With regard to medium voltage customers, a total of 1430<br />

transferred from the SEP to the SENV, which was at the<br />

root of the reduction of over 20% of the SEP sales in this<br />

segment when compared with the previous year.<br />

The total number of customers has increased over the<br />

past five years at a compound annual rate of 2.2%, while<br />

the ratio of customers to employees in the distribution<br />

<strong>business</strong> rose from 586 in 1999 to 910 at the end of 2003.<br />

The amount of electricity bought during 2003 <strong>for</strong><br />

consumption by SEP fell 2.4% following the transfer of<br />

customers from the SEP to the SENV. However, the<br />

decline of purchases from REN was considerably less<br />

significant as a result of the sharp growth of purchases<br />

from PRE and from SENV.<br />

Commercial Service Quality<br />

2003 - Annual Report - <strong>EDP</strong><br />

Publication of the new RQS (Service Quality Regulations),<br />

which came into effect in February 2003, increased the<br />

ef<strong>for</strong>ts of <strong>EDP</strong> Distribuição to adapt to the new market<br />

conditions. There<strong>for</strong>e, taking into account the full<br />

liberalisation of the sector in <strong>2004</strong>, measures continued to<br />

be implemented during 2003 designed to optimise the<br />

quality of services provided to customers and to increase<br />

response capacity.<br />

As a result of these ef<strong>for</strong>ts, particularly the IT systems of a<br />

commercial nature that came into service, it has been<br />

possible to quantify the per<strong>for</strong>mance of the quality<br />

service indicators defined in article 30 of the General<br />

Service Quality Regulations.<br />

Despite the fact that it was not possible to comply with all<br />

the standards imposed by the RQS, it can be expected<br />

that, once the changes to the procedures in question are<br />

implemented, it will be possible to comply with them as a<br />

whole in <strong>2004</strong>.<br />

With regard to waiting time at the centralised call center<br />

<strong>EDP</strong> complied with RQS as a result of the improvements<br />

compared with 2002. The RQS has still not complied with<br />

complaint response times despite the improvement.<br />
