I greatly admire all of the positive work that the association has been delivering for many years.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIberdrola\u2019s commitment to ESG principles has always been driven by our own internal belief that we must do all that we can to achieve a positive impact in the communities that we serve. This is why we included the Sustainability Development Goals in our corporate by-laws and created the concept of a social dividend.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAs we continue to invest and grow in the years ahead, we remain committed to demonstrating that decarbonization is fully compatible with value creation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nUnder Mr Gal\u00e1n`s leadership over the past two decades, Iberdrola has invested over $150 billion to drive the transition to clean energy. The company\u2019s investment strategy has been coupled with a full commitment to the creation of sustainable value for all its stakeholders (\u201cSocial dividend\u201d). In 2022 alone Iberdrola welcomed 4,700 new hires into the group, and its activities around the world now support 400,000 jobs. Iberdrola\u2019s purchases with suppliers exceeded $19 billion in 2022, and over $8 billion was paid in taxation globally, supporting public finances.<\/p>\n<p>\nIberdrola\u2019s focus on renewable energy and smart grid networks has placed it at the forefront of the energy transition. In the last two decades, the company has grown from the 20th largest electricity utility in the world, to the second largest by market cap, at the same time as leading the industry in climate ambition.<\/p>\n<p>\nMr Gal\u00e1n has overseen the closure of all of Iberdrola\u2019s 17 coal and fuel oil plants across the world at the same time as establishing an industry leading renewable energy capacity of 40,000 megawatts (MW).<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.iberdrola.com%2Fabout-us%2Fiberdrola-strategic-plan&amp;esheet=53407376&amp;newsitemid=20230525005547&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=More+than+%2450+billion+of+investments+is+planned+between+2023+and+2025&amp;index=1&amp;md5=03bc3f2430c289ac439eec8bef552379\">More than $50 billion of investments is planned between 2023 and 2025<\/a>, which will underpin the company\u2019s ambitious Climate Action Plan.
