De um comentário:

Before the predictable display of germanophilia starts, I would like to contribute with an interesting fact: Spain regularly covers 35-45% of its power demands using renewables. These figures don’t correspond to a weekend day but to the average over the course of the whole year.

Parte II

As “desvantagens”, foram para parar um país como Portugal de construir tais coisas, enquanto os países ricos as constroem…. e se fizeram os contratos que provavelmente se fizeram a respeito das energias naturais ! Eu imagino…  Talvez como o vinho do Porto ?…
Uma equipa… só para toda a questão de produção de energia pela água.
Equipa a investigar (da Justiça), em ligação com a equipa do ministério da Energia, em ligação com a equipa do Ministério da Ciência, a trabalhar no desenvolvimento desta indústria.

A razão porque agora vamos começar a ouvir mais sobre isto, é haver a indústria dos produtores de ondas a quererem vender os seus produtos…. !
Algo em que deviam ter sido os Portugueses a chefiar.
