To allow upstream migrant fishes to pass around Igarapava Dam, a vertical-slot fish ladder, 325.0 m long and 17.5 m high, with a 6% slope was built.

Residential consumption in the first half, however, fell by 1.15%, a product of the electricity rationing measures implemented by the Brazilian Government in the second quarter.

Operating expenses increased by 18.87% to R$257.3 million, substantially due to the higher expenses accrued in energy purchased for resale, personnel and the CCC charge (fuel consumption account).
