6 In 2013 the real incorporation of renewable energy sources in the gross final energy consumption was 29,2% Evolution of real incorporation of RES in final energy consumption in Portugal 29,2% 26,6% 24,7% 23,9% 23,7% 19,5% 20,8% 20,5% 15,3% FER Real FER Diretiva /CE P Source: DGEG

7 Directive 28/2009/EC introduces the obligation for EU countries to submit a plan to promote the use of renewable energy, the NREAP This plan sets national targets for each Member State for the share of energy from renewable sources consumed in transport, electricity and heating and cooling in 2020, as well as the respective paths of penetration according to the pace of the implementation of measures and actions planned in each of these sectors, taking into account the effects of other policies related to energy efficiency in energy consumption. It was also established that the plan should be revised 2 in 2 years. Targets set for Portugal in 2020 Minimum trajectory for renewable sources in Portugal 31% 19,6% 21,9% 23,0% 24,8% 27,0% 31,0% 10% Target for RES in the Transport sector Overall RES target

8 Portugal s Renewable energy target for 2020 is the 5th most ambitious of the European Union Share of renewable energy sources in gross final energy consumption in the countries of the EU by 2020 as the Country aims to: - reduce external energy dependence and reinforce security of supply; - be positioned in the top rank of climate change initiatives and; - promote economic growth. 23% 23% 24% 25% 25% 20% 20% 20% 10% 11% 13% 13% 13% 13% 14% 14% 15% 15% 16% 16% 17% 18% 18% 38% 40% 34% 30% 31% 49%
