How many electrical tenders are open in the UK?

40 open UK public sector electrical tenders were listed on Find a Tender, Contracts Finder, Public Contracts Scotland and Sell2Wales on 8 October 2026. 712 electrical contracts were awarded in the last twelve months.

Who wins electrical contracts?

Over the last twelve months the suppliers named on the most electrical contract awards were UK Power Networks (6), ETA Projects Limited (5), City Electrical Factors Limited (5). Most suppliers win only one or two, so the market is wider than the top names suggest.

Can small businesses win electrical contracts?

Yes. 58% of the electrical contracts awarded in the last twelve months where the buyer recorded the winner's size went to small and medium-sized businesses (162 of 281).

How do I get electrical tenders by email?

Tender Radar checks every new UK notice each weekday morning against your organisation's profile, scores how well each fits and emails you the ones worth reading, with the electrical contracts coming up for renewal. It is free for 30 days, then £30 a month.

How these figures are worked out: a notice or award is counted here when one of its CPV codes falls in this sector, or its title names the work. Awards are from Find a Tender and Contracts Finder; open tenders from all four UK portals. SME status is as the buyer recorded it on each award notice.
