What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Lisbon City Council reported that 7,201 homes have been renovated out of 14,383 identified as needing attention, representing approximately €299 million in eligible investment. The council noted that 3,600 homes identified in the program currently lack an application or approved funding under Portugal’s Recovery and Resilience Plan. Furthermore, the number of homes allocated in 2026 (253) is significantly lower than the annual average during Mayor Carlos Moedas’ two terms in office (687).
