Endesa SA

ISIN: ES0230670210 | Spain | Europe
Score 2 - Moderate
Full assessment

Endesa has established a systematic verification process for aligning its indirect lobbying through industry associations with its climate change strategy, but it does not disclose governance details for its direct advocacy or name who oversees these efforts. In particular, the company "systematically verifies the consistency of the associations' positions with the climate policies," and explains that this "verification process is carried out in two stages: (i) before joining the association, through an in-depth analysis of the body's by-laws; (ii) after joining the association, by actively contributing to its work and/or taking positions of responsibility within it or promoting the Endesa's position within working groups." The firm also affirms a "public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement," to which it responds "Yes," and ensures associations "operate in full compliance with the objectives of the Paris Agreement and the decarbonisation roadmap established by the company," indicating clear indirect lobbying alignment. However, the company does not disclose a specific individual or formal body responsible for overseeing the alignment of its lobbying activities, and we found no evidence of a process governing its direct lobbying efforts.
