Submarine cable between Portugal and Morocco only with private or EU funding

dnoticias.pt5 September 2026 at 05:06

The construction of a submarine electrical cable between Portugal and Morocco is a possibility that will only proceed if there is private or European Union funding. The Portuguese Minister of Environment guaranteed this condition today during a statement to journalists in Castro Verde, in the district of Beja.

The official added that it was agreed with the Moroccan Minister of Energy that the project could proceed if there was interest from private companies or financial support from the European Union. This condition arises as a fundamental requirement for the viability of the electrical interconnection project between the two countries.

The minister made these statements before proceeding to the inauguration of a festival in the locality of Castro Verde, where the meeting with journalists took place. The article was interrupted before providing additional information about the technical details or the planned timeline for the project.

The government responded with a change in support measures: while the diesel A bonus increased from 10 to 20 cents per liter, the aid for gasoline was halved, dropping from 10 to just 5 cents, reversing the previous trend.
