A significantdecrease in EBITDA was recorded in the System Power Plants Segment,driven by the lower margin on generation and the margin on trading andthe Balancing Market, partially offset by revenue earned on the CapacityMarket.

In the Distribution Area, the higher EBITDA was driven by larger marginson licensed activities coupled with greater operating expenses and alower result on other operating activities.

In the Trading area, the decline in EBITDA is mainly due to the changein provisions related to onerous contracts; this decline was partiallyoffset by higher margins realized on the retail market.
