More About This Project

Pursuant to a long-term concession awarded in 1997 that was extended in May 2026, CPFL RGE provides power distribution services in 381 municipalities in Rio Grande do Sul, covering an area of over 182 thousand km2 and serving 3.1 million customers.

The project is structured as climate resilience project and proceeds of the loan will be applied towards distribution infrastructure for improving climate resilience of the electricity grid.

The implementation of the Project will help the Borrower to ensure safety of distribution infrastructure and availability of electricity supply to residents and critical institutions (such as hospitals and communication entities) even under adverse weather conditions.

The Project focuses on increase in resilience and efficiency of the distribution network.
