6 FAQs about [Portugal distributed energy network]

How does electricity distribution work in Portugal?

The distribution activity is carried out by the exploitation of the infrastructures that, as a whole, make up the National Network of Distribution of Electricity. Electricity distribution is carried out under public service concessions granted by the Portuguese State.

Who is responsible for low voltage electricity distribution in Portugal?

The entities responsible for the distribution must be legally unbundled, not being able to carry out other activities within the sector. Low voltage (LV) electricity distribution in mainland Portugal is assigned to the municipalities, which can either concession the activity or directly operate the distribution network.

Who owns the low voltage distribution grid in Portugal?

Portugal’s 308 municipalities own the low voltage distribution grid contained within their physical territory. Each municipality can directly operate its section of the low voltage distribution grid or transfer operation to a third party through an exclusive 20-year concession.

Where does electricity come from in Portugal?

The majority of electricity supplied by the transmission network is delivered to distribution grids to which the vast majority of end-consumer are connected. Portugal’s high and medium voltage distribution systems consisted of 67 451 km of overhead lines, 14 985 km of underground cables and 423 substations.

How does the Portuguese national transmission grid work?
