sdtc apply

SDTC has two different funds that are currently accepting applications.

The SD Tech Fund™ supports projects that address climate change, air quality, clean water and clean soil. The Government of Canada has allocated a total of $915 million for the fund.

The SD Tech Fund™ is right for you if you …

  • Have an innovative and high potential clean technology at the right stage of development (beyond proof of concept, but pre-commercial)
  • Need to access funds and guidance in order to bring your technology successfully to market
  • Are prepared to enter into a contract or collaborative arrangement with partners so that your project has the right managerial, business planning, financial, strategic and technological capacity

The SD Natural Gas Fund™, an offshoot of the SD Tech Fund, supports the development and demonstration of new downstream natural gas technology. It is the first of a series of Market Innovation Funds™, where funds from industry are matched by SD Tech Fund money, to foster sector-specific cleantech solutions. It is a collaboration with the Canadian Gas Association (CGA) including up to $15 million from both CGA and the SD Tech Fund™.

The SD Natural Gas Fund™ is right for you if you …

  • Have an innovative and high potential natural gas cleantech project at the right stage of development (beyond proof of concept, but pre-commercial)
  • Need to access funds and guidance in order to bring your project successfully to market
  • Are prepared to enter into a contract or collaborative arrangement with partners so that your project has the right managerial, business planning, financial, strategic and technological capacity
