Not sure if this is what you want, but they are aiming to self tune parameters for you. http://www.ml4aad.org/

As others said you'll find more wind and hydro power in the north. As far as solar power is concerned, there's not so much in Portugal, because it was expensive until some couple of years. Nowadays we have a remuneration scheme that allows you to consume directly from your solar panel, thus not increasing the accumulated tariff debt (it is currently at ~5billion€. Spain is worse at ~27billion€. They invested in solar power too early)

I've studied EE before at master's level, but I'm going back to do a master in CS with 4/5 courses in ML. In the end I feel there is a great advantage in being able to implement the algorithms you design for ML applications. What do you think?
