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.

Agreement:

Development of a new electric anode conveyor.

Agreement Number:

1005499

Duration: from Apr 11, 2023 to Dec 6, 2024
Description:

The firm intends to offer new conveyor solutions dedicated to aluminum smelters that will run on electric power, thus reducing greenhouse gases during plant operations. The main aim of this project is to electrify the systems and integrate the required features within the defined geometric footprint. Since the overall dimensions of the battery and motor systems will be an issue, the development team will have to optimize volumes while ensuring that the integrity of the structures is preserved, and offer performance similar to that of a diesel vehicle.
