Innovation in our businesses
The private energy company that invests most in R&D&I
At Iberdrola, technological innovation is the main enabler for advancing towards a more electrified, efficient and sustainable model. Only in this way is it possible to improve our processes, optimise operating conditions and strengthen the safety of our facilities, while also reducing environmental impact.
This innovative approach is realised in concrete projects that span our entire value chain: from electricity generation, through distribution, to the electrification of demand. Through our subsidiaries, we develop solutions tailored to the needs of each country and promote a culture of innovation and creativity across our different businesses, as well as in the areas that cut across them.
Generation
We seek continuous improvement in the efficiency of our facilities and the processes associated with production to integrate clean energies into the electricity system in a sustainable, safe and affordable way.
Smart grids
We improve customer service through the evolution of the smart grid model, deepening the digitalisation of the electricity network and advancing towards greater integration between generation, demand and distributed resources. This transformation allows for more dynamic management, strengthens supply quality and enables new energy services.
Energy management
We drive more flexible and efficient energy management through advanced digital solutions that integrate renewables, optimise distributed resources and deliver value to the customer in an increasingly dynamic electricity system.
Customers
We are committed to ongoing research into clean generation technologies, as well as the development of new products and services adapted to the needs of our customers in a changing energy market.
