Discover the Energy Innovation Program with Leyton! In this new series of monthly videos, our consultant team will help you discover specific government grants available in Canada, and share key details that you need to know.
For this episode, our Government Grants Consultant, Antoine Giroir, will go through the Energy Innovation Program, and explain how this program can advance clean energy technology focused on reducing emissions through carbon capture, utilization, and storage.
This video has been recorded in English.
The Energy Innovation Program (EIP) advances clean energy technologies that will help Canada meet its climate change targets while supporting the transition to a low-carbon economy.
The government is investing $319 million over seven years, into research, development, and demonstrations to advance the commercial viability of Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) technologies.
These funds will bring together businesses, academia, non-profits, industry, and governments on the path to net-zero emissions by 2050. You are eligible as long as you are a legal entity validly incorporated or registered in Canada.
