Iberdrola is a large Spanish utility with major operations in the US through Avangrid and across Europe. It owns generation and the wires that connect it, and it has built a dedicated business line for powering and connecting data centers — including long-term renewable power-purchase agreements signed directly with hyperscalers. In the model it sits on the power layer as a producer of grid capacity.

The structural hook is that Iberdrola controls the two things AI data centers are actually short of: firm renewable supply and, more importantly, an interconnection to deliver it. Signing a supply agreement is easy; getting physically connected to the grid is the constraint, and a utility that owns the network can move a project up the queue. That combination — generation plus grid access plus a purpose-built commercial team — is why the model treats it as a genuine power-layer supplier to the build-out rather than a passive electricity seller.
