Torshov Elektro

What Torshov Elektro does

Torshov Elektro AS is a private Norwegian electrical contracting company headquartered in Oslo, founded in 2012. The firm delivers installation, rehabilitation, and maintenance services across residential, commercial, and housing-cooperative properties, with a service portfolio spanning electrical installations, fuse-panel and distribution-board upgrades, EV charging infrastructure, lighting design and installation, solar PV systems, smart-home integration, fire safety and security systems, electrical inspections, and electrothermography. It also offers compliance consulting related to Norway's Transparency Act (Åpenhetsloven).

Operationally, the company holds a stack of Norwegian trade and regulatory credentials — including Sentral Godkjenning, StartBank, Nkom registration, Miljøfyrtårn (Eco-Lighthouse) certification, NHO Elektro and Nelfo trade-body membership, and approval as a "godkjent lærebedrift" (apprenticeship trainer) — and is a member of the Norgeseliten quality-assured contractor network. Notable reference projects include electrical and lighting works at the Nobel Peace Center (rehabilitation completed November 2023, with Thorendahl AS and Luxia Belysning AS), award-winning lighting at Holmenkollen Park Hotel, lighting at Hotel Christiania Teater, the Folketeaterpassasjen lighting upgrade, and the Storgata 8 entrance project with Eiendomsspar.

The business model is project-based professional services delivered direct-to-customer, with quote-based pricing (consultation, phone-based estimates at 22 79 66 60, website contact forms) and revenue drawn from three primary segments: private homeowners, commercial/business customers (including hospitality, museums, retail, offices), and housing cooperatives (borettslag/sameier). The company operates exclusively within Norway, with all activities concentrated in the Oslo region. GTM relies on a website with SEO/blog content, Facebook and Instagram presence, Google reviews (5/5 rating), and Norgeseliten network distribution; revenue, headcount, and pricing figures are not publicly disclosed beyond a stated 11–50 employee range.

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Eltel Group: Nordic-wide power and communications infrastructure group that also installs EV-charging networks and electrical services at scale — broader than Torshov but overlapping on the EV infrastructure and commercial electrical installation perimeter.

Direct peers

• Assemblin Norge: Norwegian arm of Assemblin Group (Sweden) providing electrical, heating/sanitary and ventilation installations across commercial and residential projects — directly competitive with Torshov on installation scope and customer profile.
• Caverion Norge: Finnish-listed technical service provider (Caverion Oyj) with a substantial Norwegian electrical contracting and building solutions business, competing for the same commercial, public-sector and residential EV-charging tenders Torshov targets.
• YIT Norge: Norwegian arm of Finnish construction services group YIT, providing electrical and building systems installation for new construction and renovation — directly comparable on residential and commercial electrical contracting work.
• GK Norge: Norwegian-owned technical contractor (part of the GK Gruppen alliance) covering electrical, HVAC and building services for commercial properties — comparable in scope and Oslo-based customer mix, with larger resources for major commercial projects.
• OneCo: Norwegian technical services and EV-infrastructure installer delivering electrical contracting, smart-charging rollouts and telecom infrastructure — a same-country, same-customer-set peer with a heavier EV-infrastructure tilt than Torshov.
• Bravida Norge: Norwegian arm of Bravida Group (Sweden), the largest Nordic multi-technical service provider covering electrical installation, EV charging and building services — directly comparable to Torshov's core trade but at substantially greater scale and geographic reach.

Others

• Plejd: Norwegian smart-home lighting control platform installed by Norgeseliten electricians including Torshov; included as an ecosystem enabler/complementary player rather than a competitor — illustrates the vendor relationships that anchor Torshov's smart home offering.
