Team Afghan Power (TAP) is a veteran-owned, US-based nonprofit. We are American veterans, development professionals and Afghan citizens working side-by-side. Our mission is to expand opportunity at the village level across Afghanistan so rural communities have the resources to develop and brace against violent extremist recruiting. Without a positive conclusion to the eighteen-year war, the compounding decades of conflict will keep villages across the country underdeveloped. TAP enables economic and community development in Afghanistan’s rural villages by designing and building renewable sources of energy. We furnish rural villages with productive electricity, while working alongside each community to harness opportunities for economic development and improved quality of life created by effective energy use. TAP’s commitment to a community participation approach makes our development work fluid and closely focused on each community’s distinct needs using climate-conscious electrification.
