Non-automotive and commercial vehicle solutions

The ongoing adoption of electric vehicles in the consumer space is clear evidence of society’s push for more sustainable living. However, it only tells part of the story. According to the European Union, transport sector electrification is essential for meeting goals of decarbonisation, as it accounts for 25% of all CO2 emissions in Europe.

However, electrification of non-automotive and commercial vehicles poses a number of engineering challenges across different sectors. Innovation in hybrid architecture for tractors, e-construction vehicles, and of course the electrification of our railways, will require a new understanding of the complex power demands that fully-electric infrastructure will create. Meanwhile, the advent of Automated Guided Vehicles is driving the need for advanced sensing and data processing capabilities.

Avnet Abacus’ Europe wide team of field applications engineers is ready to support your non-automotive transportation projects from concept, to prototype, to production, with a comprehensive range of sensors, connectors, power supplies, and passive components. Working closely with our market–leading manufacturers, we offer technical and commercial guidance at every stage of your design.
