Installed capacity of operating assets, not electricity generated — a GW of solar and a GW of gas do not produce the same energy in a year.
Capacity built per year
22.2 GW operating across 629 tracked assets, 714 MW under construction · last five years up 66% on the five before.
Built from assets operating today, by commissioning year — plants that closed before now are not in the data, so early years show only what survived. The forward bars are capacity physically under construction, not a forecast. A further 714 MW is under construction with no stated completion year. 161 MW of operating capacity has no commissioning year and sits outside the curve. Retirements are not tracked for this country, so no net-capacity line is drawn.
88% of Portugal’s tracked capacity has an owner recorded.
