This portfolio spans 9 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in C07C (ACYCLIC OR CARBOCYCLIC COMPOUNDS). As a Foreign Corporation, Abengoa Bioenergía Nuevas Technologías, S.a. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Abengoa sits between A.r.e. Accessories Llc (10 patents, rank #25,625) and Acciona Energia S.a. (10 patents, rank #25,633) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 29.9/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 3 grants, compared with 7 in the 2015–2019 window, a -57% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Abengoa Bioenergía Nuevas Technologías, S.a.'s 16.2 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 9 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Abengoa Bioenergía Nuevas Technologías, S.a. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Abengoa's 10 grants land it in the top 67% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
