- EDP generated 48.3 TWh in the first nine months of 2026.

EDP - Energias de Portugal (ISIN PTEDP0AM0009) is valued at EUR 19.5 billion after its renewables arm signed a 250 MW solar agreement. According to Simply Wall St, EDP Renewables locked in the long-term power purchase agreement on October 19, 2026, with a global technology company for a solar project in Arkansas.
The deal gives the group another contracted renewable asset in the United States, while the next company milestone is the publication of nine-month results. EDP stock was trading at EUR 4.73 at Lang & Schwarz on October 26, 2026 at 9:37 a.m. CET, and its 52-week range was EUR 3.69 to EUR 4.94.
What does 250 MW add?
The Arkansas project matters because it links renewable capacity to contracted demand rather than relying solely on merchant power prices. The agreement also adds to a US portfolio that Simply Wall St described as part of EDP Renewables expansion, while execution and counterparty concentration remain relevant risks.
Operations point to steady growth
EDP produced 48.3 TWh of electricity in the first nine months of 2026, up 0.50 percent from the same period of 2025, while renewable sources represented 92 percent of generation. The figures were reported by Jornal Economico on October 16, 2026. Electricity distributed rose 3 percent to 70.2 TWh, giving investors a second operating comparison ahead of the financial release.
EDP's operating data also showed hydro pumping generation up 20 percent to 2.1 TWh in the first nine months. The company has therefore entered the reporting date with higher distribution and storage-related activity, but the results will determine how those operating trends translated into earnings.
Three dated signals before results
On October 8, 2026, the MarketScreener consensus showed 22 analysts and an average target of EUR 5.22. On October 16, 2026, EDP reported 48.3 TWh of generation. On October 19, 2026, EDP Renewables signed the 250 MW Arkansas agreement, according to MarketScreener and Simply Wall St.
Two dates shape the next step
EDP will release its nine-month results on November 5, 2026, after the Euronext close. The company will host its webcast presentation on November 6, 2026 at 8:30 a.m. UK and Lisbon time.
Stock valuation and next catalyst
For investors, the central test is whether the 250 MW contract and the stronger operating figures support the earnings profile implied by the EUR 5.22 average analyst target. The upcoming results will provide the next quantified check on that view.
EDP stock was trading at EUR 4.73 at Lang & Schwarz on October 26, 2026 at 9:37 a.m. CET. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of EDP - Energias de Portugal stock.
