Energy in Portugal: 10 companies concentrate 78% of billing

SAPO Notícias9 September 2026 at 08:06

The energy sector in Portugal is dominated by a small group of large companies, according to an analysis by Iberinform. The ten largest organizations in the sector concentrate around 78% of the aggregate business volume, which reveals an enormous inequality in market distribution.

This concentration occurs despite the majority of the Portuguese business fabric being made up of micro-enterprises, which represent a much smaller share of the total billing in the energy sector.

The analysis was published by Iberinform, a business information company, this Tuesday.

War between Rede Expressos and FlixBus affects Lisbon connections

The legal conflict between Rede Expressos and FlixBus over access to the Sete Rios terminal in Lisbon has intensified, with the German carrier accusing the Portuguese rival of blocking compliance with a court ruling from March 2026 that ordered its access to the station. Rede Expressos denies the accusations, classifying them as "false and defamatory," and maintains that the terminal has reached its physical capacity, making it impossible to allocate the 96 daily schedules sought by FlixBus. Faced with the impasse, the German company has moved forward with an enforcement action of the ruling and a criminal complaint against those responsible for managing the facility, while users await a resolution that balances commercial competition with the safe operation of a key node of mobility in Lisbon.

SAD do Benfica achieves profit of…

Benfica's SAD achieved a net profit of 19.1 million euros in the 2025/26 financial year, the second consecutive year with positive results, although below the 34.4 million from the previous year. The growth in recurring revenue, the control of operational expenses, and the favorable evolution of player rights explain the performance. Equity capital strengthened to 135.5 million euros, while the operating result stood at 32.4 million. Excluding the player rights component, operating revenue reached 214.4 million euros, a 7% decline justified by the absence of extraordinary Club World Cup revenue.

The representative organization of farmers considers this measure insufficient given the needs and difficulties the sector faces.
