I haven't found for São Paulo specifically. The national system is very well integrated in any case.
In Brazil as a whole, it's 64% hydroelectric; 27% thermoelectric (40% of those biomass), 7% wind (I didn't expect it was that high already), 1% nuclear and 0.1% solar.
As rainfall is in under average for over the two years in Southeast and Centre-West, reservoirs are at very low levels and the country is about to face an energy crisis of epic proportions. Things are not only even more dramatic because the economy is still at 2012 levels and 2022 doesn't look promising, so power demand is not set to increase.
