The energy industry faces unprecedented change. Growing decarbonisation of the economy, concerns as to energy efficiency and the growth of industry applied technology have significantly transformed the industry outlook.
In line with the transformation taking place in other European countries, Portugal stands out as one of the countries with greater renewable potential, with a mature industry fully capable of adjusting to the industry’s evolution.
Changes in the industry’s outlook are met with significant legal and economic regulatory amendments, requiring closely monitoring.
In the lusophone and francophone emerging markets, as well as in East-Timor, the industry faces new challenges as a result of the constraints in transport and distribution networks and the growing trend of decentralised, off-grid energy projects.
