Construction of the Wikinger offshore wind farm is well under way
Wikinger is the first offshore wind farm built entirely by Iberdrola. The approximate investment in these facilities is €1.4 billion. Once inaugurated, the wind farm will generate enough power to cover the electricity needs of over 350,000 homes, thus avoiding the annual emission of 600,000 tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere.
Stakeholders: at the centre of our strategy
We are developing a responsible and sustainable business model, which focuses on the wellbeing of people, the protection of the environment and the economic and social progress in the communities in which the company operates.
Social Contribution
As a driver of economic and social progress, during 2016 the Company has welcomed 2,638 new professionals, creating 288,000 jobs in the countries where it is present. As well, it has reduced its emissions by 31% in the last five years and it has placed as the first electric Company to be included in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index.
Leading promoter of women's sport
Through the Women, Health and Sport initiative, Iberdrola has strengthened its commitment to gender equality and is contributing to promote a source of positive values for a healthier, more equal and fairer society. Currently, 15 federations are receiving the Company's support: a global pledge to fostering Spanish women's sport.
