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.

Design and Optimization of Alkaline Water Electrolyzers for Sustainable Hydrogen Generation
1017217
This project aims to enhance alkaline water electrolyser (AWE) efficiency for green hydrogen production by addressing gas bubble transport challenges. Utilizing advanced Ni-based metal 3D printing, it is planned to develop novel porous transport layers (PTLs) with controlled porosity and pore size gradients to facilitate efficient gas bubble removal and improve current density. Additionally, a revolutionary design that introduces water through a porous separator to reduce bubble formation on electrodes, potentially leading to a bubble-free operation and higher energy efficiency is being proposed. Collaborating with NRC, University of Waterloo (UoW) and UoG,
this multidisciplinary effort seeks to reach the US Department of Energy's 2026 target of 1.0A/cm2 at 1.8V/cell in AWE systems, promising a significant advancement in the scalability and efficiency of hydrogen production technologies.
