Rome, September 21st, 2011 – Standard & Poor's today affirmed its long-term credit rating of "A-" and short-term credit rating of "A-2" for Enel S.p.A. ("Enel" or the "Company"). The outlook was confirmed as negative.

Besides, Standard & Poor's changed its stand-alone credit profile for the Company from "bbb+" to "a-", anticipating that Enel’s and Group’s financial risk profile will continue to improve in 2011 and over the medium term, despite the current challenging operating environment.
 
The revision of Enel’s stand-alone credit profile mainly reflects a combination of the solid operating performance of the Enel Group, supported by a large share of stable earnings from regulated activities, continuous management focus on operating efficiency and cost reduction, as well as the management commitment to preserve cash and reduce debt.
 
Standard & Poor's states furthermore that Enel’s rating no longer benefits from a onenotch uplift following its assessment of a “moderate” likelihood of extraordinary support from the Republic of Italy, which owns about 31% of the Company’s share capital, should it be needed.
