Special Grants Program

ISEEE coordinates and manages both Special Case Grants and Internal Grants that are focused on E&E research.

ISEEE also provides advice on additional funding opportunities, proposal development and dissemination of results to secure the future strategic direction of these initial projects. A total of 15 projects have received funding through ISEEE since 2008.

The special case grants supported the following projects:

  • Fuel Cells research
  • Innovations in Solar Energy Conversion Materials
  • Water Initiative
  • Carbon Management

In addition to these special case grants, the following internal grant projects were funded:

  • Production and recovery of hydrogen
  • Wind energy and bat fatalities
  • Environmental and production implications of water flow through bitumen-filled sand
  • Zero discharge from thermal in situ
  • New airborne thermal diagnostic and monitoring tools
  • Energy indigenous-environment interface implementation plan
  • Model system to quantify impact or air emissions from O&G central Alberta on air quality
  • Effects of subsidence from gas production in Mackenzie Delta
  • Large-scale integration of wind power in electrical power grids
  • Groundwater gas migration in shallow aquifers
  • Hydrocarbon Metagenomics
