"What's good for the planet is good for shareholders"

Ignacio Galán was interviewed on Onda Cero's La Terraza programme where he discussed Iberdrola's recent activities, including the purchase of ENW in the northwest of the UK and the objective of continuing to be a leader in decarbonisation and the energy transition.

During the interview, Galán highlighted the purchase of the electricity company in the northwest of the UK (ENW), which will distribute electricity to 5 million Britons and make Iberdrola one of the two largest electricity companies in the UK. He also referred to a bid to build wind farms in the south of the country, with an investment of up to 6 billion pounds.

He also emphasised Iberdrola's commitment to decarbonisation and the transition to clean energy, a commitment that the company has maintained for more than two decades. He celebrated the company's success on the stock market, reaching historic levels of market capitalisation, with a valuation of 80 billion euros. 

Ignacio Galán highlighted Iberdrola's pioneering role in supporting women's sport. Since 2016, the company has been a strong sponsor of 35 women's sports federations, benefiting 800,000 athletes.
