"The goal of AHEAD Energy is to provide universal access to appropriate, sustainable, safe clean, efficient, reliable, affordable energy services. AHEAD assembles the resources needed to develop local energy services in biomass-dependent areas of the world, making modern energy available to improve lives and livelihoods in ways that safeguard the natural environment.

For the half of humanity that does not have access to modern energy service, life is difficult. Resources are not the problem. Access is. The poor in Africa don't need us to send them energy - even if we could. They do need our help, however, in developing the abundant resources they have in an environmentally conscientious, technologically appropriate manner." (website)

"AHEAD is an NGO focused on localized, environmentally-sound, scalable, energy transitions that improve lives and livelihoods in poor communities. AHEAD uses charitable dollars to overcome initial barriers in bringing conscientious energy solutions to poor communities, paving the way for local ventures to develop and expand. In particular, AHEAD is focused on providing reliable energy by developing natural gas resources that can work in tandem with renewable energy technologies." (website)
