I looked into this more, the 2022 data tells a much different story than the article:

https://ourworldindata.org/energy/country/portugal#how-much-electricity-does-the-country-consume-each-year

hard to believe they've basically just returned to 1985 levels of renewables for electricity generation.

Is it hard to believe or have you not thought about it hard enough?
