Consolidated report on payments to public administration in 2020

ENEA Group operations

There are seven leading entities within ENEA Group which manage the individual areas of operations, i.e.:

• ENEA S.A. (parent entity in the ENEA Group) electricity and gas trading
• ENEA Operator Sp. z o.o. electricity distribution
• ENEA Wytwarzanie Sp. z o.o., ENEA Elektrownia Połaniec S.A. and ENEA Nowa Energia Sp. z o.o. generation and sale of electricity and heat
• ENEA Trading Sp. z o.o. wholesale electricity trading
• LW Bogdanka S.A. (LW Bogdanka) coal production

The other entities within ENEA Group render ancillary activities in relation to the aforesaid companies.

In ENEA Group, the mining operations are performed by its subsidiary, LW Bogdanka. The mining activities are performed by LW Bogdanka based on its own mining licences issued by the Minister of the Climate and Environment (formerly, Minister of the Climate).

Due to the fact that within LW Bogdanka Group the mining operations are performed exclusively by LW Bogdanka, payments to the public administration made by this entity correspond to total payments made for this purpose within LW Bogdanka Group, and also payments made for this purpose within ENEA Group.

Basis of preparation

This consolidated report on payments to public administration has been prepared in accordance with § 61 of Regulation of the Finance Minister of 29 March 2018 n current and periodic information provided by issuers of securities and on conditions under which information required by legal regulations of a third country may be recognised as equivalent, in connection with Chapter 6a, Articles 63e-63j of the Accounting Act ("the Act").

ENEA Group companies do not pursue any business activity within the primary forest logging on the area of primary forests.

Due to the fact that ENEA S.A. is not an entity which operates in the mining sector and is not an entity engaged in primary forest logging, the Issuer does not prepare any non-consolidated report on payments to public administration.
