Together with the partnership agreement executed with AES, informed in the Announcement to the Market released on August 17, 2021, and with BRF's current clean energy portfolio, the Company will reach 88% of electricity from clean and renewable sources in Brazil, rapidly advancing towards its goal of expanding the use of this type of energy in its operations.
