Enel is a global leader in the generation and distribution of energy, and at the vanguard in the development of renewables. The Rome-based electric utility company, founded in 1962 by the Italian government which currently owns only 24% of capital, employs 68,000 people, services more than 61 million customers in more than 30 countries, and brought in $82.7 billion (€75.7 billion) in revenue in 20151. Enel Green Power—founded in 2008 as a subsidiary dedicated to renewable energy production—began creating shared value across its value chain in 2012 and the Enel Group CEO Francesco Starace extended the approach to the Group in 2014.
