Portugal: a leader in renewable energy 🌍 ⚡🚀 With 83% of its electricity generated from renewable sources in 2023, Portugal continues solidifying its position as a leader in the green energy transition. Pedro Amaral Jorge, President of the Portuguese Renewable Energy Association (APREN - Associação Portuguesa de Energias Renováveis), highlights the country's strong technical expertise, regulatory stability, and commitment to innovation as key drivers of this success. Portugal is well to achieving 93% renewable energy by 2030💡. Offshore wind energy, with plans for 2 gigawatts of capacity by 2030, represents a significant opportunity for further growth, reinforcing Portugal's global leadership in renewable energy. Beyond environmental benefits, this sector is also a major economic force. In 2023, the renewable energy industry contributed €3.7 billion to Portugal's GDP, and by 2030, this impact is expected to grow to €17 billion, creating thousands of new jobs. The renewable energy revolution is powering the country and driving economic prosperity. 💼🌱 Read the full interview in Portugalglobal Magazine 👉 https://lnkd.in/d-VY6uGj #RenewableEnergy #Portugal #Sustainability #OffshoreWind #EnergyTransition #Investment #AICEP #aicepuae #InvestinPortugal #BusinessMatchMaking #PortugalOpenForBusiness aicep Portugal Global
