REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Trustees and Participants of the Employee Savings Plan of
Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated Employee Savings Plan (the
"Plan") as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related statement of changes
in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2003. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31,
2003 and 2002, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year
ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2003 AND 2002 AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
General
The following description of the Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated
(Company) Employee Savings Plan (Plan) is provided for general information
purposes only. Participants (any person who has an interest in the Trust Fund)
should refer to the Plan Document for more complete information.
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all bargaining
unit employees of the Company and its Participating Affiliates (each, an
Employer). The Company's Employee Benefits Committee is the Named Fiduciary of
the Plan and controls and manages its operation and administration. Until
September 30, 2003, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas served as the Trustee
of the Plan. The Bank of New York became the Trustee of the Plan effective
October 1, 2003 (each a Trustee and, collectively, the Trustees). Hewitt
Associates is the record keeper of the Plan. The Plan is subject to the
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
(ERISA).
The majority of the Plan's investment assets are held in a trust account by the
Trustee and consist of an undivided interest in an investment account of the
Master Employee Benefit Trust (the Master Trust), a master trust established by
the Company and administered by the Trustee.
During 2002, through a subsidiary, the Company acquired Wisvest Connecticut LLC.
As a result of this transaction, the savings plan of the acquired company was
merged with and into the Plan and the Public Service Enterprise Group
Incorporated Thrift and Deferred Tax Saving Plan (Thrift Plan), effective
December 31, 2002, and Participant account balances of $7,433,274 were
transferred into the Plan as of December 31, 2002. The Plan was amended and
restated effective December 31, 2002 to reflect the Wisvest acquisition and the
immediate vesting of all Employer Contributions.
Contributions
Generally, Participants may contribute from 1% to 7% of their annual
compensation each year, as defined in the Plan, subject to certain Internal
Revenue Code (IRC) limitations (Basic Deposits). The Participant's Employer
contributes 50% of this Basic Deposit amount as its matching contribution to the
Plan (Employer Contributions). A Participant's Employer begins matching
contributions when that Participant has completed one Year of Service, as
defined by the Plan, with his/her Employer. Participants may also contribute
amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or
defined contribution plans.
Prior to February 1, 2002, Employer Contributions in excess of 5% and up to 7%
of compensation were made in shares of the Company's Common Stock and were not
available for transfer to any other investment fund or withdrawal from the Plan
prior to the Participant's termination of employment. Effective March 1, 2002,
Employer Contributions are made in cash and invested according to the
Participant's then current investment election and all shares of Company Stock
held in a Participant's account are eligible for transfer to any other
investment fund, except the Employee Stock Ownership Plan Fund (ESOP Fund).
6
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
In addition, a Participant may elect to make supplemental deposits to the Plan
in increments of 1% of compensation up to an additional 43% of compensation
(Supplemental Deposits), subject to certain IRC limitations, without any
corresponding matching Employer Contribution. Participants may designate such
Basic and/or Supplemental Deposits as post-income tax contributions (Nondeferred
Deposits) or pre-income tax contributions (Deferred Deposits).
Each Participant may, within any Plan Year, make one or more additional lump sum
deposits on a nondeferred basis in minimum amounts of $250 and in such total
amounts which, when aggregated with such Participant's Basic Deposits and
Supplemental Deposits, do not exceed 50% of his or her compensation for that
Plan Year and subject to the limitations of the IRC.
Participant Accounts
Individual accounts are maintained for each Plan Participant. Each Participant's
account is credited with the Participant's contributions and allocations of (a)
the Employer's contributions and (b) Plan earnings, and charged with an
allocation of administrative expenses. Allocations are based on Participant
earnings or account balances, as defined. The benefit to which a Participant or
beneficiary is entitled upon death, disability or retirement, as applicable, is
the benefit that can be provided from the Participant's vested account.
ESOP Fund Participants receive quarterly payments directly from the Trustees
equal to the dividends paid to the Trustees on the shares of the Company's
Common Stock held for their account in the ESOP Fund.
Participants who have elected to participate in the Company's Common Stock Fund
may elect to have the dividends on the shares of the Common Stock paid directly
to the Participant (or beneficiary) in cash or paid to the Participant's
account, which will then be reinvested in the Company's Common Stock Fund. These
provisions are not applicable with respect to Company Common Stock held in a
Participant's Frozen ESOP Account.
Participant Loans
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts up to a maximum of $50,000
reduced by the highest outstanding loan balance during the past twelve months,
whichever is less. The loans are secured by the balance in the Participant's
account and bear interest at rates commensurate with local prevailing rates.
Principal and interest is paid ratably through payroll deductions. During 2003,
the rate of interest on loans granted to Participants was 4.25% until June 30,
2003 and 4.00% effective July 1, 2003. During 2002, the rate of interest on
loans granted to Participants was 4.75%.
No amounts may be loaned directly from any ESOP Fund, from any portion of a
Participant's Savings Account attributable to transfers from the Cash Balance
Plan for Represented Employees of Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated
(Cash Balance Plan) or from assets held in the Schwab Personal Choice Retirement
Account (PCRA) Fund. No Participant may have more than two loans outstanding at
any time.
Payment of Benefits
On termination of service due to retirement, a Participant may elect to receive
an amount equal to the value of the Participant's vested interest in his or her
account in either a lump-sum amount, or in quarterly or annual installments over
a ten-year period. If a Participant's account balance is less than $5,000 at the
time of termination, the Participant will receive an automatic lump-sum payment
for the entire account balance. For termination due to death, the Participant's
beneficiary will receive lump-sum distribution equal to the value of the
Participant's vested interest in his or her account.
7
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Forfeitures
Any nonvested portion of the Participant's account, determined as of the date of
severance from employment, shall be forfeited and shall be applied thereafter to
reduce a subsequent contribution or contributions of the Employer as provided in
the Plan. If such former Participant is rehired and remains employed by an
Employer at the end of the fifth Plan Year after the Plan Year in which such
severance occurred, then such nonvested portion of the Participant's Account
shall be reinstated by the Employer and the Participant's right thereto shall be
determined as if the Participant had not terminated employment, provided that
the Participant repays to the Plan the amount of any distribution paid to him or
her on account of the severance from employment. For the years ended December
31, 2003 and 2002, forfeitures amounted to $15,190 and $121,372, respectively.
Vesting
Except for amounts transferred from the Cash Balance Plan into the Plan,
Employer Contributions to a Participant's Savings Account are fully vested.
Amounts transferred from the Cash Balance Plan follow the Cash Balance Plan
vesting regulations and vest upon the earliest of a Participant's completion of
five years of service with an Employer, attainment of age 65 or approval for
benefits under a Company long-term disability plan. All amounts credited to a
Participant's ESOP Fund are fully vested.
Penalties Upon Withdrawal
If a Participant withdraws vested Employer Contributions and/or Deposits before
they have been in the Plan for twenty-four months, such Participant will lose
the matching Employer Contributions on Deposits made during the subsequent three
months. Distributions to Participants electing to withdraw Nondeferred Deposits
and Employer Contributions are made as soon as practicable after such elections
are received by the Plan's record keeper. Nondeferred Deposits may be withdrawn
at any time, but certain penalties may apply. Deferred Deposits may not be
withdrawn during employment prior to age 59-1/2 except for reasons of
extraordinary financial hardship and to the extent permitted by the IRC
(hardship withdrawals). Distributions to Participants of approved hardship
withdrawals are made as soon as practicable after such approval.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Plan have been prepared on an accrual basis in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (GAAP).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires Plan
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
net assets available for benefits and changes therein. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
8
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan utilizes various investment options. The mutual funds invest in various
securities including U.S. Government securities, corporate debt instruments and
corporate stocks. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various
risks, such as interest rate, credit and overall market volatility. Due to the
level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably
possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the
near term and that such changes could materially affect Participants' account
balances and the amounts reported in the financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications of amounts reported in the prior period have been made
to conform with the current year presentation.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition (Master Trust Fund)
The investments in the Master Trust are stated at fair value except for its
benefit-responsive investment contracts within the Stable Value Fund, which are
recorded at contract value, which approximates fair value. The Plan's
investments in the guaranteed annuity contracts of the Stable Value Fund are
with various insurance companies and other financial institutions, and are
recorded at contract value, which approximates fair value, and are calculated as
cost plus accumulated interest less withdrawals. Quoted market prices are used
to value all other investments. Shares of mutual funds are valued at the net
asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end. Purchases and sales of
securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Short-Term Investments are stated
at cost, which approximates fair market value. Dividend income is recorded on
the ex-dividend date. The loans to Participants are valued at outstanding
principal balance plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value.
Investment gains and losses from securities transactions are computed using an
adjusted cost basis as prescribed by the Department of Labor's (DOL) Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure.
Payment of Benefits
Benefit payments to Participants are recorded upon distribution. Amounts
allocated to accounts of persons who have elected to withdraw from the plan but
have not yet been paid were $149,334 and $175,778 as of December 31, 2003 and
2002, respectively.
Administrative Expenses of Plan
All expenses incurred for the administration of the Plan, including taxes and
brokerage costs, are deducted from the Master Trust Fund.
Transfers of the ESOP Fund to Savings Account
Participants are permitted to transfer all, but not less than all, of the shares
of the Company's Common Stock from their ESOP Fund to their Savings Accounts. To
affect such transfers, the Trustee will sell the shares of the Company's Common
Stock held in the ESOP Fund and invest the proceeds in the Savings Account
Investment Funds designated by the Participant. The cash value of each share of
the Company's Common Stock transferred will be equal to the price per share of
the Company's Common Stock actually received by the Trustee. Any such transfer
is treated as a rollover contribution.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
3. INVESTMENT OF THE PLAN AND THRIFT PLAN IN THE MASTER TRUST
Certain of the Plan's investment assets are held in a trust account by the
Trustee and consist of an undivided interest in an investment account of the
Master Trust. Use of the Master Trust permits the commingling of trust assets
with the assets of the Thrift Plan for investment and administrative purposes.
Although assets of both plans are commingled in the Master Trust, the Trustee
maintains supporting records for the purpose of allocating the net gain or loss
of the investment account to the respective participating plans. The net
investment income of the investment assets is allocated by the Trustee to each
participating plan based on the relationship of the interest of each plan to the
total of the interests of the participating plans. As of December 31, 2003 and
2002, the Plan's interests in such assets of the Master Trust were approximately
40% and 39%, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONCLUDED)
5. FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS
The Internal Review Service has determined and informed the Company by letter
dated May 25, 2004 that the Plan and related trust are designed in accordance
with the applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC"). The Plan has
been amended since the issuance of the determination letter; however, the Plan
Administrator and the Plan's tax counsel believe that the Plan is designed and
is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of
the IRC.
6. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Certain Plan investments are in the Company's Common Stock. As the Company is
the Plan Sponsor, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions.
Certain administrative functions are performed by the officers and employees of
the Company (who may also be Participants in the Plan) at no cost to the Plan.
These transactions are not deemed prohibited party-in-interest transactions,
because they are covered by statutory or administrative exemptions from ERISA's
rules on prohibited transactions.
As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Master Trust held 9,762,984 and 10,924,899
shares, respectively, of the Common Stock of Public Service Enterprise Group
Incorporated, the sponsoring employer stock, in Mutual Funds, with a market
value per unit of $15.52 and $11.48, respectively.
As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Master Trust held 291,315 and 308,532
shares, respectively, of the Common Stock of Public Service Enterprise Group
Incorporated, the sponsoring employer stock, in the ESOP Fund, with a market
value per share of $43.80 and $32.10, respectively.
For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Master Trust recorded dividend income
of approximately $9 million from the Common Stock of Public Service Enterprise
Group Incorporated.
7. PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intention to do so, the Company has the right
under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the
Plan subject to the provisions set forth in ERISA. In the event that the Plan is
terminated, all Participants would become 100 percent vested in their account.
