ENDESA justifies its decision for the purposes of the measures included in the Royal Decree Law designed by ecological transition.
Specifically, due to the obligation imposed on the large electrical groups in the country of auctioning part of its electricity production among large industrial customers and independent marketers to provide greater “competitive pressure” to the market.
