EWS celebrates 40 years – with a view to the future

The story of EWS began in early November 1985: with the granting of a business license and the conversion of a disused railway signalman's house into a planning office for solar and wind power plants. From these beginnings, an internationally recognized specialist wholesaler developed over the following decades, which, together with a steadily growing network of installation companies and manufacturers, has played a decisive role in shaping the solar industry in Germany.

The new anniversary video offers a vivid insight into the company's development and the transformation of the industry: It combines flashbacks to the pioneering days of solar energy with scenes from EWS's everyday work life today. This creates an authentic portrait of 40 years of commitment, team spirit, and innovation – and a thank you to everyone who has helped shape this journey.

Here you can find the exciting video for the anniversary.

Strong team and proven partners

Company founder Kai Lippert is using the anniversary as an opportunity for a smooth transition: After five years of joint leadership, he is handing over the reins completely to his son, Jan Paul Dahm. "EWS wouldn't be what it is today without the passion of our employees and the close collaboration with skilled tradespeople and our suppliers," explains Kai Lippert. "I'm proud to now pass the responsibility into the hands of a generation that is embarking on the future with fresh energy and great team spirit."

The experienced management team stands for stability, continuity, and a clear focus on sustainable development.

Monthly promotions

Starting in November, EWS will launch its anniversary campaign, "40 Years of EWS," featuring monthly changing promotions, offers, and insights, implemented in collaboration with numerous suppliers. "The energy transition thrives on close cooperation between specialist companies, manufacturers, and wholesalers," emphasizes Jan Paul Dahm. "With these anniversary campaigns, we want to put the skilled trades in the spotlight and demonstrate that success in our industry is always a team effort."

To kick things off, EWS will present a special offer in November in partnership with Huawei. Showroom packages, designed to promote practical consulting and direct interaction with end customers, will be raffled off. (HS)
