Covering all its operations, TIM Environmental Policy sets forth three basic commitments: protecting the environment, complying with legal requirements and organizational standards and the ongoing improvement of the company’s Environmental Management System (EMS) to enhance environmental performance. Furthermore, TIM is committed to a series of principles, worthy of note being waste management, efficient natural resource consumption, continuous improvement and the prevention of pollution.
With practices fully aligned with company standards, since 2010 the TIM EMS has had ISO 14.001 environmental certification for network management and operations in the states of Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Espírito Santo.
We recognize the important role that our Radio Base Stations (RBSs) and datacenters play in connectivity (the Company’s asset portfolio includes around 30,000 RBSs), but we also recognize the responsibility we have to guarantee that their installation and operation respect the environment and the surrounding communities.
In some cases, it is necessary to install RBSs in biodiversity conservation areas, such as Environmental Protection Areas (EPAs) and Permanent Preservation Areas (PPAs). In such situations, eachof these installations is duly authorized by the competent public authorities, adhering to a rigorous set of laws and technical regulations, ensuring that the technological advances and the democratization of connectivity are conducted in harmony with the preservation of fragile ecosystem.
In its network, in 2025, TIM had 1,885 active biosites. Among their positive aspects, the biosites incorporate technological solutions without causing a visual impact on the landscape. Additionally the installation of the structure occupies less space.
