Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Denmark awarded 20 supply contracts for electric motors, generators and transformers through award notices on TED; the 15 of them that state a value (75%) add up to €82.4 million. Denmark imported €2.07 billion of goods in the customs headings matched to electric motors, generators and transformers in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 8504, 8501, 8503 and 8502; all buyers, not only public ones), up 9.6% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 43 companies have won 105 public supply contracts for electric motors, generators and transformers in Denmark, in 72 award notices from 32 public buyers.
  • 50.5% of these awards went to companies registered in Denmark; the most frequent foreign origin is Italy.

  • 18.4% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Denmark — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €54.5 billion in 2025, 13% 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.
