Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:ENPH), a global energy technology company, announced today that Peter van Berkel has been appointed general manager for Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA). He is focused on building scale into Enphase’s EMEA business and further expanding the company’s core value proposition of quality, reliability and innovation.

Peter van Berkel joins Enphase with more than 20 years of experience at Philips Electronics, where he was responsible for global product strategy and planning, marketing, sales and account management.
