The latest activity from our #PlugIntoKnowledge initiative remains fresh in our minds. It was a truly special gathering between two generations - children and seniors from Vila Viçosa - who came together for a workshop at one of our solar parks in the region. As Rui D. Oliveira, New Energy Projects Senior Associate at Greenvolt, noted: “This workshop reflects Greenvolt Group's commitment to promoting renewable #energyliteracy, empowering different generations - both young and senior, who are often overlooked in these topics - and demonstrates our dedication to explaining the importance of our projects within the communities where they operate”. On this International Day Against Climate Change, we’re reminded that overcoming this challenge starts with #knowledge, driving conscious and impactful actions.

Today, our #PlugIntoKnowledge initiative traveled to southern Portugal, to #Alentejo, for a special event where knowledge bridged generations, bringing together children from São Romão School and students from Vila Viçosa Senior University. In a hands-on workshop at one of our solar power plants in the region, participants explored solar and wind-powered models, learned how a photovoltaic module works, and engaged in meaningful dialogue about integrating green solutions into everyday life. Their newfound knowledge was put to the test in a fun, interactive quiz, and everyone did exceptionally well💡. A big thank you to all participants for their enthusiasm and curiosity, and a special thanks to Vila Viçosa Municipality for their collaboration in making this event possible. 🔜 Next stop? Heading further north. Stay tuned!

Our #PlugIntoKnowledge journey is on the road to energize and empower individuals in the transition to renewable energy, with recent stops in #Tábua and ISCTE Business School. In Tábua, coinciding with the inauguration of our Solar Photovoltaic Plant, we hosted a guided tour for local high school students, providing them with a firsthand look at how solar energy infrastructure operates. At ISCTE, we engaged future leaders in an interactive talk session that explored the social, economic, and environmental impacts of renewable energy, as well as the opportunities the energy transition presents for businesses. 🎬 Catch all the highlights in our wrap-up video and visit our website 🌐 for all the details https://lnkd.in/dvM_PVN2 Stay tuned for more updates!

We had the pleasure of participating as guests at an event organized by ERSE - where the regulatory context of Energy Sharing Projects in Portugal, including our project at the Clube de Futebol Os Belenenses stadium, was presented and discussed. This initiative featured insights from Greenvolt Group's Director of Regulatory Affairs, Sofia Pinto Barbosa, and the CEO of Greenvolt Comunidades, José Queirós de Almeida, DBA, who spoke about the current state of legislation and regulation on Energy Sharing in Portugal, as well as the benefits of Greenvolt’s business model, which delivers clean, affordable energy for everyone. The event brought together international representatives from various energy regulatory associations across Europe and the Mediterranean, who visited the Clube de Futebol Os Belenenses stadium to experience this good example of a Greenvolt Energy Community,  where 25% of the energy surplus is shared with local families and businesses, while the remaining 75% of the surplus is directed to the Champalimaud Foundation Clinical Center, a medical, scientific, and technological institution with cutting-edge capabilities. #EnergyCommunities #Greenvolt #EnergyTransition #Sustainability

Today, at ISCTE Business School, #PlugIntoKnowledge | The First Step to the Energy Transition continued with an engaging #Talk featuring João Manso Neto, CEO of Greenvolt Group, Catarina Barreiros, Founder & CEO of Do Zero, and Catarina Roseta Palma, Associate Professor at ISCTE, moderated by Clementina Barroso, Professor at ISCTE. The session sparked lively discussions, broadening students' understanding of the role of renewable energy in the energy transition, as well as the growing influence of conscious consumers and emerging leaders in driving sustainable change. Speaking to an audience of future business leaders, the Talk also underscored how renewables and ESG factors are becoming central to business strategies, opening a wide array of opportunities for companies.
