Portugal’s Renewable Energy Grid

Portugal generated a remarkable  71 % of its electricity from renewables in 2024. Canada weighs in at an almost as impressive 67% (2023). Both countries outperform the global and EU averages and continue to push for renewable growth in the near future.

A site for Canadians

Much of the information and most of the resources in english give information that is relevant to Americans, but there is a lack of information geared to the Canadian immigrant to Portugal. Canada is a completely different country than the USA, and Canadians will have a different experience moving here.

Why I Choose Portugal

Some people choose to live in Toronto and work very hard and then move to a warmer climate where they can sit on a beach all day and retire. I am choosing the middle path. I can work in Europe at a slower pace and make less money and start enjoying fantastic beaches and culture now rather than wait until I am older. I am easing into a later stage in life where money matters less and quality of life matters more.
