Project Gaia: Who We Are

Project Gaia, Inc. is a U.S. 501-c-3 non profit corporation and is registered in the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as a charitable organization. Its headquarters address is
No. 1 Lincoln Square, Box 4190, Gettysburg, PA 17325.

Project Gaia operates with a coordinating office staff of three in Gettysburg and a
network of consulting partners and collaborators located in the U.S., the U.K., Sweden,
Germany, Brazil, Nigeria, Ethiopia, Kenya and elsewhere. Project Gaia also works with
technical, business and NGO partners located in these and other countries. Project Gaia
is a team of like-minded people and entities dedicated to the idea that alcohol fuels are
ideally suited to energize economies and provide the energy so badly needed for 600
million to 1 billion households around the world that struggle to cook a daily meal.

Project Gaia, Inc. is governed by a board of five directors. It was established in January
of 2007 with an initial infusion of capital of $1 million, provided by a private donor. It
was established in part to support a non profit organization established in Ethiopia in
2005 named the Gaia Association, which seeks to serve extremely low income women
and families and serves as an Implementing Partner to the United Nations High
Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to provide energy services to refugee camps in
Ethiopia. The Gaia Association is registered with the Ethiopian government by the
Disaster Preparedness and Prevention Authority (DPPA). It works directly with
Ethiopian Government, and most closely with the Ministry of Mines and Energy and the
Authority of Refugee and Returnee Affairs in the Foreign Ministry.

These two organizations grew out of a research study that was launched in 1995.

Over more than a decade, the Project Gaia initiative has been funded by the Shell
Foundation, USEPA, USAID, the US Ambassador’s Fund in Ethiopia, the Swedish
Government, the World Bank, Lutheran World Federation, the IRC, UNDP, UNHCR, the
Ashden Foundation and corporate and private sponsors.

The Gaia Association is a 2008 winner of the Ashden Award for Sustainable Energy, an
award sponsored by the British Royal Family, and a 2008 EU Energy Globe Award for
Ethiopia. On March 16, 2010, Project Gaia, Inc. was awarded a Sustainable Biofuels
Award at the World Biofuels Markets Conference in Amsterdam. Five percent of the
conference fees were awarded to PGI to finance stoves for an emergency cooking
intervention in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.

Project Gaia and Gaia Association are members of GVEP, the HEDON Household
Energy Network and the Partnership for Clean Indoor Air (PCIA).

Project Gaia, Inc. and Gaia Association work in other locations beyond Ethiopia.
Projects and studies have been completed in Nigeria, Malawi and South Africa, and
projects are planned or under way in Madagascar, Rwanda, Mozambique, Tanzania,
Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal and Mali. A project and stove commercialization is also
underway in Brazil. An emergency intervention following the earthquake is underway
for Haiti. Haiti has long been a priority country for Project Gaia.

Project Gaia’s mission statement is attached.

We promote alcohol fuels for household energy and we facilitate the transfer of
technology, including cooking stoves, to emerging and developing markets where there
may be a need for these technologies. We work in the Global South, but we will work
wherever there are families who struggle to cook a daily meal. We are all about: (1)
Alcohol Fuels, (2) Household Energy and (3) Appropriate Technologies for the
production and use of alcohol fuels.

We have a website in Portuguese at www.projetogaia.org and our primary website at
