CPV Code 092, Electricity
What does CPV code 092 cover?
CPV code 092 (Electricity) covers the procurement of electrical energy by public contracting authorities. This includes electricity supply contracts for buildings and properties, procurement of green electricity with guarantees of origin, balancing energy and peak load coverage, and supply of critical infrastructure with uninterruptible power.
Electricity is an essential procurement item for public institutions. Schools, hospitals, government buildings, street lighting, wastewater treatment plants and IT data centres all require reliable electricity supplies. The public sector is one of the largest electricity consumers in Germany, giving this CPV code particular market importance.
Market trends
The public electricity procurement market has changed significantly in recent years:

- Bundled tenders: Municipal purchasing groups bundle their demand for better conditions
- Dynamic pricing: Flexible tariffs linked to exchange prices are increasingly replacing fixed-price contracts
- Self-generation: Tenders for PV systems on public roofs are rising sharply
