Stakeholder engagement and management of their concerns regarding taxes

Given the magnitude of Norte Energia’s operation and the amount of its transactions and taxes collected, the company is subject to “monitoring of the largest taxpayers” by both the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service and the State of Pará Finance Department, resulting in constant contact and monitoring by the regulatory bodies. In this context, the company adopts a transparent and collaborative approach in its relationship with tax authorities. This relationship is based on principles of integrity, compliance and respect for current tax regulations.
