Diversity and inclusion
We are committed to driving a diverse and inclusive workplace for all
We believe that to fulfill our mission of creating a new energy for the planet, our employees must have the opportunity to feel 100% like themselves.
That is why we are committed to cultivating an equitable and inclusive workplace where everyone feels welcomed and valued for their unique characteristics and experiences.
On track to achieve our targets


Work with us
Our vision on people has earned us awards and recognitions around the world, such as: UN Global Compact, The Valuable 500, Equal by 30, Bloomberg Target Gender-Equality (EDP e EDPR), Women’s Empowerment Principles (UN) (EDP e EDPR)
But our work has received awards also locally, in Portugal and in Brazil: Programa Target Gender Equality - UN Global Compact, Meta Nacional para a Igualdade de Género, Aliança para a Igualdade nas TIC, Empresa Cidadã.


We want you to be part of our vision
As a socially responsible company, we embed the principles of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB) into our values and practices, committing ourselves to attract, develop and retain diverse profiles in the organisation.
More than isolated concepts, diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging are elements that allow us to understand in depth how each person feels represented, respected, valued, treated fairly, and has equitable access to opportunities.

Studies show that the lack of female references will make many girls give up their dreams, or even not get to know them. Teachers, nurses… they have several examples on their gender, but having a female engineer to look up to is not so common.
Assuming diversity as an enabling factor of innovation is the backbone of our support for this movement.

Our commitments on gender equality for 2026

We have a plan for creating equal opportunities
Every year we reaffirm this commitment by reviewing our Gender Equality Plan, essential to continue building a diverse, balanced and inclusive workplace where everyone belongs.
In this sense, we have set concrete goals to increase the representation of women globally and in leadership positions, through the promotion of equity in access to opportunities and working conditions, remuneration, training, prevention of harassment and protection in parenthood and conciliation.

All generations included in one purpose
A leading company thrives on a diverse workforce, including generational coexistence, ensuring everyone feels respected and valued. Our priority is to foster a work environment that promotes knowledge sharing across generations to ensure business continuity while embracing innovative ideas, perspectives, and disruptive ways of working.

Coexistence of generations

Your Board Initiative
We are committed to increasing the representation of younger generations in leadership positions in the coming years through internal development programs such as Your Board.
This program aims to accelerate the development of young employees, give them a voice and exposure to their ideas, and bring new perspectives to the group's top leadership.


All around the world, united by one purpose
A diverse organisation also presupposes the coexistence of generations, ensuring that all of them feel respected. We are a global and constantly growing company in which the diversity of cultures, habits and ways of working are a source of innovation, essential for us to continue leading the energy transition.
