The Renewable Electricity Bulletin prepared by the Portuguese Renewable Energy (APREN)
The Renewable Electricity Bulletin prepared by the Portuguese Renewable Energy (APREN) highlights that, in the first seven months of the year, renewable energies contributed more than 83% to the generation of a total of 28,458 GWh of electricity in mainland Portugal.
Renewable sources were responsible for over 83% of Portugal’s electricity generation in the first seven months of 2024, which represents a 14.2% increase compared to the same period in 2023. This rise in renewable energy, particularly from hydro and solar power, led to a significant reduction in fossil fuel-based electricity production. Portugal ranked fourth in Europe for renewable energy incorporation, emphasizing the country’s strong commitment to the energy transition and climate change mitigation.
