Distributor Arrow Electronics has been designated as the Elite IT Solutions Provider Partner in Europe by Schneider Electric, through joining the mySchneider IT Partner Programme.
This partnership enhances channel partners with a distribution model for on-premises data centres, AI, HPC, and hybrid-cloud technologies.
It also grants access to Schneider Electric’s EcoStruxure sustainability services and software for MSPs, ISVs, system integrators, cloud and telco companies, and enterprises, aiding them in complying with upcoming regulations like the European Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) set for May 2024.
The EED mandates that partners and end-users with data centre capacities of 500kW or more report energy performance data, such as power-usage effectiveness (PUE) ratings and consumption details.
Mike Worby, Head of Strategic Alliances for Arrow’s enterprise computing solutions business in EMEA, said: "Our new collaboration with Schneider Electric is another step forward in enhancing our sustainable solutions offering, helping our customers access the support and expertise they need to reduce their environmental impact."
James Mealor, Strategic IT Channel Director, Schneider Electric, Europe, added: “Our new collaboration with Arrow marks an important next step in our journey to help ensure specialist applications are met with a full-stack approach that has sustainability front of mind.”
