ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT

To the board of Directors and Shareholders of
Espirito Santo Centrais Eletricas S.A. - ESCELSA
Vitoria - ES

1.       We have performed a special review of the Quarterly Information (ITR)
         of Espirito Santo Centrais Eletricas S.A. - ESCELSA and subsidiaries

2.       Our review was performed in accordance with standards established by
         the Brazilian Institute of Independent Auditors - IBRACON, in
         conjunction with the Federal Accounting Council, and consisted
         principally of: (a) inquiries and discussions with the Company's

(Convenience Translation into English from the Original Previously Issued in
Portuguese)


                         SECOND QUARTER 2002 HIGHLIGHTS

Electric energy sales in the first half of 2002 totalized 3,058,198 MWh, 11.5%
lower than the 3,460,819 MWh sold in the same period in 2001. This decrease
demonstrates that even with the end energy rationing in Brazil, consumption
levels are recovering slowly, mainly among residential customers that adopted
new usage habits that effectively reduced consumption

As per the General Agreement for the Electric Energy Sector as well as criteria
established in ANEEL Resolutions 031 and 078 of 01/24/2002 and 02/07/2002,
respectively, ESCELSA recognized revenue of R$ 209,640 thousand related to 2001
and R$ 25,921 thousand related to 2002 - a total of R$ 235,561 thousand - as
extraordinary tariff adjustments (Regulatory Asset). These amounts are subject
to approval by ANEEL, which is expected by August 31, 2002.

Based on newly available information, ESCELSA recalculated losses incurred
during rationing, resulting in a cross-entry to revert operating revenue of
R$33,218 thousand. The regulatory asset position on June 30, 2002 was follows:

Energy sold totalized 3,058,198 MWh during the first half of 2002, representing
a decrease of 11.5% when compared 3,460,819 MWh in the same period last year.

The reduction in sales was a result of the Energy Rationing Plan, implemented on
June 4, 2001, which caused a reduction in sales in all consumer segments,
particularly in the residential segment.

Energy sales per consumer segment was as follows (not reviewed by independent

significantly among the residential and industrial segments, due mainly to the
effects of rationing.
In calculating the breakdown of energy sold, the impacts from the regulatory
asset and short-term sales were not considered.

QUALITY OF SERVICE RENDERED

The main indicators used by the energy sector to measure the quality of service
rendered showed the following performance:

        Average Service Response Time - TMA is an indicator that measures the
        average time between a complaint of interruption in energy and the
        re-establishment.

        For the 12-month  period  ended June 30,  2002,  TMA was 109 (*) minutes
        compared to 108(*)  minutes for the same period in the previous year, an
        increase of 1.0%(*).

        Equivalent Outage Duration per Customer - DEC measures the average
        number of hours that each customer remains without the supply of energy.

        For the 12-month  period ended June 30,  2002,  DEC was 14.99(*)  hours,
        compared to 14.57(*)  hours in the  previous  year,  an  improvement  of
        2.9%(*).

        Equivalent Outage Frequency per Customer - FEC indicates the average
        number of interruptions in energy service per customer.

        For the period ended June 30, 2002, FEC was 11.23(*) compared to
        12.17(*) for the same period the previous year, an improvement of
        7.7%(*).


(*) Not reviewed by independent auditors.

ENERGY LOSSES

Energy losses increased from 9,59% in the twelve-month period ended June 30,2002
to 11,71% in the same period this year. This increasing is due to the energy
rationing, as the reduction in sales was not necessarily followed by a reduction
in energy losses, especially commercial losses. Since the end of the rationing
(March, 2002) losses have been decreasing.


FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

INCOME FROM OPERATIONS

Income from operations in the first half of 2002 totalized R$ 24,900 thousand,
compared of R$ 10,764 thousand in the same period last year and resulted in an
EBITDA of R$ 53,243 thousand, equal to an EBITDA margin of 14.34%. The items
that make up service income showed the following performance:

OPERATING REVENUES

Gross operating revenues in the first half of 2002 totaled R$ 521,267 thousand,
an increase of 6.5% when compared to the same period last year. The revenue from
the retail sector was R$ 480,787 thousand, an increase of 1.7% compared to the
same period in 2001.

The increase in the wholesale revenue in the first half of 2002, compared to the
same period last year was due to the short-term supply sales of excess energy.

The increase in other revenues is due to the new breakdown in revenues as per
the new sector model, as well as to the growth in the utilization of the
distribution system by customers.

NET FINANCIAL INCOME (EXPENSE)

The net financial result in the first half of 2002 was negative R$ 259,087
thousand, while in the same period last year was negative R$ 139,109 thousand.
The difference in the second half is due mainly to the 22.6% devaluation of the
Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar, which caused a significant increase in
financial expenses on U.S. dollar denominated debt.

                    with General Instruction n(Degree) 6.3.2 of the Accounting

                d)  Materials and supplies - materials and supplies to be
                    applied in operations and maintenance are recorded as

                    included in property, plant and equipment, both based on the
                    average acquisition cost.

               e)   Investments - the investments in wholly-owned subsidiaries
                    are stated based on the equity adjustment method. The other
                    investments are stated at cost plus monetary restatement,

                    11/30/1994, at constant rates as per the schedule stipulated
                    in ANEEL Rule 44 of 03/17/1999. In accordance with the
                    General Instructions nos. 35 and 36 of the Accounting
                    Standards for Public Electric Utilities, interest and other

                    party financing, which have been applied in the property,
                    plant and equipment under construction, are recorded within
                    this subgroup as costs. In accordance with specific Public

                    shareholder's own capital applied in financing projects
                    under construction is calculated according to Long-term
                    Interest Rates (TJLP) and is credited directly to capital
                    reserves in Shareholders' Equity.

                g)  Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies
                    subject to indexation - such items are subject to
                    restatement because of exchange and monetary variations for
                    contractual or legal reasons and are updated through the
                    balance sheet date. Foreign currency liabilities are
                    converted into Reais according to the exchange rates
                    informed by the Brazilian Central Bank (US$ 1 = R$2.8444 on
                    June 30, 2002 and US$ 1 = R$ 2.3204 on December 31, 2001).

                h)  Income tax and social contribution - income tax recorded in
                    the results of the period is calculated based on taxable
                    income (adjusted net income) at a rate of 15% plus 10% on
                    taxable income exceeding R$240, according to the current tax
                    law. Social contribution recorded in the results of the
                    period is calculated based on taxable income prior to income
                    tax, at a rate of 8%, plus an additional of 1%, which is
                    applicable through 12/31/03. The deferred income tax and
                    social contribution were recorded as tax credits, based on
                    the tax losses, negative basis of the social contribution
                    and temporary differences, considering the rates of such
                    taxes that will be prevailing on the date of the
                    realization.

                i)  Obligations related to the concession - are obligations that
                    are part of the concession agreement for electric utilities
                    representing, basically, contributions from the Federal
                    Government, donations without conditions set forth as to
                    returns to the contributors, subventions and contributions
                    received from consumers exclusively for the purpose of
                    investment in electric energy distribution. The expiration
                    of these obligations is determined by the Regulatory Agency,
                    and will be withdrawn at the end of the concession period.
                    As from January 1, 2002, this account is being classified as
                    property, plant and equipment.

                j)  Pension plans - the Company is the sponsor of Fundacao
                    Escelsa de Seguridade Social - ESCELSOS, which manages the
                    pension fund for its employees. The costs, contributions and
                    the actuarial obligation associated with pension plans are
                    calculated at the balance sheet date by independent
                    actuaries. As from December 31, 2001, such amounts are
                    calculated and recorded in accordance with Deliberation CVM
                    n(Degree)371. Employee profit sharing is recorded in the
                    statement of income of the corresponding fiscal period.

                k)  Earnings (loss) per share - these amounts are calculated
                    based on the number of shares outstanding at the balance
                    sheet date for the fiscal period.

                l)  Revenue recognition - revenues and expenses for all services
                    are recognized on an accrual basis of accounting, recognized
                    when incurred. Billing for all customers is made on a
                    monthly basis according to the meter reading calendar.
                    Unbilled revenues, corresponding to the period between the
                    date of the last reading and the end of the month, are
                    estimated and recognized as revenue in the month in which
                    the energy was consumed.

                m)  Estimates - financial statement preparation according to
                    corporate law accounting practices requires that the
                    Company's Management make estimates for the recognition of
                    certain transactions that impact assets and liabilities and
                    revenues and expenses of ESCELSA and its subsidiaries, which
                    are reflected in data disclosed in its financial statements.
                    The final figures that are recorded upon the realization of
                    such transactions in subsequent reporting periods may differ
                    from these estimates. Most of these estimates refer to the
                    recognition of impacts from the Emergency Program for
                    Reducing Electric Energy Consumption, the Compensation
                    Account for Cost Variations for Portion A - CVA, Provision
                    for Doubtful Accounts, Provision for Contingencies and
                    Pension and Retirement Plans.

        3.2.    Consolidated Financial Statements

                The consolidated financial statements include the balance sheets
                and the statements of income for the semester and quarter ended
                June 30, 2002 and March 31, 2002 for ESCELSA, and its
                subsidiaries MAGISTRA, TVIX and ESCELSAPAR.

                The main consolidation procedures adopted were as follows:

                a)  elimination of ESCELSA's investments in controlled
                    subsidiaries;
                b)  elimination of account balances between ESCELSA and its
                    subsidiaries included in the consolidation, as well as the
                    accounts between such subsidiaries;
                c)  recognition of the minority shareholders' participation in
                    the balance sheet and statement of income;
                d)  disclosure of the goodwill recorded for the acquisition of
                    ENERSUL by MAGISTRA.

                The profit and the shareholders' equity at ESCELSA are equal to
                those of the consolidated group, as there was no unrealized
                income in the intercompany operations.

Regulatory Asset

According to clauses included in Provisional Measure n(Degree)14, in Resolution
n(Degree)91 from the Energy Crisis Management Chamber - CGE of December 21,
2001, Resolution n(Degree). 31 from the National Electric Energy Agency - ANEEL
of January 24, 2002 and ANEEL Resolution n(Degree) 72 of February 7, 2002, the
Company calculated the amount of the extraordinary tariff recovery to be applied
to all of the concession areas for electric energy distribution, to be
recognized as the basis for re-establishing the financial-economic balance of
the concession contracts, with the recovery of the consumption losses which were
incurred as a result of the Emergency Program for Reducing Electric Energy
Consumption - PRE from June 2001 through February 2002.

The increase in tariffs for final customers approved by ANEEL for ESCELSA and
ENERSUL for extraordinary tariff recovery were as follows:

related to the tariff recovery amounts corresponding to the period up to
12/31/2001 and from January to February 2002, respectively, being both subject
to the Regulatory Agency approval. In order to obtain the right to such
compensation, the Company renounced the right to any judicial or extra judicial
claims related to the facts and rules concerning the Emergency Program for
Reduction of Electrical Energy Consumption and the extraordinary tariff
recovery, as well as entered into agreements signed between the electrical
sector agents, in accordance with the Provisional Measure n(Degree)14 and
Resolutions n(Degree) 91 edited by GCE and n(Degree) 31 edited by ANEEL.

6.      SPECIAL TARIFF SITUATION

        According to Provisional Measure 2,147 of May 15, 2001 and subsequent
        amendments, as well as regulations from the Energy Crisis Management
        Chamber - CGE, ESCELSA has charged a surtax to customers who have
        exceeded their consumption quotas up to February, and granted bonuses in
        cases in which customers have reduced consumption to levels below their
        quotas.

        The financial accounting criteria for these events, defined as per ANEEL
        Rule 299 of July 27, 2001, do not have an impact on the Company's
        results, and on March 31, 2002, the corresponding amounts are classified
        in the current assets as customers and wholesale, as shown below:

7.      Prepaid EXPENSES

        The distribution concession agreements establish, for a part of the
        tariffs charged by the Electric Utilities, amounts related to exogenous
        costs which are attributable to operating expenses, together with a
        variable referred to as Portion "A" of the Tariff Adjustment Formula
        (IRT), demonstrated below:

        o       Pass-through of tariff related to energy purchased from Itaipu
                Binacional;

        o       Pass through of transport costs for electric energy from Itaipu
                Binacional;

        o       Quota for the Fuel Consumption Account - CCC;

        o       Costs for transmission infrastructure usage on the basic grid;

        o       Compensation for usage of water resources;

        o       System Service Charges - ESS;

        o       Energy Purchased as established in the initial contracts;

        o       Quota for the Global Reversion Reserve - RGR;

        o       Electric energy service enforcement fee; and,

        o       Connection charges.

        With the introduction of Provisional Measure n(Degree) 2,227 and
        n(Degree) 14 of 09/04/2001 and 12/21/01, respectively, and ANEEL
        Resolution n(Degree). 90 of 02/18/02, an account was established to
        record the compensation of differences, positive or negative, between
        the amount of each item since the date of the last tariff adjustment and
        its effective date of payment. The balance will be monetarily adjusted
        based on the SELIC rate variation.

        The positive variations are presented in current and long-term assets in
        the account of prepaid expenses. On the other hand, the negative
        variation that corresponds to pass through of transport costs for
        electric energy from Itaipu Binacional and quota for the fuel
        consumption - CCC are presented in the current and long-term liabilities

        Management understands that the provisions recorded are sufficient to
        cover eventual losses from the ongoing litigation. Based on the opinion
        of the Company's legal counsel, all litigation for which the probability
        of a favorable outcome was estimated as remote for the Company was
        provided for. Furthermore, there are labor, civil and fiscal cases
        pending in the total amount of R$28,827 , for which the probability of a
        favorable outcome was estimated as likely and no provisions were
        recorded on the financial statements.

        COFINS:

        Provided for based on the amounts deposited from May 1996 to July 1999,
        based on a preliminary injunction obtained in May 1996 by way of a tax
        immunity claim.

        With the decision by the Supreme Court - STF in July 1999, upholding the
        constitutionality of COFINS tax on electric energy transactions, the
        Company converted the deposited amounts, normalizing the taxes payments
        and reclassified the provision to the current asset. The Company awaits
        the final judicial decision ruling for a reversion of the deposits and
        subsequent payment of the amounts provided for.

        Labor contingencies:

        Refer to several labor claims against the Company, which claim payment
        of overtime, hazards, reintegration, among other items.

        Civil contingencies

        The civil contingencies include suits in which the Company is a
        defendant, being in most of cases related to moral and material damages
        claims, among other challenging amounts paid by customers for tariff
        increases based on DNAEE regulations 38 and 45 of January 27, 1986 and
        March 4, 1986, respectively, during the Cruzado Plan.

        Fiscal contingencies

        The Company is also a party of a administrative process with the Federal
        Reserve, pending final decision, for compensation of amounts overpaid
        related to FINSOCIAL, due to the unconstitutionality of the Decrees -
        Law n(Degree)s. 2,445 and 2,499.

        There is also a preliminary decision in lower court which guarantees
        restitution and/or compensation of amounts overpaid related to fines on
        tax and contributions made spontaneously and untimely. The fines
        exemption are being requested based on article 138 of the National Tax
        Code - CTN. Based on its legal counsel, the Company compensated the
        amounts related to past-due contributions (PIS, COFINS, IRPJ and CSLL),
        as per Article 66 of Law no. 8,383/91. Conservatively, the Company
        maintained provisions for amounts corresponding to the above mentioned
        taxes and contributions.


15.     CAPITAL STOCK AND RESERVES

        In accordance with its by-laws, the Company is authorized to operate
        with up to R$1,000,000 in capital of which R$153,947 are subscribed and
        fully paid in. Capital stock as of June 30, 2002, is represented by

        c)  As a sponsor, the Company's monthly contributions are made at the
            same proportion of the participants of ESCELSOS Foundation,
            corresponding to the amount established in each plan, limited to 7%
            of the total payroll. For the first half of 2002, ESCELSA
            contributed R$1,222 (R$1,209 in the first half of 2001).

        d)  Based on the Article 84 of CVM Deliberation n.(Degree)371/2000, at
            December/2001 the Company calculated the present value of the
            actuarial obligations related with the unvested benefit,. As a
            result, the balances as of June 30, 2002 can be shown as follows:

        Obligations related to post-retirement benefits.
                  Current liabilities                    2,420
                  Long term liabilities                 28,032


        e)  The actuarial calculations showed that the fair value of the net
            assets of the pension plan exceeds the present value of the vested
            and unvested actuarial obligations. However, company's management
            adopted a conservative position and decided do not record this
            surplus as a deduction of the unvested actuarial obligations.

19.     FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

        As per CVM Instruction n(Degree) 235 of March 23, 1995, established a
        mechanism for the disclosure of the market value of financial
        instruments by way of "notes to the financial statements," regardless
        their recognition or not in the financial statements.

        The Company's business entails the distribution and sale of electric
        energy for customers within its concession area - the State of Espirito
        Santo - and therefore significant financial instruments are related to
        the following transactions:

        o   Balances of long-term accounts receivable and accounts payable are
            related to the extraordinary tariff recovery and therefore are not
            subject to adjustments to market value;

        o   Investments in short term mutual funds and/or fixed income
            investments are recorded at approximate market value as they are
            recorded with accrued interest on a pro-rata basis;

        o   Equity stakes in other companies are in most cases through shares
            that are not publicly traded;

        o   Loans due by the Company are mainly long-term and, in the most of
            cases, are, from specific funding sources.

        19.1    Exchange rate and interest rate risks

                The book value of the main financial instruments held by
                ESCELSA are:

                A portion of the loans and financing in local currency is

                As the market interest rate (or opportunity cost of capital) is
                established by these governmental entities, taking into
                consideration the risk premium related with the electrical
                sector's activities and that in the absence of other financing
                sources or other market options and/or methodology to estimate
                the market value of such options, in light of the Company's
                business and specific circumstances of the sector, the market
                value for this portion comprised of domestic loans shall
                correspond to their book value, as shall other financial assets
                and liabilities.

                As mentioned in Note 14, foreign currency financing was obtained
                (in U.S. dollars), being the indebtedness and earnings
                significantly impacted by the risk of exchange rate variation of
                foreign currency. Such risk may cause the Company to incur
                losses due to unexpected foreign exchange fluctuations, which
                may increase liabilities denominated in foreign currency.

                Net exposure to the exchange variation of foreign currency risk
                as of June 30, 2002 is as follows:

                              BOOK VALUE                     FAIR VALUE

                      ==========     ==========       ==========     ==========

                The method used to determine the fair value of the Senior Notes
                obligation was their average market price as per the security's
                trading activity at the end of each fiscal period (source:
                Report edited in the USA by Morgan Stanley Team Witter, showing
                the market price of transactions negotiated in New York.) and,
                for U.S. dollar assets, the market price of the contracts at the
                end of the fiscal period was utilized, which is equal to the
                book value.

                Additionally, the Company hedged part of its currency
                fluctuations exposure by using swap contracts. The operations'
                parameters and amounts are described above:

                On a consolidated basis, loans and obligations held by companies
                within the ESCELSA Group were made at rates and terms generally
                practiced in the domestic and international markets to fund
                investments in the electric energy sector in its concession
                areas as a public utility.

                The subsidiaries MAGISTRA and ENERSUL maintain liabilities in
                foreign currency (US$). To reduce foreign exchange related risk,
                swap instruments are being used to hedge a portion of these
                obligations, as mentioned in Note 13. Indexes used in these
                instruments are the IGP-M plus interest rates of 11.70% to
                12.01% per annum and CDI plus 0.95%- 2.33% per annum.

                Considering the Real devaluation during the period, the hedging
                instruments generated a gain of R$9,025, recorded monetary
                variation in the financial statements, as follows:

                                                   AMOUNT

                Loans and Financing         93,645           84,520      9,025

                For the remaining contracts, given the specific nature of these
                transactions and the inability to determine the market value for
                this type of financial instrument, Companies' management, taking
                into consideration the risk to the company, the strategy and
                debt management practices adopted, estimates that the market
                values of the instruments are equal or approximates to their
                book value.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


                As to the credit risk, there is a possibility that the Company
                will incur losses resulting from its customers default. To
                mitigate against this risk, the Company has the right to
                interrupt the supply of electric energy in the event that a
                customer fails in paying bills within the time-periods defined
                by legislation and specific regulations. A provision for
                doubtful accounts is established in an amount deemed sufficient
                by management to cover potential accounts receivable risks.
