Sweden imported €3.01 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 2.8% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 78 companies have won 125 public supply contracts for electric motors, generators and transformers in Sweden, in 77 award notices from 46 public buyers.
  • 86.4% of these awards went to companies registered in Sweden; the most frequent foreign origin is Croatia.

In proportion

All public purchasing in Sweden — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €106 billion in 2025, 17.6% 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.
