MAIN EVENTS

In 2017, events occurred that impacted the Financial Statements for the year:

A) Expenses with electricity purchased at CCEE

The Company was heavily impacted by the GSF - Generation Scaling Factor and by the High Settlement Fees (PLD), which reflected the amount recorded as an expense on energy purchases at CCEE of R$ 627 million (R$ 123.6 million in 2016).

B) Update of the balance of judicial deposits

After conducting studies and legal support from a tax specialist, the Company voluntarily changed its policy and began to update the balance of judicial deposits in 2017, with retroactive effect, in accordance with item 14 (a) of the Pronouncement Technical CPC 23 - Accounting Policies, Change of Estimate and Error Rectification. The impacts of the update are summarized below:

E) Debt Agreement with Fundação CESP

The balance of the Mathematical Reserves agreement, which was R$ 129.8 million at 12.31.2016, had its balance reduced to zero, due to the surplus of the social security plan registered at Fundação CESP, of R$ 204.4 million at 12.31.2017.

F) Economic Conjuncture

In 2017, the General Market Price Index (IGP-M) recorded deflation of 0.52%, compared to inflation of 7.17% in 2016. Inflation as measured by the Extended Consumer Price Index (IPCA) also declined, reaching 2,95% against 6.29% in 2016. The Real depreciated 1.5% against the US dollar, against a valuation of 16.54% registered in the previous year.

GENERATOR COMPLEX

CESP – Companhia Energética de São Paulo holds the concession for three hydroelectric plants, operating under the price regime, with 18 generating units and a total installed capacity of 1,654.6 MW and 1,081.0 MW physical guarantee. The plants are located in the hydrographic basins of the Paraná River in the west of the state São Paulo and the Paraíba do Sul River in the east of the state and comprising the following generator facilities:

On March 17, 2017, the Company filed a lawsuit against the Federal Government, seeking the annulment of Administrative Ordinance N°. 258/2016, which reduced the physical guarantee of the Porto Primavera Plant to 992.6 MW. On 08.01.2017, the Federal Government filed a defense, and so far there has been no manifestation of judgment.

On May 3, 2017, the MME - Ministry of Mines and Energy published Ordinance N°. 178, reviewing the physical guarantees of power plants throughout the country, and reducing from 2018 the physical guarantee of the Porto Primavera UHE from 992.6 to 941.8 average MW, from the Paraibuna UHE of 50.0 to 47.5 average MW, and Jaguari UHE from 14.0 to 13.3 average MW. So the physical guarantee marketable in 2018 will decrease from the current 1,056.6 to 1,002.6 average MW.

Três Irmãos Hydroelectric Plant

On July 9, 2014, the Company entered in to the Federal Court, in Brasilia, with an Ordinary Proceeding Action with an Application for Preliminary Injunction, in the face of the Federal Government, requesting compensation for the investments not yet amortized, in view of the reversal of the assets and facilities of Plant. In the same action, CESP demands the payment of the uncontroversial amount, which amounts

to R$ 1.7 billion (at 2012 prices), and is still pending the final decision of the Federal Regional Court. On September 9th, 2015 the court granted the production of engineering expert requested by CESP, being that the expertise began “in loco” in the second fortnight of the month of April of 2017 and is currently awaiting the presentation of the report to be offered by the expert of the court. On February 29, 2016, there was a favorable decision on the admission of the State of São Paulo to the case as interested, based on art. 5th, sole paragraph of Law 9,469/97.

Ilha Solteira e Jupiá Plants On July 7, 2015, the concessions of the two largest hydroelectric plants of the company were closed down, Ilha Solteira and Jupiá, which together represented 75% of the installed capacity. As the Company did not adhere the conditions established in MP 579 for the renewal of concessions, as from July 8, 2015, all physical guarantee of these plants was allocated to the quota system, with CESP being responsible for the operation and maintenance of the plants until 30 June, 2016, when the new concessionaire was assumed. During this period, CESP was remunerated at a tariff defined by ANEEL. On October 9, 2015, CESP filed an indemnification action against the Federal Government, in order to pay the Company the amount due for the reversal of the assets and installations linked to the exploration of concession of the Ilha Solteira and Jupiá Plants, not yet depreciated. The Company understands that it should receive the updated recorded in its accounts. The amount claimed for these assets is R$ 1.6 billion at the time of action. The Federal Government presented its response to the lawsuit on February 16, 2016 and CESP, on May 3, 2016, reinforced its claims and rights and requested accounting and documentary evidence. The designation of the expert is still pending. On 08/26/2016, the State of São Paulo petitioned for admission as a simple assistant to CESP. On 03/27/2017, the court granted the entry of the State of São Paulo. On July 10, 2017, CESP filed a petition stating the documents and information gathered by the federal government.

ELECTRIC ENERGY PRODUCTION

In the fourth quarter of 2017, CESP's Electric Power Production, following the commands of the National Electric System Operator - ONS, reached 2,419.7 GWh in the fourth quarter. In 2017, the volume reached 9,473.9 GWh, approximately the same level as the previous year.

COMMERCIALIZATION

CESP's customers are: (i) the country's electricity distributors that buy energy in auctions on the regulated market through long-term contracts; (ii) traders and free consumers, who acquire energy through public offers in short, medium and long-term bilateral contracts.

CESP sells energy under the following market: Free Contracting Market – ACL: through short-, medium- and long-term Power Purchasing Agreements with volumes, conditions and prices negotiated with trading companies and free consumers. Regulated Contracting Market – ACR: through power purchasing auctions organized by ANEEL and held through the intermediation of the CCEE to supply the distributors.

Electric Energy Trading Chamber - CCEE: where the differences between the produced, net physical guarantee and contracted energy are booked and settled in part to meet requirements under the Energy Reallocation Mechanism at regulated tariffs which cover the variable costs of energy generation only and partly as surplus and secondary energy at Prices for the Settlement of Differences - PLD as determined by the CCEE.

REVENUES

In 2017, Energy Sales Revenue reached R$ 1,746.7 million, a reduction of 14.6% in relation to 2016 (R$ 2,045.9 million), especially in the free market, of 19.9% over the previous year.

19

Energy from New Projects – Electric energy from new plants, new projects in the bidding process and projects granted or authorized until March 16, 2004, which began commercial operations as of January 1, 2000 and whose energy was not contracted until March 16, 2004. It is also called New Energy.

GSF (Generation Scaling Factor, MRE Factor) – is an Adjustment Factor on Assured Generated Energy that consider a reduction of assured energy of the MRE units when the total energy generated is less than the total assured energy. GSF = Hydraulic Generation in SIN / Total Generation in SIN. Then a GSF <100% indicates that the MRE plants generated less than their physical security.

FIDC – Credit Rights Investment fund, as established by the rules of the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM). Receivables securitization.

Supply of energy – Sale of energy to large consumers.

Physical Assurance – This is the amount of energy that an agent is authorized to market in contracts, such as electricity supply, measured in average megawatts (MW). Determined by ANEEL as the amount of electricity, on average, that a plant can produce and trade on a sustainable basis 365 days per year, with a risk factor of 5%. (It replaces the concept of assured energy).
