…electric vehicles should have emphasis in helping to transition towards a low-carbon economy, as they are now main sector responsible for Portuguese emissions. Portugal has some great renewable energy sources. Portugal’s solar potential is very strong, but so are its wind and hydro resources…In April, 80% of Portugal’s electricity came from renewables, and the figure is 75% for the first 4 months of 2016.

Any chance this might be humbling enough for our Coal-ition to actually do something in such a sunburnt, windswept land?
