12 million euro support for the Douro will be paid based on the quantity of grapes harvested

Diário de Coimbra12 September 2026 at 12:30

The Instituto dos Vinhos do Douro e Porto (IVDP) will pay an extraordinary support of 12 million euros to Douro wine growers. The payment will be made directly to grape producers in the Douro region. The criterion for the distribution of this support will be the quantity of grapes harvested by each wine grower, meaning the amount received by each producer will depend directly on the registered production. This support comes in the context of the viticultural sector of the Douro region, which faces economic and climatic challenges.

Why this matters

The Douro wine growers will be directly affected by this measure, receiving payments proportional to their grape production. This support comes in a context of difficulties for the wine sector and represents financial relief for producers in Portugal's main wine region.

Extremadura fears losing investments in five data centers. Badajoz-Elvas axis puts Portugal in the race

The Spanish Extremadura region asked the Madrid Government to withdraw the Draft Royal Decree project aimed at regulating the energy consumption of data centers, warning that the new stricter rules than European legislation could compromise strategic investments in the region, valued at more than 25 billion euros. The center of the protest is the requirements that force data centers to ensure that 80% of consumed energy is generated during the same hour, associated with new renewable production. On the other side of the border, in Badajoz, the Nostrum Evergreen Data Center project has just obtained prior administrative authorization for electrical infrastructure, taking advantage of the proximity to the Elvas-Badajoz axis, which could position Portugal as an alternative for these technology investments.

Fuel prices: diesel rises and becomes 10 cents more expensive than gasoline. There are queues in Tui

Fuel prices in Portugal will change next week, with diesel rising 4 cents per liter and gasoline falling 6 cents, according to estimates from the Portuguese Automobile Club (ACP). Based on current values from the Directorate-General for Energy and Geology (DGEG), the average price of diesel is at 2.11 euros per liter, while gasoline costs an average of 2.10 euros, reversing the usual price relationship between the two fuels. The difference compared to prices in Spain reaches 33 cents, which has caused long queues at the Tui border, with drivers crossing into Spanish territory to refuel.
