In late October 2026, investment bank Jefferies issued a positive forecast for EDP and EDP Renováveis, anticipating strong third-quarter results. For EDP, the bank projected a third-quarter EBITDA of €1.5 billion, a 26% year-on-year increase, driven by hydroelectric production and asset rotation. Net income for EDP was projected to potentially reach €521 million.

Following these financial projections, EDP Brasil finalized the acquisition of 100% of EDP Renováveis Brasil (EDPR Brasil) for €990 million. This transaction, which carries an enterprise value of €1.6 billion, is intended to integrate electricity production, trading, and supply activities in the Brazilian market to improve competitiveness and risk management in alignment with the group’s 2026-2028 Business Plan.
