Endesa SA said Sunday that it has created a 25 million euros ($27.8 million) fund to help fight the coronavirus pandemic in Spain.

The Spanish utility company--a subsidiary of Enel SpA--said the fund will be earmarked for purchases of protective equipment for health-care workers. It will also be used for purchases of ventilators and other devices for hospitalized people diagnosed with the virus.

Endesa said the fund will also help cover electricity purchases from hospitals and other facilities accommodating patients with Covid-19.
