In addition to its core electricity business, COPEL has developed a telecommunications arm that utilizes its extensive network infrastructure.

Its distribution operations serve millions of residential, commercial and industrial clients, under a regulated tariff framework set by national and state energy agencies. As a mixed-ownership company, COPEL is governed by a board of directors appointed in part by the state government, with day-to-day management entrusted to a professional executive team. Through ongoing investments in grid modernization, smart metering and digital platforms, COPEL aims to enhance service quality and support the energy transition in southern Brazil.
