The award was presented by Dr Ernest Moniz (pictured: left), the former US Secretary of Energy.
Galán said: “As an engineer, I am honoured to receive this prestigious award from such a distinguished law institution.
“For more than two decades, Iberdrola has been focused on delivering a cleaner, more secure, and efficient energy system.
“Our strategy is based on transparency, teamwork, responsibility, and professionalism, with ESG+F principles as our foundation.
“The successful transition to a cleaner energy model will require the active participation of all administrations, institutions, companies, and civil society.
“Iberdrola will remain fully committed to helping to deliver the energy transition, to creating value for all, and to ensuring best practices in corporate governance and rule of law.”
