These are the references that guide the formulation of the programs and actions of the operational plan and measure the business performance and the contributions to sustainability, necessary to achieve the strategic objectives. They are reviewed and updated annually. The analysis of the following performances includes, in addition to the metrics of the tactical guidelines, the targets of greenhouse gas emissions established voluntarily in Declaration of Commitment signed with Eletrobras, in 2016.

For 2019, important indicators of sustainability performance evaluation were approved. The main ones are socio-environmental performance in the Corporate Sustainability Index (ISE) of Brazil, Bolsa, Balcão [B]³, in alignment with Eletrobras; and, for the first time, the Itaipu Sustainability index, to perform a self-assessment on issues such as anti-corruption, risks, compliance practices, environmental management, climate change, human rights and social impacts.

Itaipu’s policies, strategic objectives and business goals are aligned with the main international documents of sustainability, and today, its socio-environmental actions respond to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) of the United Nations (UN). SDG are global targets, also known as 2030 Agenda, taken up by UN member countries, established to improve the living conditions of the world population. Among 521 programs and actions of the business plan, it was identified that 233 of them contribute with 76 of the total of 169 SDG goals, as shown in the chart below.
