Provektor AB is a Swedish electrical engineering and industrial automation company founded in 1949 by Sven Johansson in Skara, Vastra Gotaland. Originally established as an electrical contracting business, the company expanded over subsequent decades into industrial automation and rebranded as Provektor in 2010 to reflect its broadened scope. In March 2021, Soltech Energy Sweden AB acquired 100% of Provektor's shares for SEK 53 million, and the company now operates as a Soltech subsidiary while retaining its Provektor brand and operational independence.
Headquartered at Afsengatan 2, Skara, with additional offices in Skövde, Lidköping, Vara, Falköping, Töreboda, Karlsborg, Tibro, Hova, Malmö, and Trönninge, Provektor employs approximately 150 staff and generates annual revenues just above SEK 200 million. The company is described as Skaraborg's largest privately owned electrical engineering company prior to the Soltech acquisition.
Provektor's automation and robotics capabilities include PLC programming and control system design, industrial robot gripper manufacturing (produced in-house), control cabinet construction, and electrical installation and design. The gripper manufacturing capability positions the company as a component supplier within robotics integration projects. End markets served include manufacturing, logistics, agriculture, wastewater and waterworks utilities, construction, and automated sorting facilities. The company also offers security and alarm systems and energy solutions including solar installations and biogas plant development, reflecting the broader Soltech Energy portfolio alignment.
