Fuerzas Eléctricas del Noroeste, S.A. (Fenosa) was a Spanish electric company based in A Coruña, Galicia.
History
Fenosa was founded in 1943 following the forced merger of Fábrica de Gas y Electricidad, owned by Pedro Barrié de la Maza, and Electra Popular Coruñesa, expropriated from José Miñones by the Francoist government.
In 1982, it merged with Unión Eléctrica to create Union Fenosa, which would become one of the biggest power companies in Spain.
