ELEQ Group Acquires Tefelen to Enhance Energy Solutions

On February 12, 2026, ELEQ Group, a prominent player in the energy sector, confirmed its acquisition of Tefelen, a market leader in segmented, resin-insulated busbar systems. While the financial details of the deal remain undisclosed, the acquisition is poised to enhance ELEQ’s product portfolio and operational capabilities in high-demand energy environments.

Founded in 1946, ELEQ Group specializes in precision transformers, measuring instruments, smart inverters, and connection boxes designed to improve the reliability and efficiency of electrical networks. Tefelen, also established in 1946, has built a reputation for its innovative busbar systems, serving network operators and heavy industries where safety and reliability are paramount.

The acquisition aligns with ELEQ’s strategic vision to adapt to the rapidly evolving energy market. Reinout Getreuer, CEO of ELEQ Group, stated, “The energy market is changing quickly and demands highly innovative solutions. The broader product portfolio and international reach of ELEQ seamlessly align with Tefelen’s specialized busbar expertise.”

As electrical installations become more compact while needing to handle higher voltages and currents, traditional cable solutions are reaching their limits. Both companies recognize the need for safer, space-efficient, and high-performance alternatives. Tefelen’s advanced busbar systems provide a solution, enabling safer energy transmission in confined spaces while meeting increasing power demands with greater stability and durability.

Getreuer emphasized the importance of maintaining Tefelen’s brand identity post-acquisition, stating, “Tefelen will continue to operate under its own name, preserving its strong brand and market position. The existing team will play a central role within the organization, ensuring continuity in quality, service, and customer relationships.”

Roland Walger, Director at Tefelen, noted, “We have consciously chosen a phased integration approach, where both organizations will gradually align processes, systems, and practices.” This strategy aims to minimize disruption while maximizing the synergies between the two companies.

The acquisition is expected to strengthen ELEQ’s market position by integrating Tefelen’s specialized products into its portfolio. It also opens potential entry into new international markets where Tefelen has a presence, enhancing ELEQ’s geographic footprint.

Looking ahead, the integration process will focus on fostering collaboration in research and development, improving supply chain efficiencies, and leveraging combined purchasing power to reduce costs. As the energy sector continues to evolve, this acquisition positions ELEQ as a leading technology partner in the global energy transition, combining technical expertise with a long-term focus on customer needs.
