Iberdrola has installed one of its photovoltaic projects in Castilla y León (Spain), a new wind farm and photovoltaic plant in Villarino, which adds 50 MW of green energy to its portfolio. Once the infrastructure is up and running, it generates enough clean energy to power the equivalent of 27,000 homes and avoid emitting 12,000 tons of CO₂/year into the atmosphere.

As part of our commitment to renewable energies in Spain, we have commissioned two photovoltaic plants in Cedillo, Extremadura, with a combined installed capacity of 100 MW, plus a new 375 MW plant currently under construction. These facilities are designed to have the lowest possible environmental impact.

The Cortes-La Muela hydroelectric complex, located in the municipality of Cortes de Pallás (Valencia) in the Júcar river basin, has a turbination capacity of 1,762 MW and 1,807 MW of pumping capacity. With a total investment of more than €1.2 billion, La Muela became the largest pumped-storage hydroelectric plant in Europe.

Iberdrola group, through its subsidiary Neoenergia*, has built the Baixo Iguaçu power station in Brazil. The facility, which was commissioned on December 2018, has an installed capacity of over 245 MW and supplies renewable energy to one million people.

With almost a century of history, the Ricobayo I and Ricobayo II dams and hydroelectric power stations in Zamora were pioneers in electricity production in Europe. It was not in vain that the reservoir was considered one of the largest on the continent with its 1,148 hm³. Today, both plants have a total installed capacity of 328 MW.

The Tâmega hydroelectric complex in northern Portugal is one of the largest energy initiatives in the country's history and one of the largest energy storage facilities in Europe. This system includes three dams with a combined capacity of 1,158 MW and two wind farms that will reach 274 MW.
