In November 2020, the company presented the most ambitious investment plan in its history, endowed with 75,000 million euros until 2025.
51% of this amount will be dedicated to promoting clean energy with the aim of doubling the group’s renewable power in just five years, reaching 60,000 MW at the end of the period.
Electric grids, the backbone of the ecological transition, will be the second major investment destination, with 40% of the total, to multiply its network asset base by 1.5 times.
The remaining 9% will be invested in new products and services that respond to the needs of its customers in a context of acceleration in the electrification of energy uses with greater digitization.
Likewise, the plan will also strengthen the internationalization of the group: organic investments in all its markets are joined by the integrations of PNM Resources in the United States, Aalto Power in France, CEB-D in Brazil, and Infigen, in Australia, and the entry into new countries such as Sweden, Japan and Poland through the acquisition of an offshore wind portfolio.,
