DRAMMEN, Norway--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Eltek Valere, a global leader in power solutions, announced today that it has received the Clean Technology Initiative award for its High Efficiency (HE) Initiative at the World Vendor Awards 2010 ceremony.
The World Vendor Awards are the only independent impartial awards that are focused on telecom vendors. Organized by industry publication Total Telecom, The World Vendor Awards were launched in 1999 to recognize excellence amongst the companies supplying hardware, software and services for the global telecoms industry.
