Hydrogen derived from renewables to power the Canadian mining sector

The purpose of this research is to determine the techno-economic feasibility of utilizing renewable energy to produce hydrogen for use in mine sites in Ontario to reduce their carbon intensity. As wind and solar electricity generation is intermittent, hydrogen has the flexibility as an on-demand fuel source, as well as an option for long-term storage. PNE Canada is a renewable energy generation company, the next step for their business would be to find energy storage options to maximize the energy generated from renewables. This research in utilizing hydrogen as energy storage and energy production vectors, will open more market segments for the company and further integrate their business model in providing reliable clean energy to Canada.
While this research focus is on industrial mine sites, this study has potential to be a blueprint for remote communities in Canada, or any location that is looking to become energy independent. For Northern Canada, communities that rely on diesel for heat and power generation, the cost of transporting the diesel has economic, environmental and social implications. These costs and problems will increase as world oil prices rise, carbon taxes increase, and the winter fuel shipping season decreases due to warming in Northern climates.

WCWRC Workshop Developer and Direct Client Support Provider

This project provides an opportunity for the student( myself) to develop casework skills by providing client-centred supports to newcomers including completing needs assessments and connecting them to appropriate services. By the end of the project, I will be expected to develop and facilitate workshop series for the community. The objective of the project aligns with my skill sets, personal experience and characteristics. I enjoy solving problems by using different tactics such as brainstorming and innovative thinking. In addition, my experience as a newcomer gives me the advantage of relating to the majority of newcomer women. This helps me to share my stories and experience with the women in order to connect and build trust. The workshop I will be expected to develop throughout the project’s lifecycle at the West Central Women’s Resource Center will remain with the organization to enhance the deliverability of their programs in the future.

Mitacs BSI-Student developer

GeoVald is in the process of developing an automated system to support faculty and students of a Learning Management System (LMS). As the result of COVID-19, it is important for GeoVald to work
with an intern that can assist in this development. The subsidized intern would not only be aiding GeoVald financially but would also be contributing to solving the challenges of remote learning, created by the COVID-19 pandemic.
This internship will focus on leveraging users and system data to analyse and develop automation that provides faculty and student users of the platform with: – Course engagement information in real-time – Student participation patterns and analysis – Automated individualized student engagement tips – Automated interactive assessment development using course content – Automated learning plans based on student performance and course content – Automated and anonymous student benchmarking (based on student performance) – Course content analysis and key concept capture

Minimizing potential induced degradation in crystalline silicon based photovoltaic solar modules

The demand for photovoltaic solar modules has increased tremendously in recent years. Unfortunately, photovoltaic solar modules are prone to potential induced degradation, i.e., a decrease in the power delivered from such modules arising as a consequence of them operating continuously under high applied voltages. This project aims to design a protocol for the accelerated testing of solar modules; we want to speed-up or accelerate the aging of these solar modules in order to identify what materials and configurations in a solar module are less prone to potential induced degradation. We will then use this protocol for accelerated testing in order to systematically identify which materials and configurations are best. Finally, if time permits, the mechanisms of recovery from potential induced degradation are going to be identified, and the device implications of this will be explored. This project will equip our industrial partner, Silfab Ontario, with a strategic advantage over competitors.

Assessing the viability of using tiny homes to address housing insecurity in the Region of Waterloo

This research will use a test site to define best practices for siting, management, planning, and construction of Tiny Homes for the homeless, through a comprehensive review of existing precedents. In order to do this, the research responds to four questions about ‘Tiny Home’ communities for people experiencing homelessness. 1) Where should these communities be located in the urban region? 2) How should this housing be governed, managed, and maintained and by whom? 3) How should these homes be sited and serviced; what should be included in a self-contained unit, and what services should be shared between units to create a productive housing community? 4) How should this housing be manufactured to maximize social, environmental, and economic benefits?

A “Right to Food” Framework for Tackling Food Waste and Achieving a Just Circular Food Economy in Vancouver, British Columbia

In Canada over 35 million metric tonnes of food is wasted and lost, which costs an estimated C$49.5 billion annually. Food loss and waste has negative consequences for environmental sustainability, the economy, and social welfare. Most research on this issue focuses on solutions that target retail and consumer waste reduction such as redistribution of ‘ugly’ produce to food banks. Solutions that do not address the root causes of food waste limit our ability to implement effective strategies to reducing food insecurity. This research will identify gaps in current food system design that allow food to be wasted and explore innovative solutions which center justice, equity, and the right to food. In partnership with the Vancouver Economic Commission, the research will propose ideas for reducing food waste in the local food system. This will provide insight into the limits and opportunities to implement an equitable circular food economy in Greater Vancouver.
