As part of its plan to support green innovation, the Government of Canada is proposing a new grant<\/a><\/strong>, the Energy Innovation Program<\/strong>, to address the treatment of carbon emissions<\/strong> within the energy sector<\/a> <\/strong>industries, $319 million<\/strong> are provided over seven years<\/strong> to support research, development,<\/strong> and commercial viability<\/strong> of carbon capture, utilization, and storage technologies<\/strong>. The carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CUSC)<\/strong> program will provide innovative solutions toward emissions reductions<\/strong> when neither electrification nor low-carbon fuels are able to provide technically or economically feasible low-carbon solutions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Natural Resources Canada\u2019s program will provide non repayable contribution for both R&D<\/a><\/strong> and demonstration costs<\/strong> over a period of up to 5 years<\/strong>. For R&D<\/strong> oriented projects the program contribution goes from $500,000<\/strong> to $2,500,000<\/strong>. And for demonstration projects the program contribution goes from $1,000,000<\/strong> to $5,000,000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
