EMAE, or Empresa Metropolitana de Águas e Energia, has a rich history rooted in the early 20th century. The company's journey began with the visionary engineer Asa White Kenney Billings, who in 1923, embarked on the ambitious "Projeto da Serra." This project aimed to generate electricity by harnessing the natural elevation drop of the Serra do Mar, a mountain range in Brazil.
Originally part of Eletropaulo, EMAE was established over a century ago under the umbrella of Light, a company strategically involved in the rectification of the Pinheiros River and the utilization of the Alto Tietê basin. This strategic positioning allowed EMAE to become a key player in Brazil's energy sector.
In recent years, EMAE has undergone significant transformations. A pivotal moment in its history was its privatization, which set the stage for a new era of growth and investment. Following this transition, EMAE announced plans to invest R$2.6 billion in expansion by 2029, focusing on enhancing its infrastructure and capacity to meet the growing energy demands.
Today, EMAE stands as a testament to the enduring vision of its founders and the strategic decisions that have shaped its path. The company's commitment to sustainable energy solutions continues to drive its operations, ensuring that it remains at the forefront of Brazil's energy landscape.
