Creation of the Vice Presidency of Operations

COPEL (“the Company”) hereby informs its shareholders and the market in general that the Board of Directors has approved a change to the organizational structure of the Company’s Executive Board, which includes, among other modifications, the creation of the Vice Presidency of Operations.

The new structure—whose functions, duties, and responsibilities for each member of the Executive Board will be detailed in internal regulations to be approved by the Board of Directors in due course—aims to integrate the Company’s operational management and capture synergies in the generation, transmission, distribution, and trading segments, in line with the Strategic Plan, operational excellence, and discipline in capital allocation.

Copel President Daniel Slaviero has nominated Mr. Rogério Pereira Jorge to lead the Vice Presidency of Operations. The executive, currently General Manager of the wholly-owned subsidiary GenCo S.A., has over 28 years of executive experience in the Brazilian electricity sector and, upon deliberation by the Board of Directors, will assume the new Vice Presidency on January 4, 2027.

The Company reaffirms its commitment to transparency, corporate governance, continuous improvement of customer service, and disciplined execution of its long-term strategy, while keeping the market and its shareholders promptly informed.
