Y.E.S. You Empower Society

All in one place

EDP Group invests in social responsibility programs in several countries in Europe, South America, North America, Africa, and Asia-Pacific. We are committed to contributing to communities through its own initiatives, donations, and volunteer work, focusing on ensuring a fair energy transition that leaves no one behind. 

Although Fair Energy Transition is the main focus, EDP also invests in Culture through its foundations in Brazil, Spain, and Portugal, as well as in emergency aid (to deal with natural disasters, wars, etc.) and other specific needs to support local communities.

It's all developed under the Brand Y.E.S. You Empower Society.
