ArabiaWeather.com - During the period from May 7-11, Portugal relied on renewable energy completely in electricity consumption without using any type of fossil fuel; This is a step to use renewable energy sources in energy production in the future.

The head of Portuguese "NGO Zero", Francisco Ferreira, explained that renewable energy will be the main source of energy in the coming years, as the transition will be made from relying on fossil fuels in land transportation to electricity. That is why money has been heavily invested in renewable energy in Portugal, especially in electricity.
