An investment of approximately €297 million is currently underway, aimed at modernising port terminals, increasing operational efficiency, and strengthening sustainability.
According to the press release, the outlook for the current year was presented at the annual meeting of the Lisbon Port Authority, attended by terminal operators and service providers.
In the environmental area, the development of ‘Onshore Power Supply’ (OPS) solutions will reduce emissions from ships docked at the Port of Lisbon by up to 77%.
The project to strengthen river navigation in the Tagus estuary, with an investment of €22 million starting in 2028/29, will allow for “removing millions of kilometres of road traffic and significantly reducing CO₂ emissions,” as stated in the press release.
The meeting highlighted advances in the digitalisation of port operations, one of the pillars of the Ports 5+ program, alongside sustainability, intermodality, and port-city integration.
The impact of adverse weather conditions in early 2026, which affected navigability and damaged port infrastructure, was also discussed.
In 2025, the Port of Lisbon recorded growth in cargo handled, an increase in the number of ship calls, and greater activity in the liquid bulk segment.
