西班牙电力公用事业及可再生能源开发商伊比德罗拉（Iberdrola）于周二超越总部位于佛罗里达州的NextEra Energy，以超过1410亿欧元的市值成为全球市值最大的电力供应商。一位发言人表示，伊比德罗拉不断增强的实力源于其更广泛的全球布局，其资产遍布欧洲、北美、南美和澳大利亚。
Iberdrola, the Spanish electric utility and renewable energy developer, surpassed Florida-based NextEra Energy as the world’s largest power provider by market capitalization on Tuesday, reaching above €141 billion. Iberdrola’s growing strength comes from its broader global footprint, which includes assets in Europe, North and South America, and Australia, a spokesperson said.
NextEra和伊比德罗拉均在大型公用事业级可再生能源领域进行了重大投资，并着手抓住数据中心和全行业电气化带来的爆发式需求。不过，如果美国监管机构批准NextEra与Dominion拟议的670亿美元合并案，NextEra可能会很快重夺王座。—— Tim McDonnell
Both NextEra and Iberdrola have made major investments in utility-scale renewables, and moved to capture explosive demand from data centers and economy-wide electrification. NextEra could be back in the throne soon, however, if US regulators approve its proposed $67 billion merger with Dominion. — Tim McDonnell
