dK Elektra

What dK Elektra does

dK Elektra (operating under the trade name De Kever Installaties) is a family-owned Dutch electrical engineering contractor founded in 1994 and headquartered in Son en Breugel, Netherlands. The firm specializes in electrical installations for petrol/gas stations (tankstations), with secondary work in educational institutions, commercial buildings, and retail chains. With approximately 14 employees and nationwide coverage via regionally stationed field technicians, the company delivers project-based electrical services spanning conventional wiring, LED lighting, security systems, HVAC, data networks, and periodic inspections.

The company's core technical offerings center on energy infrastructure for fueling stations and convenience retail, including EV charging (AC/DC/HPC), stationary energy storage, and a patented two-color contour lighting solution for forecourt canopies. dK Elektra has executed 100+ BP station conversions to the Albert Heijn to-go convenience-retail concept, evidencing specialized competency in integrating forecourt electrical systems with c-store buildouts. Certifications held include ISO 9001, VCA**, InstallQ, and KIWA F-Gassen BRL 100, qualifying the firm for regulated electrical and refrigerant work.

Revenue is generated through project-based contracting with named enterprise clients including Shell, BP, TotalEnergies, OK Tankstations, Avia, Albert Heijn, and Rolande. The business model relies on long-term framework relationships and rolling rollout programs rather than transactional work, with the BP/AH-to-go conversion pipeline representing a recurring multi-year revenue stream. Pricing is contracted per project, and family ownership indicates earnings reinvestment into capability expansion (EV charging, energy storage, hydrogen infrastructure via Rolande) rather than external fundraising.
