BILBAO EXHIBITION CENTRE ACOGERÁ LA CONFERENCIA Y EXPOSICIÓN ENLIT EUROPE EN 2025

Iberdrola has entered into a strategic alliance with Enlit, a media and events company at the forefront of energy transition in Europe.

Thanks to this partnership, the fascinating city of Bilbao will host the Enlit Europe conference and exhibition in 2025. The event will take place at the Bilbao Exhibition Centre.

Before then, the two companies will work together to highlight the European energy sector’s challenges and opportunities.

This alliance will be launched this year in Paris during this year’s Enlit Europe, where Elena León Muñoz, Managing Director of Networks of the Iberdrola Group, and Nicolas Arcauz, Director of Smart Grids at Iberdrola Spain, will be among the high-level speakers.

Asís Canales Abaitua, Iberdrola’s Director of People and Services, said the collaboration “aligns perfectly with our mission to promote sustainable energy solutions and contribute to the global energy transition. We are delightedto bring Enlit Europe to Bilbao in 2025”.

Paddy Young, Director of Enlit, hailed the partnership with Iberdrola as “a significant milestone demonstrating the trust and credibility that our brand has garnered in a short period.”

This year’s edition of Enlit Europe in Paris will be the third iteration of the event, which next year will travel to Milan before coming to Bilbao in 2025. Enlit also manages three media brands: Power Engineering International, Smart Energy International, and Enlit World.

For Young, Bilbao “will provide an exceptional setting for this event, and Iberdrola’s participation will undoubtedly enhance the experience for exhibitors and visitors alike,” adding that the collaboration will leverage Iberdrola’s extensive experience and network in the energy sector to reinforce Enlit’s commitment to delivering high-quality content programmes in sync with the evolving energy market.

Traditionally, there has been a fruitful public-private partnership in the Basque Country. Regional authorities, including the Basque Government, the Provincial Council of Bizkaia, and the Bilbao City Council, are collaborating and committed to the success of this comprehensive energy event.

Canales added that “Iberdrola is dedicated to clean energy solutions and sustainable grids and is looking forward to joining Enlit to shape the future of energy dialogue and innovation. Iberdrola’s Global Smart Grids Innovation Hub, located in Bilbao, has thus established itself as a global centre of innovation and knowledge in smart grids to help respond to the challenges of the energy transition. The centre is a driving force for innovation, combining Iberdrola’s technological capacity with more than 80 collaborating entities and companies.”
