Summary
The last total eclipse of the Sun in Portugal took place in 1912 and the next one will be in 2144, "making the eclipse of 2026 a rare phenomenon and an important moment for several generations". According to the site of Ciência Viva, in Portugal the eclipse will be total only in a restricted area of the Natural Park of Montesinho, near Bragança. Although this scenario is not expected to have repercussions on demand coverage, Red Electric will implement preventive measures.
Furthermore, Today the operator of the Spanish electrical system, Red Electric, informed the phenomenon will have a "limited and temporary" impact on solar production - specifically photovoltaic - since it will occur at a time when this technology, of course, is declining, and will not coincide with the usual peak demand of August.
