The construction of the Aldeadávila dam more than half a century ago represented one of the most important milestones in Iberdrola's history in Spain. This hydroelectric facility, located in a canyon in the Arribes del Duero Natural Park in Salamanca, is one of the largest generators of renewable electricity in the country, enough to supply 733,000 homes.
Solar photovoltaic energy is one of the most important and well-established renewable energy sources. For the past few years, floating solar PV has been gaining ground, which, according to the World Bank, could double installed capacity. At the moment, it has gone from 61 MW in 2015 to more than 3 GW in 2021, with 688 MW added in 2020 alone.

Decarbonisation means reducing to the minimum the greenhouse gas emissions – which mainly come from the use of fossil fuels – that are generated by any activity. Gradually decarbonising the economy is a global challenge, as these emissions heat the planet and worsen climate change.
Iberdrola Group, through its subsidiary in Spain, has built in Badajoz the Núñez de Balboa photovoltaic plant, which, with 500 MWp of installed capacity and the ability to supply clean energy to 250,000 homes, has become the largest in Europe.
