Digital Innovation in Clean Energy (DICE)
The Digital Innovation in Clean Energy (DICE) program supports the development of digital technologies that create value and jobs while reducing emissions in the energy sector. This is inclusive of technologies in artificial intelligence and machine learning, blockchain, industrial internet of things, unmanned aerial vehicles (drones), virtual and augmented reality, digital twins, etc. While many of these technologies have multi-sectoral potential, the energy industry represents both a wealth of data to de-risk technologies along with cash flow to create value to the developer and the end user.
The Digital Innovation in Clean Energy (DICE) Open Call 3.0 builds on two successful funding competitions. To date, the Digital Innovation in Clean Energy (DICE) program has supported 30 projects completed between March 1, 2020, and August 31, 2023. A total Alberta Innovates funding contribution of $6.1 MM was leveraged 3.3 times for a total project value $26.2 MM for Alberta’s economy.
