Endesa gives green light to partnerships with renewable energy firms, cautions government about influx of companies eager to invest in Spain.

Endesa has faced significant challenges in the past year, leading to a 71% decrease in profits. The Italian parent company, Enel, brought about major changes in leadership and a reshuffle of the board. Despite these obstacles, Endesa held its Shareholders’ Meeting in Madrid and CEO Jose Bogas discussed potential partnerships to support renewable projects and the limitations of Spain’s electrical networks.

Bogas emphasized the need for regulatory improvements and the elimination of investment caps in electrical networks to facilitate growth and development. He urged Spain to align with other European countries on public remuneration for these investments to drive economic opportunities such as manufacturing industries and data centers. Endesa’s strategic plan for 2024-2026 includes a significant investment in Networks, Renewables, and Customers with the possibility of partnering with others on renewable energy projects.

The CEO also addressed challenges posed by government tax limits that impacted the company’s investment capacity. However, Endesa remains focused on driving growth in the renewable energy sector while navigating an evolving landscape within the energy industry in Spain and Italy. The composition of the new board reflects Enel’s increased control and influence, aiming to rebalance representation in alignment with its ownership stake.

In conclusion, Endesa’s future initiatives are closely tied to regulatory frameworks, industry dynamics, and potential partnerships. The company is committed to driving growth while navigating challenges within its sector.
