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.

AlumaPower 2026 Development Sprint for Military Aluminum Fueled Generators
1040727
This project is a half-year technology sprint meant to rapidly advance the operational readiness of AlumaPower’s aluminum-fueled generator technology for military and dual-use applications, in support of upcoming trial and demo events. This effort builds on recent military-focused R&D activities and addresses technical and conceptual feedback from Canadian and allied end users. Activities include: accelerated testing to validate system / sub-system performance and generate a consolidated evidence package; maturation of next-generation, high-energy-density aluminum-air galvanic cells; development of optional modular thermal management and heat export concepts; and preparation of prototype units for packaging, shipment, and off-site trials.
