Though officially founded in 2020, the ENER-i legacy spans as far back as the early 90s, when ENER-i was nothing more than a collection of scripts and plugins running atop AutoCAD. Our founder and CEO, Hala Ballouz, originated the idea these many years ago that utilizing software to its fullest potential to augment the skills and knowledge set of experienced engineers will play a crucial role in the construction and design of our power grid.

ENER-i.AI was formed from the collective work of a successful engineering consulting firm specializing in the electric power industry; Electric Power Engineers, Inc. (EPE for short). Throughout its 50+ years of cutting-edge work and contributions to the industry, EPE has continuously developed internal software solutions that solidify the combined experience of some of the brightest minds in the industry who work on real, everyday problems across the globe. For a long while, these solutions served to augment the abilities of the engineers at EPE and allowed the firm to continue pushing the boundaries into new frontiers such as energy storage, grid optimization, renewable energy integration, microgrids, and so much more.

Today, these solutions are being made available to the greater industry, under the company that is now known as ENER-i.AI, Inc.. From the very start, ENER-i has set out to be much more than just another software company. Built by engineers, for engineers, the ENER-i solutions and team continue to push the boundaries of what is possible in today’s grid and allow the engineers of today to effectively plan not just for the here-and-now, but also for what is to come.

Our team consists of expert power systems engineers, researchers, leading cloud-based software architects, designers, and coders, and is even further augmented by a continued partnership with its origin company, Electric Power Engineers. It is our mission to bridge the most crippling gaps for our customers, with a platform that will play a critical and decisive role in the intelligent modernization of our power grid. Our vision is to enable a holistic approach to planning and operating our grid and infrastructure.
