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.

Development of a User Portal for Source and Load Management
1030298
This project develops a portal for owners of energy resources, such as solar, electric vehicles, and batteries, to participate in initiatives to support the electricity grid in return for financial incentives. An example is during peak times, when the grid is experiencing high demand and resorts to using expensive fossil-fuel based "peaking generators", this portal would allow for thousands of energy resources to offset that demand. Specifically, this user portal will allow the owners of the energy resources to set preferences for the energy use (leaving enough charge on the electric vehicle or battery), and receive incentives for their participation.
