EBV Elektronik, an Avnet (NYSE: AVT) company and the leading specialist in EMEA semiconductor distribution, provides tailor-made technical, commercial and logistical services to customers in specific vertical markets. EBV already has dedicated teams for Automotive, Consumer, General Lighting and RFID vertical sales segments. The newly-created team for Renewable Energies once more underlines EBV Elektronik's leading role in the areas of green electronics and energy efficiency, marking another milestone in EBV's ECOmise it™ strategy.
"Renewable energies offer a huge potential for using resources sparingly and generating additional energy. We are absolutely convinced that a major market has now emerged, and want to help our customers in participating in this boom with this highly specialised team," explains Rudy Van Parijs, vice president Technical Development at EBV.
"Within our 'ECOmise it' campaign, EBV has already proved its strong commitment to reducing emissions not only by supporting selected environmental projects but also by providing the designs of our customers with latest energy efficient semiconductor technology. We also continue to raise general awareness about the topic amongst our employees, suppliers, business partners and the public. The foundation of a dedicated sales segment is therefore a logical consequence of our long-term commitment," concludes Van Parijs.
Antonio Fernandez, vertical segment manager EMEA for Renewable Energies at EBV, underlines the priority of EBV's commitment: "Our civilisation depends on energy. Energy demand is ever-increasing, and we cannot continue to rely only on fossil fuels. We live in a world that deserves our respect and attention. Global warming and increasing environmental pollution are just two of the alarm signals that demand our immediate action. All that led to our commitment which is embedded in our 'ECOmise it' campaign. Our dedicated sales team now provides real value to manufacturers of renewable energy electronic systems through design advice and support, together with supply chain services that help to take a design from concept to production. Again, the core message of our 'ECOmise it' campaign applies: 'Only by setting ecological standards, you will be economically successful'."
