We use technology, research, and development to increase the efficiency and sustainability of operations and generate new business opportunities. In 2025, we consolidated the Innovation Powerhouse model, which organizes innovation initiatives in Value Deliveries led by business areas, integrating technology, data, automation, and R&D. With this, our portfolio surpassed 70 active initiatives, with an estimated value generation potential of approximately R$ 2 billion.

Climate strategy

AXIA Energia is committed to being net zero by 2030.

In February 2025, we approved our science-based emissions reduction targets submitted to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The action plan to achieve this milestone includes decarbonization solutions for suppliers and customers, such as renewable energy certificates (RECFYs), value chain engagement, expansion into new renewable energy markets, adoption of climate criteria for new projects, and investment in projects to offset emissions.

Biodiversity and water management

In 2025, we made progress in developing the Biodiversity Policy. We also approved the Nature Action Plan, which aims to identify impacts, risks, and opportunities and achieve net-zero loss, aligned with the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) and the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). In the same year, we revised the Water Resources Policy, with an emphasis on access to quality water, adaptive planning, and the protection of aquatic ecosystems.
