Our facilities
Our distributed electricity generation set a new quarterly record in 2026, reaching 68,645 GWh
This milestone represents a 9.7% increase, which has been achieved thanks to higher demand for electricity as a result of the electrification process we are currently undergoing.
We reached record highs in electricity distributed by the Iberdrola Group at the close of the first quarter of 2026, reaching 68,645 gigawatt-hours (GWh), according to the energy balance data [PDF] presented on April 17 to the National Securities Market Commission (CNMV). This strong operational performance in the networks business is due to the growth in electricity demand across all the areas where the company operates, particularly in the United Kingdom, where distributed energy increased by 72.6% to 14,687 GWh.
On the other hand, the total generation capacity reached 58,887 MW, representing a 3.8% increase compared to the same period last year, with capacity increases in the United States (+693 MW), Australia (+537 MW), Spain (+552 MW), and other European countries (+377 MW).
Additionally, the company has recorded a 2% growth in production, reaching 36,106 GWh. By technology, offshore wind energy has seen the greatest advancement, growing by 42%.

About the Iberdrola Group capacity map
The Iberdrola facility map is an interactive way of viewing the company's main global operating data: the installed capacity of each technology, net electricity production and other data including distributed power, supply points and the Group's customers in all the countries in which we operate.
The information on this map is updated every quarter, based on the results for the period, and it breaks down the installed capacity in each country and region according to the electricity generation technologies operated by the group: renewables (onshore wind, offshore wind, hydroelectric, mini-hydraulic, battery storage, solar and others); nuclear; combined cycle and cogeneration.
