Lectures about the domestic and worldwide macroeconomic scenario, and contextualization of the energy market and regulatory environment have been part of the routine of many professionals since June. The lecture cycle is part of the CPFL Energia Strategic Plan for the 2013-2017 period. The document will be presented to the Board of Directors in September.

Over the course of the June, specialists

debated the key issues for CPFL Energia’s future. Next, between July and August, presentations were made containing reflections about current business and growth possibilities.

The plan for the next four years is based on Operational Excellence with Innovation in Processes and Strategic Growth, supported by the Transformation Program.

CPFL Energia participated in the event run by the Association of Capital Market Analysts and Investment Professionals (Apimec) in Belo Horizonte on August 16. During the meeting, Eduardo Takeiti, Investor Relations Officer, made a presentation to the 60 participants, emphasizing that “it is necessary to demystify the issue that the return on investment realized in the generation segment is higher than

that achieved in the distribution segment currently.”Through operational excellence, financial discipline and

synergy gains on the part of the distribution companies, it is possible to operate within the regulatory limits and, at the same time, create value for shareholders. He also discussed about solar power generation investments, that while still using expensive technology already is being exploited by companies in the industry, including CPFL Energia.

CPFL Piratininga undergoes 3rd tariff review cycle

Four cost reduction fronts

In order to anticipate the impacts of the tariff review on its electric distribution companies, CPFL Energia launched four cost reductions initiatives

The Incentivized Retirement Program (PAI) — a special

retirement plan that should reduce payroll costs by R$ 25 million per year already has been accepted by 450

employees.

The Implementation of the Corporate Services Center

— focused on the key activities and specialization of functions in our business areas, offering economies

of scale in the services provided by the center.

Zero Base Budget (ZBB) — review of the budget structure that seeks to

generate savings of R$ 50 million per year through

2015.

The Tauron Program – calls for the installation of smart grid technologies in distribution network. The estimated savings should be some R$ 100 million

per year.

The tariff for CPFL Piratininga, a company that supplies electricity to 1.5 million clients in the southern part of the state of São Paulo, was subjected for periodic review by the Aneel, as part of the 3rd Tariff Review Cycle. The preliminary proposal released by Aneel is an average reduction to consumers of 8.18% in their electric bills, although the tariff repositioning — which is essentially an economic-financial adjustment of the concession — will be less than this and will reduce the CPFL Piratininga Revenues by approximately 3.4%. “Aneel’s position generally is a reflection of consumer perception, in this case a negative 8.18%. However, the tariff repositioning —that is, the correct application of all of the tariff revision elements — is -3.4%, which means the repositioning in terms of economic values,” explained the CEO´sCPFL Energia, Wilson Ferreira Jr., during the earnings 2Q results webcast

The 3rd tariff review cycle process has began in 2010 with discussions between ANEEL and sector agents regarding

the new methodology to be applied to all companies. The decision for a new tariff for CPFL Piratininga began to be discussed last June, when Aneel sent its first proposal to the company for evaluation. On August 16, a public hearing was held in Sorocaba when the ANEEL received the company’s suggestions as well as those of society in general regarding the distribution company’s tariff revision. After the conclusion of the public hearing processes, a new proposal will be sent to CPFL Piratininga in September and new meetings will be held with the Aneel Board of Directors. The release and adoption of the new tariffs should occur at the end of October.

The new tariff was expected to be applied in October 2011, but was postponed due to the prolonging of the discussions regarding new methodology. Therefore, next October not only will the new tariff be applied but also the annual tariff readjustment, which basically involves the monetary correction of the tariff components.

Innovations of a century-old company

Five thousand solar panels for transforming the heat of the sun into electric energy will be installed in the Tanquinho Substation in Campinas in the month of November, when CPFL Energia will complete one century of existence. The first power plant for generating clean and sustainable energy from the solar matrix is just one of 30 R&D projects (Research and Development) in the current portfolio, wich receives investments of R$ 1.6 billion in this commemorative year. The

volume of investments in new projects shows that CPFL Energia incorporated the innovation into its activities and has reached its 100th birthday with plenty of vigor of its own to spare. Demonstrating a century-old level of wisdom, the company has diversified into renewable energy sources and has been continuously improving its distribution services, free market energy sales and services for the sector.

The company’s roots in innovation, present ever since its

creation, represents the key to the solidity of the group, which currently controls eight distribution companies, eight hydroelectric power plants (HPPs), two thermoelectric power plants, 44 small hydroelectric power plants (SPPHs), six biomass-fueled power plants and 15 wind farms, totaling installed capacity proportional to the ownership interests of each project, of 2,948 MW.

The direction being taken by the Brazilian energy industry and its history over the past 100 years motivated the discussions during CPFL Cultura’s Invention of the Contemporary Program during the month of August. Under the curatorship of Nivalde J. de Castro, professor at Institute of Economy of UFRJ and coordinator of its Electric Sector Studies Group (GESEL), the program

expanded the range of issues involving the electric sector from the point of view of four central elements of its formation and consolidation, planning, operation, regulation and financing. The videos with the presentations of the module containing reflections about the electric sector produced by CPFL Cultura are available completeness at the following website: www.cpflcultura.com.br
