Dr. Nourai Joined KEMA

Dr. Ali Nourai, Chairman of ESA Board of Directors, retired from American Electric Power (AEP) in March 2010 after a 30-year utility career. He helped launching AEP’s successful sodium sulfur battery program in 2006 and introduced the concept of the Community Energy Storage (CES) in 2009.

Shortly after his retirement, Dr. Nourai joined KEMA as an Executive Consultant. He explains this move as a necessary step to reach out to other companies and help them with their projects in the field of energy storage that is rapidly growing. KEMA is the industry’s leading consulting company in storage and offers an excellent global platform for him to work on and reach out to utilities and other businesses across all energy storage application areas.
