Portugal
Electric Mobility on the Rise
Sustainability is changing the way we live
The bet on electric vehicles is already a reality in our day-to-day life and happens all over the world, and Portugal is part of this path.
Electric mobility in Portugal is growing strongly and is expected to increase even more significantly in the next five to 10 years. There are many advantages in the growth of electric mobility, including the decarbonization of the economy, the reduction of energy dependence, the reduction of environmental footprint and noise, and the increase of energy efficiency of transport.
The regime and powers assigned to each of the electric mobility network agents were established by Decree-Law no. 90/2014, of June 11, whose purpose is to promote competition in the activities of marketing electricity for electric mobility and operating charging stations.
This regulation also organizes the activities related to the provision, operation and use of public charging stations for electric vehicles and stimulates their integration in private spaces with the electric mobility network.
