Belgium imported €3.78 billion of goods in the customs headings matched to electricity distribution and control apparatus in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 8536, 8537, 8538 and 8535; all buyers, not only public ones), up 10.2% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 37 companies have won 88 public supply contracts for electricity distribution and control apparatus in Belgium, in 31 award notices from 14 public buyers.
  • 77.3% of these awards went to companies registered in Belgium; the most frequent foreign origin is Germany.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Belgium — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €99.6 billion in 2025, 15.5% of GDP (Eurostat). Award notices on TED cover only the contracts above the EU thresholds, so they show who wins, not the whole of that spending.
