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.

“Orange Motor”: Power Stage-Electronics, Control Algorithm and Stator Redesign for Novel Electric Motor
1013557
The scope of this project will be the quantification of the novel motor performance using both characterization testing of a physical motor and virtual dynamic motor model characterization (on hand). Identified limitations in the current stator design, power electronics, and control algorithm will be improved through redesign such that a physical implementation of the virtual model is produced with matching specifications. Successful outcomes will facilitate scaling the design to higher power and voltage levels in subsequent iterations.
