MADRID, Spain, June 29, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Telvent (Nasdaq:TLVT), the IT
company for a sustainable and secure world, was selected to be part of the 2009
Sustainable Business 20 (SB20): The Top World's Sustainable Stocks.
SustainableBusiness.com, the website and reference business resource directory
that tracks and analyzes green stocks in the world, announced for the eighth
consecutive year the 20 companies it believes are leading the way to sustainable
economies.

Telvent, as well as the other selected companies, met the requirements of the
SB20 jury, composed of the most respected green stock analysts in the world. As
a company focused on information and technology services, Telvent positively
impacts the sustainability and security of the planet through the markets in
which it operates, and contributes to strengthen the pillars of any economy:
energy, transportation, water, environment and agriculture.

Telvent proposes innovative solutions to face today's challenges: managing
multiple sources of electric energy through an interconnected smart grid that
facilitates the sustainable generation and consumption; improving efficiency and
safety of daily commuting of millions of passengers in the world; the
development of agriculture as a way to tackle the big problems that devastate
much of the planet today, or the energy issue closely linked to agriculture
itself.

the recession and period of crisis we are living today, have been able to
dominate their markets, achieving substantial progress in the innovation of
green technologies, maintaining a strong financial position and ability to grow
its business following sustainable strategies; all considered signs of
excellence in management.
