Electric motors, generators and transformers market in Spain: size, suppliers and public contracts

In 2025, public buyers in Spain awarded 136 supply contracts for electric motors, generators and transformers through award notices on TED; the 122 of them that state a value (89.7%) add up to €76.8 million. Spain imported €5.19 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 13.1% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 252 companies have won 434 public supply contracts for electric motors, generators and transformers in Spain, in 300 award notices from 183 public buyers.
  • 98.6% of these awards went to companies registered in Spain; the most frequent foreign origin is France.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Spain — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €192 billion in 2025, 11.3% 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.
