The Portuguese Government will open 85 notices from Portugal 2030 between September and December this year, with an allocation of almost 852 million euros. This plan was announced by the Ministry of Economy and Territorial Cohesion and includes 27 invitations and 58 public competitions. With this opening, the total volume of funds put out to tender in PT2030 rises to 19.3 billion euros, equivalent to 93% of the programme's total allocation.
The programmes with the highest allocation among the notices to be opened are Compete 2030, with 311 million euros, Sustentável 2030, with 198 million euros, and Alentejo 2030, with 147 million euros. The competitions will cover areas such as affordable cost housing, student accommodation, decarbonisation, internationalisation operations, energy efficiency, productive innovation and digitisation of the Public Administration.
The Minister of Economy and Territorial Cohesion, Castro Almeida, classified the new plan as another step in the execution of PT2030 and in the use of funds in priority areas for Portugal. The government official highlighted that the instrument gives potential beneficiaries the necessary predictability to plan their investments.
The new notices plan covers the period between September 2026 and August 2027 and includes a total of 172 competitions, mobilising around 2 billion euros in European funds. With this plan, the allocation on offer from PT2030 will correspond to 97% of the fund, equivalent to 20.2 billion euros, at the end of the covered period.
