Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in Netherlands awarded 16 supply contracts for petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy through award notices on TED; the 6 of them that state a value (37.5%) add up to €17 million, a floor rather than the full contract value.

  • Since November 2023, 48 companies have won 82 public supply contracts for petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy in Netherlands, in 50 award notices from 45 public buyers.
  • 76.8% of these awards went to companies registered in Netherlands; the most frequent foreign origin is Switzerland.

  • 32.5% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Netherlands — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €242 billion in 2025, 20.7% 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.
