Sweden imported €2.67 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, 48 companies have won 85 public supply contracts for electricity distribution and control apparatus in Sweden, in 41 award notices from 32 public buyers.
  • 89.4% of these awards went to companies registered in Sweden; the most frequent foreign origin is China.

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.
