CURITIBA, PARANA, BRAZIL, May 9, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Copel's recurring EBITDA amounted to R$1,503.2 million in 1Q25, 13.0% higher than in 1Q24, demonstrating the ongoing advances in management efficiency and the consolidation of operational excellence practices. GenCo and TradeCo together accounted for 53.5% of this result, while DisCo accounted for 46.1%.

The highlights of this quarter were,

(i) DisCo’s recurring EBITDA grew 12.4% in relation to 1Q24, totaling R$692.9 million, mainly due to the 0.9% growth in the billed wire market and the average readjustment of 2.7% in June/2024 in the Tariffs for the Use of the Distribution System - TUSD; partially offset by the higher volume coming from the micro and mini distributed generation compensation system (MMGD);

(ii) GenCo's EBITDA increased by 13.9%, driven by a higher volume of energy sold (5,971 GWh compared to 5,778 GWh in 1Q24) and the higher average energy price of the portfolio (R$173.16/MWh compared to R$171.55/MWh in 1Q24); and the reduction in the generation deviation of R$15.3 million (-30.5%), as a result of the higher volume of wind, partially offset by the increase in curtailment in 1Q25 (6.8% compared to 1.9% in 1Q24) and the unavailability of some machines; and

(iii) the 22.3% decrease (-R$65.6 million) in personnel and administration costs, influenced by the reduction of 1,382 employees between 1Q24 and 1Q25, mostly explained by the Voluntary Dismissal Program (PDV), concluded in 2024.
