Since February 2024, Copel has not had any thermal power plants in its portfolio. The Company’s atmospheric emissions are due to the release of NOx, SO2, and particulate matter from the Company’s fleet.
In line with its Neutrality Plan, Copel has invested in a light electric fleet. These vehicles enable a reduction in atmospheric emissions and greenhouse gas emissions.
