Iberdrola S.A.

I · AI Analysis

The brief

Iberdrola generates, transmits, and distributes electricity across multiple continents, with a strong emphasis on renewable sources like onshore and offshore wind, solar, and hydroelectric power [Yahoo Finance]. The company also sells electricity and gas to retail customers, offers energy services like heat pumps and electric vehicle charging, and is developing green hydrogen production [Yahoo Finance].

Iberdrola is a Spanish utility giant operating across Europe, the Americas, and Australia, with 46,177 MW of installed capacity focused heavily on renewable energy like wind, solar, and hydro [Yahoo Finance]. The company just completed a $4.2 billion sale of its Mexico business to Grupo Cox, one of 2025's largest energy deals, while continuing to expand solar projects in Brazil [Yahoo Finance]. With a market cap of €132.3 billion and revenue of €45.5 billion, Iberdrola is positioning itself as a major clean energy player, though it carries moderate financial concerns with a health score of 4.7/10 [Yahoo Finance] [Sentinellis calculation].

Iberdrola is financially stable but carries elevated debt and modest profitability metrics that warrant attention.

Figures come from company filings and market data. The Sentinellis health score and the wording attached to it are our interpretation of those figures, not numbers the company reported.

Not investment advice and not a recommendation to buy or sell. Sentinellis holds no positions in the companies it covers, takes no payment from issuers, and has no broker referral arrangements.
