History
editOn 18 November 2018, the Endesa Group launched Endesa X as an own brand with a focus on digitization, innovation and sustainability in both Spain and Portugal.[4] Endesa X aims to promotes access to renewable energy sources for companies, public administrations and private individuals. In 2018, Endesa X announced the development of a public access charging infrastructure plan to promote electric mobility in Spain.[5] This plan includes the installation of 8,500 public access charging points over a five-year period (2019-2023).[6] Endesa X confirmed the objective of 2020 with the installation of the first 2,000 public charging stations, thus completing the first phase of the project.[7] The company has a portfolio of 2 million customers, 298 employees in Spain and 6 in Portugal. In 2019, Endesa's gross investments totalled 271.2 million euros.[8] On 14 September 2020 it has announced a cooperation agreement with Athlon (Daimler Group) to launch an electric leasing service for companies.[9] In the same year, in coordination with HERE, a company providing geographic and cartographic data services, Endesa X has launched City Analytics, a mobility map that helps public administrations in managing emergencies during the COVID-19 pandemic.[10][11]
Activities

In Barcelona it worked together with the City Council on the development of electric buses. This led, in October 2020, to the first fully electric line (H16) which joins the Forum with the Zona Franca area.[14]
