Sustainability

At Iberdrola, we are committed to protecting and acting for nature, and we are strengthening our commitment with the launch of our 2030 Biodiversity Plan. This Plan establishes the mechanisms to achieve the ambitious goal of having a net positive impact on biodiversity by 2030 and to drive the transformation towards an energy model in harmony with nature and human beings.

The Iberdrola group is fully committed to eco-efficiency thanks to its sustainable use of natural resources, efficiency in the production and use of energy, emissions reductions, protection of biodiversity and waste and water management.

Digitalisation in the wind energy sector is making significant progress in reducing costs, improving yields and safety, and making decisions more efficiently. But there is still a long way to go, especially when it comes to measuring and exchanging data.

Electric vehicles represent the great promise of sustainable mobility. If electricity and its components are produced from renewable energy sources, this type of car will reduce the environmental impact thanks to rechargeable batteries. But can electric vehicles solve our emissions problems or are they just a mirage in the journey towards a green future?

According to WindEurope, the European wind energy agency, around 14,000 blades could be dismantled across the continent in the next five years, which would amount to between 40,000 and 60,000 tonnes of waste. For this reason, recycling, especially of wind turbine blades, is seen as one of the key challenges for the industry.

United by the wind' is a podcast produced by Iberdrola that delves into the qualities and benefits of this unlimited resource, its influence on the history of civilisations as well as the curiosities surrounding it and its role in meteorological studies and energy production.

Hydrogen could be an important decarbonization tool in the energy mix. Pilot projects are showing how to scale up “green” hydrogen production and bring down costs.

The Global Mobility Call will hold its third edition from 19 to 21 November 2024 at IFEMA Madrid, thanks to the collaboration of global leaders in the mobility sector such as Iberdrola. This congress, which aims to position itself as the largest international platform on sustainable mobility for companies and administrations, has the electricity company as a strategic partner.
