In carrying out socio-environmental projects with communities, we also aim to meet the real demands of people in a way that is aligned with the business and purposes of the Enel Group, with a focus on creating shared value. The 30 programs with 422 projects developed by Enel Brasil in 2023 benefited more than 1.8 million people, with an investment of R$ 167 million, in 12 states of the country. Additionally, R$ 48.3 million in extra income was generated for communities through employability and entrepreneurship projects.

Enel Shares Green Attitude |
The program brings together environmental education projects through the engagement of teachers, students, and the local population on topics relevant to the territories where Enel Green Power is present, such as the preservation of fauna, flora, and the socio-environmental environment in the areas of influence of generation ventures. In 2023, more than 19,000 people benefited from 62 projects distributed across nine states. Within the Enel Shares Green Attitude program, the following stand out:
- Ecological Tourism: project carried out in partnership between the Power Plant (Mourão) and the administration of the Ecological Park, which aims to improve the infrastructure for leisure tourism through the reform of signage and access to trails, as well as improve the facilities of the visitor area at the park's reception, generating 3,360 beneficiaries.
- Environmental Education Program: actions with communities around the plants that aim to create conditions for the participation of different social actors in the environmental management process, and understanding their roles as agents and citizens for the improvement of individual and collective quality of life, with 6,931 beneficiaries.
- Cinesolar: environmental education campaigns on different topics through cinema sessions using solar technology, generating 4,211 beneficiaries.
Enel Shares Efficiency |
Enabled by the National Electric Energy Agency (Aneel), the Energy Efficiency Program aims to promote the more efficient use of energy with the population and other Enel stakeholders in its concession area. In 2023, the company invested about R$ 71 million in various projects that encourage the efficient use of energy. The Public Project Call is one of the fronts of the Program aimed at customers in the commerce and services, residential, industrial, rural, public sector, and public lighting segments. Another highlight is the initiatives developed with the population in situations of social vulnerability. In 2023, about 11,000 old refrigerators were replaced with new models with the Procel A efficiency seal. Additionally, 783,000 common light bulbs were replaced with LED ones. Ecoenel is another initiative that contributes to energy efficiency through material recycling. Last year, the program collected more than 7,000 tons of waste, representing an energy savings of around 31,222 MWh/year.
Network Gardens |
Project developed by Enel Distribuição São Paulo, which uses the strips under the distributor's transmission lines to implement gardens in densely populated peripheral areas in the metropolitan region of the capital. The project includes 49 active gardens and provides surrounding communities with job opportunities, professional qualification, and income generation through the commercialization of products cultivated by the farmers. The most significant innovation of the project is moving from a scenario of value destruction to a scenario of shared value creation. Another innovative aspect concerns social inclusion: women and the elderly, often excluded or neglected in the formal labor market, are the groups that benefit the most from the garden production and commercialization activities. The project also provides an improvement in people's quality of life and contributes to local landscaping. From 2021 to the end of 2023, R$ 865,000 in income was generated for participating farmers.
Enel Shares Entrepreneurship, Associativism, and Management of Traditional Communities |
The Associativism and Management of Traditional Communities project aims to strengthen associativism and social capital, and to train business management in five quilombola communities located in the municipalities of Campo Formoso, Andaraí, and Morro do Chapéu in Bahia, in areas of influence of Enel Green Power's generation plants. The project aims to promote local development through actions and indicators to strengthen associativism, and the production and commercialization of products from traditional communities. For this purpose, in 2023, intensive work was carried out with the participants, resulting in the systematization and analysis of data from the participatory monitoring process conducted with leaders and other members of the associations representing the communities, to establish an action plan and indicators for the next 3 years (2023-2026). Furthermore, it resulted in the consolidation of community association monitoring indicators, with their respective metrics, deadlines, responsible parties, and verification methods. For one of the communities, a meeting was held to learn about its history, leadership, and dreams. The project also provided face-to-face meetings among the five communities served, one of them at the Federal University of Bahia for the exchange of experiences and technical production support for the communities. By 2023, 111 people had been directly benefited, and in 2024, the work will be expanded to communities in Piauí.
Enel Shares Green Attitude Sustainable Semi-Arid |
Aligned with the public commitments assumed with the 2030 Agenda and based on the Sustainability Plan of the Delfina Wind Park, Enel Green Power completed the implementation in 2023 of the Sustainable Semi-Arid project, using resilient water and soil use technologies in communities in the area of influence of the plant, located in the municipalities of Campo Formoso and Juazeiro, in Bahia. The project directly benefited 1,722 people, 1,484 in 2023, identified after a socio-economic analysis of the communities, focusing on those most impacted by the lack of access to water. The initiative included the construction of 85 cisterns for storing drinking water for the benefiting communities, 25 ecological septic tanks (banana eco-septic tanks), installation of 33 Bioágua systems for reusing greywater for family farming, and 45 cistern water purification systems (Aqualuz). The project also delivered 60 productive backyards and engaged 875 students, 20 teachers and school managers, and three Local Rural Productive Groups, bringing improvements in the quality of life for families through access to drinking water and water reuse for garden cultivation.

In compliance with Law No. 14,611 of July 4, 2023, MTE Ordinance No. 3,714, Decree No. 11,795/2023, and finally, the company's commitment to gender equity and the promotion of an inclusive work environment, we disclose our Transparency and Wage Equality Reports made available by the Ministry of Labor and Employment - MTE, on the Emprega Brasil portal.
The data analysis is carried out using the Brazilian Classification of Occupations (CBO), which does not correctly reflect possible differences between the remuneration of men and women. The remuneration of the company's professionals is defined considering technical knowledge, complexity, and responsibility of each position.
The reports were released by the Ministry of Labor and Employment for companies with 100 or more employees.
Report Results:
Median Contractual Salaries:
In the first indicator, the median salary (contractual salary) of men and women for the year 2023 was considered.
Average Remuneration:
In the second indicator, the average remuneration (including additions and deductions) of men and women for the year 2023 was considered.
Average by Occupation Group:
In this indicator, the average salary (contractual salary) and the average remuneration (including additions and deductions) of men and women for the year 2023, by occupation group, as determined by the CBO (Brazilian Classification of Occupations), were considered.
Note 1: As noted initially, we reinforce that the impact of CBO classification can provide distortion when we observe this data compared to the methodology used by Enel and recognized by the market for measuring organizational positions.
Note 2: The second report released by the MTE in September/2024 shows divergence in the period reference in the graphs – behold, despite indicating that the data considered is from Rais 2023, all graphs indicate data from 2022.
Composition of total employees by gender, ethnicity, and race:
In this indicator, the average number of employees in 2023 separated by men and women by gender, ethnicity, and race was considered.
Note: In this category, the information disclosed reflects the data reported by employees who self-declared.
Remuneration Criteria and actions to ensure diversity:
Finally, the report demonstrates practices and procedures used by Enel companies regarding remuneration and diversity actions.
We recognize that wage equality is just one aspect of our broader commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Our strategy foresees the continuous implementation of policies and practices that promote a fair and respectful work environment for all members of our team.
