'''Renfe''' ({{IPA|es|ˈreɱfe}}, {{IPA|ca|ˈreɱfə|label=Eastern Catalan:}}), officially '''Renfe-Operadora''', is [[Spain]]'s national [[State-owned enterprise|state-owned]] railway company.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Renfe {{!}} Train Tickets & Routes {{!}} Book in English |url=https://www.thetrainline.com/en/train-companies/renfe |access-date=2022-11-03 |website=Trainline |language=en}}</ref> 

It was created in 2005 upon the split of the former [[Red Nacional de los Ferrocarriles Españoles|Spanish National Railway Network (RENFE)]] into the [[Administrador de Infraestructuras Ferroviarias]] (ADIF), which inherited the infrastructure, and Renfe-Operadora, which inherited the railway service.

== History ==
{{further|History of rail transport in Spain}}
The name "Renfe" (acronym of ''[[Red Nacional de los Ferrocarriles Españoles|'''Re'''d '''N'''acional de los '''F'''errocarriles '''E'''spañoles]]'') is derived from that of the former Spanish National Railway Network created on 24 January 1941 with the [[nationalization|nationalisation]] of Spain's railways. As per [[EU Directive 91/440]], Renfe was divided into Renfe Operadora (operations) and ADIF (infrastructure) on 1 January 2005. At the same time, the existing Renfe logo (nicknamed the "galleta", Spanish for biscuit), first introduced in 1971, was replaced by a dark purple lower-case [[wordmark]] designed by Interbrand. Separate logos used by the other sectors were also replaced, but the old Renfe logo remains in use in some stations in Spain and on maps to indicate an ADIF station.

The ''Railway Sector Act, 2003'' separated the management, maintenance and construction of rail infrastructure from train operation. The first activity is now the responsibility of [[Administrador de Infraestructuras Ferroviarias]] (ADIF), while the newly created Renfe-Operadora (also known as Grupo Renfe or simply Renfe) owns the rolling stock and remains responsible for the planning, marketing and operation of the passenger and freight services.<ref>{{cite journal| trans-title=The New Renfe| url=http://www.fcmaf.es/Reportajes/Renfe.htm| title=La Nueva Renfe| journal=Federación Castellano Manchega de Amigos del Ferrocarril| language=es| date=11 January 2005}}</ref>

Renfe no longer has a monopoly on domestic passenger services due to [[Ouigo España]] launching in 2021, followed by [[Iryo]] in 2022.{{cn|date=June 2023}}

==Structure==
Renfe-Operadora inherited the management model of the old Renfe, which made Renfe-Operadora responsible for the operation of the passenger and freight services. In January 2006, Renfe-Operadora restructured the main business units into four general directorates:

* Dirección General de Servicios Públicos de Cercanías y Media Distancia (General Public Utilities Directorate for Suburban and Medium Distance): responsible for commuter services (Cercanías), medium-distance high-speed rail AVE services and medium-range regional services ([[:es:Regionales]] and [[:es:Media Distancia]]). However, control of some [[Cercanías]] services were transferred to Spain's Autonomous communities.
* Dirección General de Servicios de Larga Distancia (General Directorate of Long Distance Services): responsible for long-distance intercity and high-speed rail services (except medium-distance AVE services and Media Distancia, which is managed by the above business unit).
* Dirección General de Servicios de Mercancías y Logística (General Directorate for Freight and Logistics Services): responsible for freight services.
* Dirección General de Fabricación y Mantenimiento (General Directorate of Manufacturing and Maintenance): responsible for rolling stock maintenance and manufacture (also known as Integria).

In June 2013, Renfe's board agreed to restructure the group into four separate companies under the holding company:<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.railwaygazette.com/news/policy/single-view/view/renfe-restructuring-approved.html|access-date=1 July 2013|title=RENFE restructuring approved|work=[[Railway Gazette International]]}}</ref><ref name="Puente20130702">{{cite news

=== Operations ===
The company operates some {{Convert|12000|km|abbr=on}} of railways, {{Convert|7000|km|abbr=on}} of them electrified. Most of the tracks are constructed to the [[broad gauge|broad]] [[Iberian gauge]] of {{Track gauge|1668mm}}, the same as that used in [[Portugal]] but wider than the international gauge of {{Track gauge|1435mm}} which is standard in most of the rest of the world. The newer [[High-speed rail|high-speed]] ([[AVE]]) network has been built to the international [[standard gauge]] of {{Track gauge|1435mm|disp=1}} for the connection to the rest of the European railway system. For this reason, the {{Track gauge|1435mm|disp=1}} gauge is generally termed "European gauge" in Spain.{{Cn|date=July 2023}}

Construction of a [[high-speed rail]] line between [[Madrid]] and [[Seville]] began in 1988 and began operations in 1991, going {{Convert|300|km/h|abbr=on}}. The second high-speed rail line (Madrid to [[Barcelona]]) was completed in 2007 with the inaugural service commencing on 20 February 2008. The operational speed on this route is {{Convert|350|km/h|abbr=on}}. The greater part of the line (Madrid to [[Lleida]]) entered service on 11 October 2003, with a connection to [[Huesca]] from [[Zaragoza]]. The third high-speed line (Madrid to [[Toledo, Spain|Toledo]]) was opened in November 2005, followed by a spur from [[Córdoba, Spain|Córdoba]] to [[Málaga, Spain|Málaga]] as far as [[Antequera]] in 2007. Another high-speed route from Madrid to [[Valladolid]] was opened in 2007. A line from Madrid to [[Valencia (city in Spain)|Valencia]] was opened in 2010, and the first stage of a high-speed line in [[Galicia (Spain)|Galicia]] opened in 2011. A line to [[Lisbon]] is being designed.{{cn|date=June 2023}}

Other lines operated by Renfe include [[Euromed (train)|Euromed]], a moderate-speed line between Barcelona and Alicante.

In addition to [[Inter-city rail|intercity]] transport, Renfe operates [[commuter train]] systems, known as ''[[Cercanías]]'' (or ''Rodalies'' in Catalonia and ''Cercanías-Aldirikoak'' in the Basque Country), in eleven metropolitan areas, including Madrid and Barcelona. In some cities, Renfe shares the market with other commuter railway operators, such as [[Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya|FGC]].

In 2019, Renfe solicited bids for 31 new trains for the Asturias and Cantabria regions and the €258m contract was awarded to the CAF ([[Construcciones y Auxiliar de Ferrocarriles]]) in June 2020. Around February 2023, authorities discovered the designs were for the wrong loading gauge and would be too wide for the tunnels.<ref name=BI0212>{{cite web |title=$276 million was spent on 31 Spanish trains before it was realized they were too big to fit in the tunnels |date=February 12, 2023 |publisher=Business Insider |url=https://www.businessinsider.com/spain-spend-millions-euros-trains-too-big-for-rail-tunnels-2023-2}}</ref> Amidst international embarrassment, Renfe and ADIF each tried to deflect responsibility, and some called for the firing of the executives deemed responsible. Fortunately, the trains were still being designed, however the ''Cercanía'' commuter trains will be delayed until 2026.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Badcock |first=James |title=Spain spends €258m to build trains too big for its tunnels |url=https://www.msn.com/en-gb/travel/news/spain-spends-%E2%82%AC258m-to-build-trains-too-big-for-its-tunnels/ar-AA17d0zZ |access-date=2023-02-10 |website=MSN |language=en-GB}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=King |first=Chris |date=2023-02-10 |title=Cantabrian President demands heads of 'big shots' must roll over new trains not fitting through tunnels |url=https://euroweeklynews.com/2023/02/10/update-cantabrian-president-demands-heads-of-big-shots-must-roll-over-new-trains-not-fitting-through-tunnels/ |access-date=2023-02-10 |website=Euro Weekly News |language=en-GB}}</ref><ref name=BI0212/> Subsequently, transport officials including the president of Renfe and the Secretary of State for Transport resigned.<ref> {{cite web|url= https://www.stuff.co.nz/travel/travel-troubles/300812892/heads-roll-in-spain-over-trains-too-wide-for-tunnels |title= Heads roll in- Spain over trains too wide for tunnels |publisher= Stuff/Fairfax |date= 2023 }} </ref>

In November 2024, Renfe bought a 33% shareholding in [[Arenaways]].<ref>[https://www.railjournal.com/financial/renfe-acquires-stake-in-italian-operator-arenaways/ Renfe acquires stake in Italian operator Arenaways] ''[[International Railway Journal]]'' 27 November 2024</ref><ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20241127210824/https://www.renfe.com/es/en/renfe-group/communication/renfe-today/press-room/renfe-partners-longitude-expand-italian-market Renfe partners with Longitude to expand into Italian market] Renfe 27 November 2024</ref>

==Tickets==
[[Train ticket|Travel tickets]] are available from rail stations and online. In 2023 the [[European Commission]] initiated an investigation into concerns that Renfe might have been abusing its [[dominance (economics)|dominant position]] in the online ticketing market by refusing to share journey time information with competing ticketing websites. Renfe offered a number of commitments intended to address these concerns, which the European Commission made legally binding in January 2024 under the EU's [[Competition law in the European Union|competition]] rules.<ref>European Commission, [https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/ip_24_201 Commission accepts commitments by Renfe opening up competition in online rail ticketing in Spain], Press Release IP/24/201, published 17 January 2024</ref>
