Portugal is crushing it: renewables met 91% of Portugal’s electricity needs in the first 4 months this year & have pushed their⚡️prices to a 4 yr low!

Renewables are carrying an increasing % of their electrcity demand in the first 4 months in 2024:
- 95% April
- 91% March
- 88% Feb
- 81% in Jan

Portugal’s rapid transition is evidence it can be done: renewables are up from 27% in 2005 & 54% in 2017 with their last coal power plant shut down in 2021.

@renewable_energy rhis is really great! Some ppl here foresighted we'd go without power when nuclear plants are shut and coal mines closed... see, there's no catasrophe ahead. Nice to proclaim 😁

@Beasley right?! There is always the doom and gloom on the topics of renewables yet we still march ahead unabated by grid failure.

Imagine that! 🤷🏻‍♂️
