Energy Resources in Portugal

In 2005 the portugese government promised several objectives.
One of them was to Portugal environmentaly converge with Europe.
So moving on,  what did this government actually did for the past 4 years in charge that concerns the topic of reducing pollution and helping the planet to recover from the harm?



Well, after 4 years Portugal now produces over 2500 MegaWatts from electric windmills scattered along several hills of the country. Almost 11% of the electric energy is colected from this windmills.
The government also motivated the families to produce wind energy for selling to EDP.

Another comitement was to pay 50% of the cost for a solar panel to any citizen who wanted to use them in their houses to use solar energy.

Now it's up to everyone to help decreasing the production energy by fossil fuels.How will you contribute for the preservation of the planet?

  1. We have come a long way indeed, but we still need to do so much more and faster.

    As for the solar panels, the help is great, yes. But they are still very expensive.
