We harness the sun's energy

Solar light is an essential source of energy for life on Earth. All living organisms, from microscopic bacteria to complex plants and animals, depend either directly or indirectly on sunlight for their survival and growth. This vital energy enables crucial biological processes and sustains the planet's ecosystems. In addition, solar energy enables the production of renewable electricity, providing a sustainable source of energy for as long as the sun shines.

At EDP, we're committed to making this clean, affordable energy accessible to everyone, everywhere.
