WHAT CREDENTIALS/INFORMATION DO YOU NEED TO ACCESS THE PORTAL?

If you are an individual shareholder, you can authenticate yourself with your OLS – Shareholders’ Club password and total number of shares (both as owner and co-owner), using either a recognised electronic certificate issued by the Royal Spanish Mint (FNMT), or your DNIe. 

Furthermore, shareholders who are members of the OLS – Shareholders’ Club, or whose shares are held at deposited with entities that provide Iberdrola with the e-mail address of their customers, may also authenticate themselves by entering the QR code included in the proxy and absentee voting card that Iberdrola will send them by e-mail. See demo video.

Shareholders who are legal persons must authenticate themselves with a recognised electronic signature issued by the Royal Spanish Mint. Representatives of legal entities without a recognised electronic signature may grant a proxy or cast an absentee vote through the Participation Portal by submitting an image of the proxy and absentee voting card and by accrediting their authority to attend the General Meeting by submitting a scanned copy of the card and their power of attorney.

If you are a proxy representative, please log into the Participation Portal and send us a scanned copy of the card signed by the shareholder you are representing so that we can verify that they have granted you their proxy. Once verified, we will give you a proxy code that you can then use to authenticate yourself.

WHAT ELSE DOES THE PARTICIPATION PORTAL OFFER?

 Proof of participation

All shareholders taking part in the General Meeting (by granting a proxy, casting an absentee vote or attending) can download a receipt to confirm that their shares or voting instructions have been properly recorded. You can make this request from the date on which your participation in the General Meeting is recorded in the Company’s systems until one month after the meeting is held.

In addition, if you take part through the Participation Portal, your proxy or electronic vote will be securely recorded and verifiable through blockchain technology, which ensures the traceability and immutability of the data recorded. Each vote and electronic proxy is immutably stored and encrypted on the blockchain network, thus ensuring its confidentiality.  See more about blockchain at the 2023 Meeting.

Proxies and absentee votes will be counted subject to verification by the Company of the number of shares registered in the holder’s name five days prior to the General Meeting.

 Download cards

If you have not received your card, or have lost it, we offer you other alternatives to participate in the General Meeting. If you prefer, you can also download a card from the Participation Portal.

Cards issued through this website will reflect the shares registered in the name of the applicant in accordance with information available to the Company on the date of the request. Therefore, the information shown on this card may not coincide with the information shown on the cards issued by the depositaries.
