Automatic summary, not yet reviewed

  1. The bill would have the State buy Repsol through SEPI Sociedad Española de Participaciones Industriales, the State-owned company that manages government stakes in other companies.: first at least 25% of the shares within two months, and at least 51% before October 29, 2026. The nationalization would be declared a matter of public utility.
  2. A permanent scientific advisory council of at least eight experts in climate and green industrial conversion would be created. It must approve the new strategic plan by qualified majority and would assess decarbonization at least twice a year.
  3. A moratorium until 2030 would be declared: Repsol would stop exploring new oil and gas fields no later than October 26, 2026, and would withdraw within three months from major fossil fuel projects, such as Marcellus Shale in the United States or El Sharara in Libya.
  4. The new 2026-2030 strategic plan and the "Horizonte Repsol 2050: 100 % renovable" framework would have to align with the Paris Agreement, with a minimum 75% cut in hydrocarbon production and refining before 2030 and priority for renewables in urban areas and rural Spain.
  5. From January 1, 2027, Repsol would stop receiving free emission allowances and would pay the climate cost of 100% of its emissions. Also, in 2026 the transfer to Spain of its companies based in tax havens would be promoted.
  6. The Government would guarantee current employment contracts at least until January 1, 2031, would appoint a new executive committee, and would promote ending the sponsorship contract for the MotoGP world championship (2026-2030).

Who it affects
