Mission
AHEAD Energy is focused on R&D, development and demonstration of resilient energy systems for remote/off-grid areas. AHEAD was formed in 1988 to consult on and implement energy systems in underserved, off-grid areas of Africa. We now have a more global focus, related to the transition to renewables, hydrogen/fuel cells (including renewable hydrogen carriers such as methanol and ammonia), plus other forms of storage including batteries and thermal energy storage. AHEAD owns and manages a unique multi-user facility in Rochester, NY - which is affiliated with Alfred University. AHEAD's work remains relevant to developing countries, but the technologies have potential application in remote areas in the USA and many other countries.
Programs
2 programs
Evaluation of site for demonstration of a hybrid geothermal system, which is suitable for microgrid applications in remote areas.
Member and board participation in the Ammonia Energy Association, a group which is supporting the use of ammonia as a carbon-free energy carrier made from natural gas, coal, or other inputs. Ammonia stores and handles like propane, and is an attractive future energy carrier, particular for remote areas without access to pipeline natural gas or grid electricity.
