The chart includes REN''s forecast for the generation from all solar power plants, including all small decentralised generation injected into the public network.
Renewable energy includes wind, solar, biomass and geothermal energy sources. Energy from renewable sources has been increasing in Portugal since 2000 and has been given a boost with the
Portugal''s electricity mix includes 32% Hydropower, 23% Wind and 13% Gas. Low-carbon generation peaked in 2024.
Electricity Generation: Non-Renewable data is updated monthly, averaging 2,304.000 GWh from Jan 2010 (Median) to Dec 2025, with 192 observations. The data reached an all-time high of
Portugal has the capacity to generate as much as 95 percent of its monthly electricity from renewable energy sources when wind and water are abundant. In April 2024, hydropower
Sines power plant (hard coal) started operation in 1985–1989 in Portugal. According to WWF its CO2 emissions were among the top dirty ones in Portugal in 2007. That coal power plant went offline in January 2021, with the one remaining coal power plant in the country, closing at 7h15 on the 19th of November 2021. Maghreb–Europe Gas Pipeline (MEG) is a natural gas pipeline, from Algeria through Morocco
Portugal made worldwide news when in February 2016, 95% of the electricity produced in Portugal was sourced from renewable energy, including biomass, hydropower, wind power, and solar
Although fossil fuels, mainly gas, still play a significant role in total electricity production, Portugal is one of the global leaders in meeting the country''s domestic electricity needs through renewable energy,
