Sustainability Report ENEVA 2020

L Team P SUSTAINABILITY REPORT [ENEVA 2020] PLAN THT 5.2.1 Innovation Drivers In this sense, our projects are divided into the following fronts: To be an innovational pioneer within the Brazilian energy market, we utilize a portfolio of projects with balanced risk, based on two innovation models: Sustaining Which aims to identify and/or develop technologies to sustain and/or improve the efficiency and profitability of our assets and whose selection criteria include expected return and ease of implementation Disruptive Which seeks to identify and monitor technological and market trends within our industries of operation and in which we consider strategic alignment, market potential, and competitive landscape. Eneva Ventures We seek to access high quality human capital to create value in different ways, acting in New Businesses, Investments, and the Startup Acceleration Program. Eneva Ventures' main interests include technologies that improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our assets (cost reduction, big data and machine learning); and the creation of new business models and penetration in new markets (Distributed Generation, new matrices, free market, electric mobility). In 2020, we completed Eneva Ventures' first investment cycle and held Innovation Day, with the participation of startups, to develop innovative solutions for our industry and our business. In 2021, in partnership with GV Angels, Eneva Ventures made the first investment of R$515,000 in the startup Sunne Energias Renováveis, to support the commercial management of Distributed Generation (DG) plants, including billing and customer service. R&D of Aneel We support innovation initiatives through the Research & Development (R&D) program of the Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL). Companies in the electricity industry have a regulatory obligation to invest 1% of their Net Operating Revenue (NOR) into the agency's R&D projects every year (learn more in the next topic). R&D of ANP We also support R&D projects through the National Agency for Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP). The ANP R&D aims to encourage solutions for products and/or processes in partnership with Brazilian companies, seeking to improve competitiveness and creating technological innovations for the oil and gas industry.
