVs increases, a supply gap in graphite is projected to be 3 million tonnes by 2029. With SDTC’s support, Green Graphite Technologies (GGT) will commercialize the most cost effective and environmentally friendly sustainable process to transform mined natural flake graphite into high purity LiB-grade graphite. This industrial scale demo plant will be used to engineer standard modular technology packages for rapid commercial roll-out.
As a technology provider, GGT will license its patent pending GraphPureTM technology to all NFG miners. With 10 modules expected to be in operation within 5 years of commercialization the impact on CO2e reduction is 2.1M tpa. GGT’s multidisciplinary team of industry experts are confident that GraphPureTM can be demonstrated at an industrial scale in less than 5 years for the benefit of multiple Canadian graphite miners.

Digital Intersection GHG Reduction Estimation Project
1029018
Transportation is responsible for 25% of Canada’s total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions with passenger cars and light trucks responsible for nearly half of that total, primarily in the form of carbon dioxide (C02). Traffic congestion is part of the problem. A 2009 University of California study showed that reducing congestion – keeping traffic flowing at moderate speeds and smoothing traffic so that there are fewer accelerations and decelerations – can reduce C02 emissions from vehicle traffic by approximately 30%.
This project will produce a modern traffic signal infrastructure using digital technologies capable of optimizing traffic signal timing to reduce congestion and the GHG emissions it causes. It will also create a global standard for quantifying the resulting GHG emission reductions, enabling cities and towns to measure the contribution improving traffic makes to reaching Canada’s GHG reduction targets.
