Energy Management

TIM depends on a constant supply of energy at a competitive cost for its telecommunications networks, stores and administrative buildings. Given its impacts and strategic importance, in addition to being a material topic for the company, energy management is one of the commitments assumed in the 2023-25 ESG Plan, with targets for the transition to renewable energy and emissions reductions.

The 2023-25 Strategic Plan reflects the company’s concern about more efficient energy use for data traffic and assumes the commitment of promoting an 110% increase in energy efficiency by 2025. To reach this target, a TIM is replacing equipment with more efficient models, enhancing its production processes and monitoring consumption by means of an eco-efficiency indicator. TIM also reinforces its commitment to maintain 100% of its energy consumption from renewable sources by 2025.

The company has a centralized area which manages energy consumption throughout the operation. Among other attributions, the team responsible plans and monitors consumption and the energy efficiency projects in place.

TIM energy management is based on two fronts: energy efficiency and the pursuit of renewable sources.

³ The company has reduced its fleet of diesel-powered vehicles.
4 Increase due to the need of activations to supply power failures and also for maintenance.
5 Considers captive market, free market, distributed generation project and the Sky Coverage project.
