EDP Renewables

Company Overview

EDP Renewables (EDPR), a subsidiary of EDP Group

Madrid, Spain

2007

Approximately 3,080 employees (source: tradingeconomics.com). Estimated revenues of $947.6 million in 2023 (source: stockanalysis.com).

What We Do

EDP Renewables (EDPR) specializes in renewable energy generation, primarily focusing on wind energy, being the fourth largest global generator by net installed capacity. Additionally, the company is expanding its activities in solar and offshore wind energy. EDPR develops, constructs, manages, and operates power plants that generate electricity from these renewable sources, adding 3.8 GW of capacity in 2024 backed by a gross investment of €4.1 billion, marking a record in its total managed capacity (source: wikipedia.org). Its products and services encompass the management of renewable projects throughout their lifecycle, including development, operation, and production of wind and solar energy, supplying energy sectors worldwide (source: cbinsights.com). EDPR's target markets span 13 countries, serving utilities, energy buyers, and grids in Europe, North America, and South America, distinguished by its steady growth and robust development portfolio (source: wikipedia.org).

Projects and Track Record

Among EDPR's notable projects is a portfolio of five operational solar projects in the Lazio and Puglia regions of Italy, with a total capacity of 248 MW, including a 17 MW expansion, sold in December 2025 to Encavis for €300 million (source: wikipedia.org). Additionally, the company completed the sale of three operational wind farms and two plants under construction to Onex in July 2021 for €530 million, as well as the acquisition of a 28 MW solar plant in Vietnam (source: wikipedia.org). Ongoing projects reflect record additions of 3.8 GW in 2024, contributing to platforms in Brazil, the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Spain, Portugal, France, the UK, Poland, Italy, Romania, Belgium, and Greece (source: edpr-investors.com).

Recent Developments

In the past two years, EDPR completed the sale of its Italian solar portfolio of 248 MW + 17 MW to Encavis for €300 million, marking a milestone in its divestment process (source: wikipedia.org). The company achieved record additions of 3.8 GW of capacity in 2024 with an investment of €4.1 billion, alongside rebranding efforts that link its identity to energy transition commitments and its presence in 26 markets with over 2,800 global employees (source: edp.com). No significant acquisitions, mergers, or funding rounds were detailed after 2023, beyond the investments in 2024, although the historical context includes EDP's acquisition of Viesgo in 2020, which doubled distribution in Spain (source: wikipedia.org).

Working There

EDPR offers roles in development, construction, operation, and management of wind, solar, and offshore projects, with departments in engineering, project finance, operations and maintenance, and platforms for Europe-Brazil, North America, and Offshore, supporting over 2,800-3,080 global employees (source: wikipedia.org). Hiring takes place in key locations such as the Madrid headquarters, the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Portugal, France, the UK, Poland, Italy, Romania, Belgium, and Greece, aligning with operations in 13 markets and the 2024 expansion (source: wikipedia.org). The company culture emphasizes global teamwork for record achievements like the additions of 3.8 GW, with over 2,800 employees in 26 markets, indicating a growth-oriented international environment (source: edp.com).
