Company Summary

Description

IBERDROLA has undergone a wide-ranging transformation over the last ten years which has enabled it to advance through the ranks to become the number one Spanish energy group, one of the Spanish main companies on the Ibex 35 by market capitalisation, the world leader in renewable energies, and one of the world's top power companies. Our work has led us to an international reference position, becoming one of the leading operators in the UK, one of the largest electricity utilities in the United States, the main private generator of Mexico and as the electricity supplier with the most customers in Brazil. This positive evolution has been made possible thanks to a strategic vision that has enabled IBERDROLA to anticipate the needs of the energy sector throughout three stages: 2001-2006: planning focused on energy business growth principally in Spain and Latin America, with the company succeeding in doubling its size and profits by the end of the period. Installed capacity rose to 30,500 MW from 16,500 while net earnings came to €1.66 billion in 2006. 2007-2013: strategy has been marked by strong international expansion, with the integration of ScottishPower External link, opens in new window.

The company will continue to develop its sustainable, long-term business model, through its investment programme totalling €11.2 billion for the 2014-2016 period, primarily earmarked for the areas of electricity transmission and distribution networks and renewable energies within its flagship markets.
