Portugal powered solely by renewables last weekend::Portugal generated 172.5 GWh of renewable electricity between Friday and Saturday. Its output included 97.6 GWh of wind, 68.3 GWh of hydro, and 6.6 GWh of PV. It exported surplus power to Spain, while consuming 131.1 GWh.
Hooray for storms.
Here’s the energy mix for a regular domestic consumer in the month of October.
At least it’s a start. And more than a lot of other countries are doing.
My latest one looks different (100% renewable), so I guess it depends on which provider you’re using or the region you live in?
It depends on those factors and a few others. You can also pay extra to ensure your electricity comes from all renewable sources. The so-called “Garantias de Origem” (guarantee of origin).
