Today Med OCEaN is proud to announce its newest Member: APREN. APREN – the Portuguese Renewable Energy Association – is a non-profit organisation founded in 1988, with the mission of coordinating and representing the shared interests of its members while promoting renewable energy among all energy-sector stakeholders and civil society.
