Global Medium Term Note Programme
On 7th December, 2000 ENEL Società per Azioni ("ENEL") entered into a Global Medium Term Note Programme (the "Programme")
and issued an Offering Circular on that date describing the Programme. The Programme was subsequently updated on 10th May, 2001
and was further updated on 28th October, 2002. This Offering Circular supersedes all previous Offering Circulars. Any Notes (as defined
below) issued under the Programme on or after the date of this Offering Circular are issued subject to the provisions herein. This does not
affect any Notes already issued.
Under the Programme, each of ENEL and ENEL Investment Holding B.V. ("ENEL B.V.", and, each of ENEL and ENEL B.V. an "Issuer")
may from time to time issue notes (the "Notes") denominated in any currency agreed between the relevant Issuer and the relevant Dealer
(as defined below). References in this Offering Circular to the "relevant Issuer" shall, in relation to any Tranche of Notes, be construed as
references to the Issuer which is, or is intended to be, the Issuer of such Notes as indicated in the applicable Pricing Supplement. The
payment of all amounts owing in respect of Notes issued by ENEL B.V. will be unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by ENEL in its
capacity as guarantor (the "Guarantor").
ENEL B.V. has a right of substitution as set out in Condition 16. ENEL B.V. may at any time after 1st January, 2004, without the consent of
the Noteholders, Receiptholders or the Couponholders, substitute for itself as principal debtor under the Notes, Receipts and the Coupons
ENEL as Issuer. ENEL shall indemnify each Noteholder, Receiptholder and Couponholder against (A) any tax, duty, assessment or
governmental charge which is imposed on such Noteholder, Receiptholder or Couponholder by (or by any authority in or of) the Republic
of Italy with respect to any Note, Receipt or Coupon and which would not have been so imposed had the substitution not been made and
(B) any tax, duty, assessment or governmental charge, and any cost or expense relating to the substitution, except that ENEL shall not be
liable under such indemnity to pay any additional amounts either on account of "imposta sostitutiva" or on account of any other withholding
or deduction in the event of payment of interest or other amounts paid to a non-Italian resident legal entity or a non-Italian resident individual
which is resident in a country which does not allow for a satisfactory exchange of information. For further details regarding ENEL B.V.'s right
of substitution see Condition 16.
Notes may be issued in bearer or registered form (respectively "Bearer Notes" and "Registered Notes"). The maximum aggregate nominal
amount of all Notes from time to time outstanding under the Programme will not exceed e10,000,000,000 (or its equivalent in other
currencies calculated as described herein), subject to increase as described herein.
The Notes may be issued on a continuing basis to one or more of the Dealers specified under "Summary of the Programme" and any
additional Dealer appointed under the Programme from time to time by the relevant Issuer (each a "Dealer" and together the "Dealers"),
which appointment may be for a specific issue or on an ongoing basis. References in this Offering Circular to the "relevant Dealer" shall,
in the case of an issue of Notes being (or intended to be) subscribed by more than one Dealer, be to all Dealers agreeing to purchase
such Notes.
Application has been made to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for Notes issued under the Programme during the period of 12 months
from the date of this Offering Circular to be listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. Notice of the aggregate nominal amount of Notes,
interest (if any) payable in respect of Notes, the issue price of Notes and any other terms and conditions not contained herein which are
applicable to each Tranche (as defined under "Terms and Conditions of the Notes") of Notes will be set out in a pricing supplement (the
"Pricing Supplement") which, with respect to Notes to be listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, will be delivered to the Luxembourg
Stock Exchange on or before the date of issue of the Notes of such Tranche.
The Programme provides that Notes may be listed on such other or further stock exchange(s) as may be agreed between the relevant
Issuer and the Guarantor (where ENEL is not the relevant Issuer) and the relevant Dealer. The relevant Issuer may also issue unlisted
Notes. Application may also be made to have certain Series of Notes accepted for trading in the Private Offerings, Resales and Trading
through Automated Linkages System ("PORTAL") of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
The Notes issued by ENEL will constitute "obbligazioni" pursuant to Article 2410, and the Articles that follow such Article 2410, of the
Italian Civil Code, which relate to the issuance of "obbligazioni" by corporations in Italy.
The Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or any
state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, any U.S. person (as
defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act) except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration
requirements of the Securities Act. The Notes will be offered and sold in offshore transactions outside the United States in reliance on
Regulation S under the Securities Act and, if so specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement, within the United States to "qualified
institutional buyers" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act), in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act. The Notes in bearer form are subject to U.S. tax law requirements.
The relevant Issuer and the Guarantor (where ENEL is not the relevant Issuer) may agree with any Dealer that Notes may be issued in a
form not contemplated by the Terms and Conditions of the Notes herein, in which event (in the case of Notes intended to be listed on the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange) a supplementary Offering Circular, if appropriate, will be made available which will describe the effect of
the agreement reached in relation to such Notes.

In connection with the issue and distribution of any Tranche of Notes, the Dealer (if any)
disclosed as the stabilising manager in the applicable Pricing Supplement or any person acting
for him may over-allot or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the
Notes of the Series (as defined below) of which such Tranche forms part at a level higher than
that which might otherwise prevail for a limited period. However, there may be no obligation on
the stabilising manager or any agent of his to do this. Such stabilising, if commenced, may be
discontinued at any time and must be brought to an end after a limited period. Such stabilising
may include the purchase of Notes to stabilise their market price, the purchase of Notes to cover
some or all of a short position in the Notes maintained by the stabilising manager and the
imposition of penalty bids. For a description of these activities, see "Subscription and Sale and
Selling and Transfer Restrictions".

to the extent that a statement contained in any such subsequent document which is deemed to be
incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such earlier statement (whether expressly, by
implication or otherwise). Any statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so
modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Offering Circular.
Each Obligor will provide, without charge, to each person to whom a copy of this Offering Circular has

issue of the Notes to be listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAMME
Under the Programme, each Issuer may from time to time issue Notes denominated in any currency,
subject as set out herein. A summary of the terms and conditions of the Programme and the Notes
appears below. The applicable terms of any Notes will be agreed between the relevant Issuer and the
relevant Dealer prior to the issue of the Notes and will be set out in the Terms and Conditions of the
Notes endorsed on, attached to, or incorporated by reference into, the Notes, as modified and
supplemented by the applicable Pricing Supplement attached to, or endorsed on, such Notes, as more
fully described under "Form of the Notes" below.
This Offering Circular and any supplement will only be valid for listing Notes on the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange during the period of 12 months from the date of this Offering Circular in an aggregate nominal
amount which, when added to the aggregate nominal amount then outstanding of all Notes previously
or simultaneously issued under the Programme, does not exceed e10,000,000,000 or its equivalent in
other currencies. For the purpose of calculating the euro equivalent of the aggregate nominal amount
of Notes issued under the Programme from time to time:
(a)
the euro equivalent of Notes denominated in another Specified Currency (as specified in the
applicable Pricing Supplement in relation to the Notes, described under "Form of the Notes") shall
be determined, at the discretion of the relevant Issuer, either as of the date on which agreement
is reached for the issue of Notes or on the preceding day on which commercial banks and foreign
exchange markets are open for business in London, in each case on the basis of the spot rate for
the sale of the euro against the purchase of such Specified Currency in the London foreign
exchange market quoted by any leading international bank selected by the relevant Issuer on the
relevant day of calculation;
(b)
the euro equivalent of Dual Currency Notes, Index Linked Notes and Partly Paid Notes (each as
specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement in relation to the Notes, described under "Form of
the Notes") shall be calculated in the manner specified above by reference to the original nominal
amount on issue of such Notes (in the case of Partly Paid Notes regardless of the subscription
price paid); and
(c)
the euro equivalent of Zero Coupon Notes (as specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement in
relation to the Notes, described under "Form of the Notes") and other Notes issued at a discount
or a premium shall be calculated in the manner specified above by reference to the net proceeds
received by the relevant Issuer for the relevant issue.
