History
Iberdrola, a Spanish energy provider and global electric utility, was established in 1992 and is one of the largest electricity providers worldwide, serving over 100 million customers. Its roots date back to 1796, with the creation of the Sociedad Económica de Amigos del País, a precursor to the Spanish electricity industry. Iberduero, formed by Francisco Saenz de Tejada in 1809, developed Spain's first coal-fired power plants, later becoming Electricidad de España.
In 1890, Union Eléctrica Madrileña (UEM) was founded, focusing on electricity generation, transmission, and distribution in Madrid. Generadora de Electricidad de Cerro Navia (Cerro del Soto) was also established in 1924 in Barcelona, providing electricity to the city, alongside Power Companies of the Valencian Community and Andalucía.
UEM and Cerro Navia merged in 1992 to become Unión FENOSA, with Iberdrola subsequently established, specializing in hydro, nuclear, and thermal power plants. During the 1990s, Iberdrola expanded internationally, investing in the United States, France, and Latin America.
In 2006, Iberdrola became Spain's leading electricity provider and launched the 100% sustainable energy supply in the UK. It further expanded with the acquisition of Scottish Power in 2007, becoming the world's largest provider of renewable energy. In 2017, Iberdrola became the top generator of wind power worldwide, actively investing in renewable energy in Europe and the US.
Currently, the company has a presence in 38 countries globally and serves more than 46 million customers.
