Portugal
Europe with an estimate reserve of 2–10 million tons of lithium to be explored soon. A perfect example of that is Tesla, which started Model 3 deliveries in February 2019, selling 1979 cars that first year, giving Tesla a 27.8% market share.
Electric Bicycles: The Portuguese municipalities are building more bicycle lanes with the aim of fulfilling all requirements for the smart city title position. Under the program Mobi-e (https://www.mobie.pt/), the Lisbon Municipality is facilitating the acquisition of e-bikes to all Lisbon residents by refunding partial amounts of bicycles acquired, to citizens and students, in order to contribute to sustainable mobility in Lisbon. By the end March 2021, Lisbon will have over 200 Km of bicycle lanes. Bike and e-bike sharing is now part of Lisbon city life, and other municipalities, namely Cascais, follow the same path. Cascais alone has 120 stations and 1200 bicycles in the municipality.
Electric Scooters: The city of Lisbon has adopted a dock-less electric scooters sharing system and several providers emerged immediately, namely Bungo, Flash, Hive, Lime, Tier, Voi and Wind. This type of micro mobility transportation is popular amongst citizens and tourists in many cities across the country.
