Energy Transmission

We are leaders in electric power transmission in Brazil. In 2018, we reached approximately 71,000 kilometers of electric power transmission lines with voltage higher than or equal to 230 kV, representing almost half of this type of lines in Brazil or about one and a half times the circumference of the Earth.​
