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 />

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 />
