The European Commission is working with Portuguese authorities to identify Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP) projects that cannot be completed by the August 31 deadline due to recent storms, aiming to reallocate their funding to other initiatives, including repair and recovery efforts. Prime Minister Luís Montenegro stated that the Commission has guaranteed Portugal will not lose or return any RRP funds, promising an 'ingenious solution' to address the impact of force majeure events. Discussions are underway to redirect unused investments toward sectors such as telecommunications and energy, including satellite systems and renewable energy infrastructure for public buildings.
