The Portuguese Government has implemented Directive 2003/87/EC, of 13 October on greenhouse gas emissions permits.
According to Decree-Law no. 38/2013 of 15 March, the Portuguese Environment Agency (Agência Portuguesa do Ambiente) (APA) will be responsible for granting gratuitous greenhouse gas emissions permit, managing the Portuguese Registry of Emission Permits, which is integrated in the Union Registry and also technical management of the Portuguese Carbon Fund.
The operators of greenhouse gas emitting plants that carry out any of the activities listed in Annex II of the Decree-Law must mandatorily own a greenhouse gas emissions permit (título de emissão de gases com efeito de estufa) (TEGEE). The request for a TEGEE must be submitted with the competent authority responsible for the permitting procedure by filling in a specific form made available by APA on their internet website.
