Iberdrola breaks its quarterly record for distributed energy due to increased demand and electrification of the economy

Iberdrola beat its historical figures for electricity distributed through its networks in one quarter with 62,577 GWh, 1.7% more than in the same period of 2024, as reported to the National Securities Market Commission (CNMV).

This good operational performance of the networks business is based on the increase in electricity demand in all the areas where the company carries out this activity - such as Spain, the United Kingdom, the United States and Brazil - and, likewise, on the greater electrification of the economy.

The company has reached 25,222 GWh of renewable generation during the first three months of the year, 4.9% more than in the same period of the previous year.  By country, the increases in production in Brazil (+24.6%) and the United States (+8.3%) stand out. Spain has once again reached maximum levels of generation in the first part of the year, exceeding 10,737 GWh of renewable energy, which represents an increase of 2.4%. 

Iberdrola has installed more than 2,511 MW of renewable energy in the last twelve months, 5.4% more than in the same period last year. In this way, the group's total renewable capacity stands at 44,675 MW. Of particular note is the commissioning of the emblematic Saint Brieuc offshore wind project in Brittany (496 MW). 

Commitment to electrification

These quarterly energy data confirm Iberdrola's commitment to the electrification of the economy, energy self-sufficiency, security of supply and the transformation of the energy sector, all thanks to the investments made, which exceed 160,000 million euros, in the last twenty-five years. 

Europe's leading electricity company by market capitalisation generates 100% emission-free energy in countries such as the United Kingdom, Brazil, France, Italy, Germany, Poland, Portugal and Greece. Emission-free production reaches 92% in Spain.
