2024 indicator comparison
| Indicator | Portugal | EU27 project reference | Relative position |
|---|---|---|---|
| ESS1 ensemble | 0.0323 | 0.0237 | Above EU27 |
| ESS2 energy intensity | 0.0154 | 0.0119 | Above EU27 |
| ESS3 production coverage | 0.480 | 0.626 | Below EU27 |
| Renewable-consumption share | 19.5% | 14.3% | Above member-state mean |
Trend since 2015
Portugal’s ESS1 ensemble decreased by 47.9%, which represents a stronger security direction inside the project framework. ESS3 increased by 26.2%, representing a stronger security direction. The renewable-consumption share increased by 8.7%, representing a stronger security direction on that component.
The dimensions can move in different directions. A country may lower GDP-scaled import exposure while retaining limited domestic-production coverage, or improve renewable consumption while remaining concentrated in a specific external supplier.
Do not read these values in isolation: combine direction, EU comparison, fuel mix, partner concentration and data coverage. ESS values are not probabilities, official dependency percentages or policy scores.
