Sustainability

Greenwashing, also known as eco-washing, involves presenting a company, product or service as more environmentally friendly than the available data supports.

On February 14 we celebrate World Energy Day, a global initiative to raise awareness of the importance of this resource in our daily lives and the need to achieve responsible and efficient production and use of energy resources. In line with our commitment to sustainability, at Iberdrola we work to bring electricity to everyone and optimise its use.

The Iberdrola Group is committed to sustainable finance as its main instrument for financing projects that benefit our planet, including those aimed at the electrification of the economy and the creation of long-term value. Discover what sustainable finance is, how it works and the pioneering initiatives we are implementing to make a positive impact on society and the environment.

True to our commitment to transparency, every year we publish our Ecological Footprint (CEF), a summary of the Group's environmental performance. AENOR accredits that we have calculated and identified all the environmental impacts derived from our activities in all the countries in which we are present, with the aim of improving and reducing them.

How can we move from the energy transition to electrification? Climate change is a reality that calls for the adoption of new energy systems that are sustainable, self-sufficient and stable in every region. Ignacio Galán talks to Nicolai Tangen, CEO of Norges Bank Investment Management, in his podcast ‘In Good Company’ about his career, leadership and human talent at the Iberdrola Group, and about the challenges currently facing the global energy system.

Every 24 October, the International Day against Climate Change is celebrated, an event created with the aim of raising awareness among companies, governments and citizens of the devastating effects of global warming. On this day of reflection and global action, the Iberdrola Group reaffirms its commitment to the fight against climate change and its determination to promote specific measures to counteract one of the greatest challenges of our time.

The circular economy implies a cultural change in the way we understand the production and consumption system in order to deal with a lack of resources, environmental impacts, value creation and employment.

Every October 8, scientists and engineers around the world celebrate World Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Day, an opportunity to highlight the importance of this chemical element and its role in the transition to a cleaner and more equitable energy future. Fully aligned with this objective, at Iberdrola we are working to accelerate the clean production of green hydrogen and to find ways of safe and sustainable storage.
