Therefore, sustainability is not our future distant goal; it has been an integral part of our long-term commitment to the environment and the people in all the regions where we operate.  

EDP's ESG strategy and practices concentrate on accelerating the energy transition, focusing on resilience and climate adaptation, strengthening local community engagement and promoting biodiversity, partnering with suppliers, fostering circularity, and protecting and uplifting our people.
