Burn Prevention Campaign

This annual campaign is geared to power plant employees, rural workers, farmers, communities and the Company's employees to engage them and raise awareness of the risks of vegetation fires.

The campaign is run in communities in the vicinity of transmission towers and through educational talks about the risks of illegal and accidental fires close to transmission towers, which may lead to power outages and risks for the population and the environment. Each edition of the campaign covers three areas, each of which comprising eight to ten cities or towns.

Urban Orchard
(GRI EC8)

CTEEP is one of the supporters of the Urban Orchard Project, an initiative of the São Paulo State Department of the Environment, jointly with public and private sector companies. The goal is to recover the environment and the landscape along the banks of the Pinheiros River (São Paulo City), in addition to job training and environmental education programs.

The Government sets and monitors parameters to allow the recovery of the river banks. In turn, the other partners hire employees to care for the area. CTEEP is currently responsible for an 800-m stretch of the river banks.
