Describe the process(es) your organization has in place to ensure that your engagement activities are consistent with your overall climate change strategy[…]With the Paris Agreement, discussed during the 2015 COP21 (United Nations Conference on Climate Change) and approved in 2016, the signatory nations committed to restricting the average increase in global temperature to 2°C above pre-industrial levels and, if possible, limiting it to 1.5°C.
Fully aware of the role we play in addressing the question of climate change and in strict alignment with the pillars of our Sustainability Strategy, at CPFL Energia:
- We are committed to the goals of the Paris Agreement and to the need to limit the increase in the average global temperature to 1.5°C, with the consequent reduction in GHG emissions;
- We invest in our vocation to generate energy from renewable sources, maintaining a diversified portfolio;
- We recognize that climate change not only presents risks, but also opportunities for the company and for its clients, and that these
require the adoption of adaptation measures;
- We focus on innovation as a fundamental driver of the transition process to a low carbon economy;
- We support the energy transition of our clients through the provision of decarbonization solutions and energy efficiency measures; and
- We believe in partnering with other organizations and actors to enable the systemic changes necessary to combat climate change, including the transformation of business models to confront the upcoming socio-environmental challenges.
