The All Electric Society is no longer a vision—it's a global transformation
The All Electric Society represents the vision of a carbon-neutral and sustainable world in which energy is generated and consumed almost entirely from renewable sources in electrical form. Primary energy demand is reduced through efficiency measures, while intelligent and connected systems ensure that renewable energy is deployed across sectors in line with actual demand.
Where Innovation Powers Sustainability
EBV has done it again - The new All Electric Society campaign showcases EBV Elektronik’s vision of a world fueled entirely by renewable, climate‑neutral electricity. It highlights how advanced semiconductor technologies are driving smarter energy networks, electrified mobility, and intelligent infrastructure—turning the goal of a fully electric, CO₂‑neutral society into reality. From modernizing power grids to enabling efficient EV charging and smart buildings, EBV delivers the expertise and solutions needed to accelerate the global transition toward sustainable electrification.
What you can expect to find:
- A clear introduction to the vision of a CO₂‑neutral, fully electrified world and why electrification is essential for climate neutrality.
- Insights into the key challenges of energy transition, including grid upgrades, storage needs, and smart energy management.
- Deep dives into smart energy infrastructure and how intelligent grids balance renewable generation, storage, and consumption.
- Practical solutions for clean mobility and electrified transportation, from EV charging to efficient power electronics.

Electrification is revolutionizing all industries
The key products enabling the All Electric Society are provided by the electronics and semiconductor industry. Embedded systems form the “nervous system” of the All Electric Society: they connect sensing, power electronics and communication within cyber-physical systems, control smart grids in real time, optimize charging and storage systems, and thus increase the efficiency, reliability and resilience of electrified energy and mobility infrastructures.
„And even though the vision of comprehensive electrification is currently gaining traction mainly in Europe, it has international implications and presents a global alternative to the current CO2-intensive society.“ — Uroš Mali, Director Technical Marketing, EBV Elektronik
From one-way power grids to the Internet of Energy
The expansion and modernisation of power grids through smart grids form the backbone of an all-electric society. The integration of IoT technologies further increases interoperability between intelligent energy systems. This gives rise to an “Internet of Energy” (IoE), enabling automated consumption optimisation, higher network efficiency and intelligent overall system management.
Current trends in the Internet of Energy include:
For intelligent IoE grids, power-electronic components such as intelligent relays, communication processors, real-time data loggers and secure embedded systems are required. These must meet high demands in terms of scalability, reliability and cybersecurity. Components with integrated encryption and authentication – for example in smart metering and gateway applications – are becoming essential in light of regulatory requirements. Demand is also increasing for EMC-robust PCBs, high-resolution ADCs and DACs, and components for real-time communication in energy management systems, such as CLS control boxes or blockchain- and IoT-based grid infrastructures.
“The backbone of the All-Electric-Society is digitalisation. You can call it IoT. But at the end of the day it is communication between the different devices of the energy ecosystem.”
- Andrej Orel, Segment Director Industrial & Energy
Sector coupling creates an integrated energy system
The All Electric Society is based on the convergence of formerly separate sectors such as energy, industry, mobility, infrastructure and agriculture, which are brought together through the Internet of Energy. Standardisation initiatives such as Ethernet IEEE 802.3, OPC UA and digital twins (IDTA) support this coupling by providing interfaces for electrical systems and data exchange.

Current AI trends in the All Electric Society
Electronics for AI-based energy systems require specialized edge processors, AI accelerators, DSPs, integrated security elements and large, energy-efficient memory components. These enable advanced forecasting models, autonomous grid control and self-learning fault detection within energy management systems. As AI algorithms place high demands on local processing, real-time capability and system integration, development is increasingly moving towards modular, hardware-accelerated AI designs and validation in safety-critical applications.
Wide-band-gap components increase efficiency in energy conversion
Wide-band-gap components such as silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) enable power electronics with higher efficiency, lower losses and higher switching frequencies compared to silicon. Their wide band gap allows compact, temperature-resistant inverters for e-mobility, heat pumps, chargers and Power-to-X applications. This reduces system costs, size and energy consumption while improving grid stability and the integration of renewable energy.
