The next decade will be decisive for Portugal to be neutral in carbon emissions, with more sectors of the economy turning to electricity produced from renewable sources, the government argues in a roadmap that will be presented this Tuesday.


The main goal of the Roadmap for Carbon Neutrality is to virtually end greenhouse gas emissions in 45 years, with a reduction of 85% to 99% between 2005 and 2050 that will require "a profound transformation of the economic and social model." Already by 2030, it is intended that 80% of the energy produced come from renewable sources, reaching 100% progressively twenty years later, according to data from the Ministry of the Environment.
