Foz do Chapecó HPPWe have just obtained the Operating

License (OL) for the Foz do Chapecó hydroelectric power plant on the Uruguay River between Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul and we are now in the process of filling the reservoir.

Within a very short amount of time we will be adding another 436.05 MW to our generation capacity, which represents the 51% ownership interest we have in the project. The investments that CPFL has made in the project reached R$

When in full operation, Foz do Chapecó will generate enough electric power to satisfy 25% of the energy consumption in Santa Catarina or, put another way, the

residential consumption of a city of over 5 million inhabitants.

Foz do Chapecó is our eighth hydro-electric power plant. Our commitment as of now with our shareholders and investors is to continue to seek new growth opportunities in portfolios that are attractive from the value creation point of view. We are working towards this.

Message from the CEO

CPFL Energia signed its first purchase of power deriving from sugarcane biomass during the 1990s and quickly became the largest buyer of energy from this source, a position it retains until today through the purchase of about 250 MWaverage.

Now, besides being a major buyer, CPFL has become a generator of electricity from sugarcane bagasse, as of the startup of its first biomass power plant.

The Baldin thermoelectric power plant was built in Pirassununga/SP,

representing an investment of R$ 104 million. The plant has an installed capacity of 45 MW, of which 24 MW can be exported. This business takes on greater importance because it inserts a new renewable matrix into CPFL, signaling the sustainable posture of the company to the market.

Currently, the share of bioelectricity in the Brazilian electricity matrix is 4.7%, the equivalent to 5,600 MW. In 2020, the forecast is that this number will reach 10%, with 14,400 MW of installed capacity.

Market investors and analysts participated in the IV CPFL Energia Investors Meeting in partnership with Apimec SP August 19 in Campinas, at the company’s headquarters. The event brought together more than 100 participants and some of CPFL Energia’s main executives to discuss the trends and outlook for both the company and the electricity sector, as well as to present the earnings results for the second quarter of 2010.

The CEO of CPFL Energia, Wilson Ferreira Jr., made a presentation in which he discussed the different market and regulatory scenarios, the strategic direction the company is taking regarding alternative energy sources and

the prospects for Group’s expansion in the different segments in which it is active.

For his part, Hélio Viana Pereira, vice president for Distribution, stated that the company’s investments seek suspension of the electricity network coupled with its modernization and maintenance.

Miguel Abdalla Saad, vice president for Generation, explained that the operating license for the Foz do Chapecó hydroelectric power plant was about ready to be granted. The document in fact was obtained several days after the meeting.

The cycle of presentations was closed with a talk by the vice president for

Commercialization, Paulo Cezar Coelho Tavares, who detailed the expansion of CPFL Brasil in terms of energy and services sales since its creation in 2003, and showed the prospects for growth in the services segment through 2014, which would represent a leap in the results from this area of business.

After lunch, the participants were driven to Pirassununga where they made a technical visit to the Baldin thermoelectric power plant, the Group’s first sugarcane-fired termoelectric power plant. The plant is equipped with two generators, one rated at 30 MW and the other at 15 MW, capable of delivering 24 MW of assured power per harvest for export of energy to the Group.

Trucost study was of conventional energy generationCPFL was elected by British consulting company Trucost, which specializes

in environmental impact evaluations, to be the company that had the lowest carbon emissions in its category (“conventional power generator”) in 2009.

The recently published study analyzed greenhouse gas, sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogenous oxides (NOx) emissions as well as nuclear waste from 107 electric power companies around the world, divided into two categories — conventional power generator and renewable power generator.

CPFL Energia’s energy matrix was considered 1,000 times less carbon intensive in comparison with the electric energy company with the highest level of carbon emissions in the conventional power generator category, a Chinese enterprise.

CPFL Energia sold 14 MWaverage of wind energy during the 3rd Reserve Energy Auction, held by the Electric Power Commercialization Chamber (CCEE), which will be generated by the Campo dos Ventos II wind farm in Rio Grande do Norte. The price obtained through this operation was R$ 126.19/MWh, which will yield annual net revenues of R$ 16 million through a 20-year contract. This increase in the company’s generation capacity is in addition to the Santa Clara and Euros wind farms, with 188 MW of installed capacity, and its commercial start-up are scheduled to come on stream in July 2012.

The power to be generated by CPFL Biopedra’s thermoelectric power plants in Serrana/SP also was sold at the 3rd Reserve Energy Auction. The company sold 24.4 MWaverage of sugarcane biomass energy. The price obtained through this operation was R$ 145.48/MW through a 15-year contract valid as of 2012, adding R$ 31 million in annual net revenues to the Group.

CPFL Energia disclosed its main achievements and financial results for the first half of 2010 to over 200 investors during a meeting organized by the National Investors Institute (INI) in Piracicaba/SP.

The event, held on August 21, was aimed at investors and market professionals, involving disclosure about the companies, the company’s long-term investment culture and investments in shares.
