According to the NECP (which also includes the mainland and islands), the power generation sector is expected to reduce emissions by 83 % in 2030 compared to 2005, so the value considered for 2030 should be 4.34 Mton. As this study considers only the values of mainland Portugal, the value to be achieved should be lower.
