While the CEO Miguel Stilwell d’Andrade and other executives are named, the technical implementation is missing structured data (JSON-LD) to connect these individuals to their digital footprints. The technical implementation of the site itself shows gaps, such as lazy H1 naming conventions (‘Homepage EDP’) and a total absence of meta descriptions, which creates a disconnect between the claim of being a ‘digitalisation’ leader and the basic SEO hygiene of the site.

EDP makes bold claims about being ‘REBELSFORCHANGE’ and leaders in sustainability, which are mostly supported by dated milestones, such as the Brazil concession renewal for 30 years and the R$5 billion investment. However, claims like ‘Innovation is part of our DNA’ are presented without specific patent counts or technical white papers to substantiate the ‘DNA’ metaphor beyond standard startup bootcamps.

Identity & Authority is read from the structured data first: whether the site declares who it is in machine-readable schema, with verifiable identity links. Below is the schema captured per page, then the external proof links that support (or fail to support) that identity.
