Neoenergia, the only Brazilian energy company recognised as a leader in brand sustainability by Kantar

Neoenergia, subsidiary of the Iberdrola Group in Brazil, has been ranked among the country’s highest-rated companies in terms of brand sustainability, according to the global BrandSustainability 2026 index, compiled by the consultancy firm Kantar.

Based on a study analysing consumer perceptions of brands’ social and environmental practices and their ability to generate trust and value, the company has achieved second place overall in Brazil and is the only company in the Brazilian energy sector to have been awarded ‘leader’ status.

Among the initiatives that have contributed to this ranking are the School for Women Electricians, which has trained some 1,300 women and recruited more than 1,000 of them onto Neoenergia’s workforce; the Vale Luz programme, which allows recyclable waste to be exchanged for discounts on electricity bills; and energy efficiency measures, such as the replacement of more than 480,000 light bulbs with LED technology by 2025.

This recognition reinforces the Iberdrola Group’s commitment to a just energy transition, capable of combining electrification with social and economic development in the communities where it operates.
