1.1. Operating summary

In H1 2019, ENEA Group generated an EBITDA result of PLN 1,666 million (up by PLN 362 million y/y). The highest EBITDA, PLN 730 million, was posted in the Generation area (up by PLN 293 million). The result of the area was positively influenced mainly by the generation increase in ENEA Wytwarzanie and the revenues from the sale of electricity and property rights, despite the negative trend in fuel costs and CO2 emission allowances. The Mining area recorded an EBITDA result of PLN 434 million, which means an increase of PLN 161 million y/y. The higher result of the area is due to a higher production and sales level compared to H1 2018 and a higher coal sales price,as well as continuous work on improving the mine's operating efficiency, especially in the area of fixed costs. In the Distribution area, EBITDA was lower by PLN 65 million y/y, reaching PLN 515 million in H1 2019. High average electricity prices contributed to arise in the costs of energy purchases for own needs and for covering the energy balance difference. In addition, the result on other operating activities decreased in this area, mainly due to the change in the balance of provisions for grid assets and the effect of higher revenues from the insurer in the corresponding period of the previous year. The Trading area recorded an EBITDA result of PLN 35 million (up by PLN 6 million y/y). The retail trade was characterised by an increase in revenues from the sale of electricity to end customers, including the estimated revenues from the price difference amount. However, the rate of growth did not offset the growing costs of energy purchase and environmental obligations, mainly due to the purchase of property rights. Wholesale trade, on the other hand, remains under the pressure of rising prices of CO2 emission allowances, which affects the valuation of contracts and hedging instruments.

  • In H1 2019, ENEA Group spent PLN 1,049 million on CAPEX investments.
  • The production and sales of commercial coal stood at approx. 4.8 million tonnes in H1 2019.
  • The Group generated 12.7 TWh of electricity.
  • Sale of heat totalled 3,640 TJ.
  • Sale of distribution services to end users reached approx. 10 TWh.
  • The volume of electricity and gas fuel sold to retail customers amounted to 10.2 TWh.
  • Growth in revenues from the sale of electricity
  • Growth in coal sales revenues
  • Growth in gas sales revenues
  • Decrease in revenues from sales of heat energy
  • Growth in electricity and gas purchase costs
  • Growth in costs of materials and raw materials consumption

2.3.4. Trading

Sales of electricity and gaseous fuel to retail customers carried out by ENEA S.A.

In H1 2019, the total volume of sales decreased by 440 GWh, or by approx. 4%, as compared to H1 2018. A decrease in electricity sales was recorded in the business customers segment (of 461 GWh, i.e. more than 5%), which was caused by a change in the portfolio of strategic customers – no sales in 2019 to one of the largest customers. Meanwhile, in the households segment the volume of electricity sales increased (by 21 GWh, i.e. by approx. 1%). The volume of gas fuel sales increased slightly compared to the corresponding quarter of the previous year (by 23 GWh, i.e. by approx. 5%).

Revenues from the sale of electricity in H1 2019 take into account the Company's adjustment to the provisions of the Act of 28 December 2018 on amending the Act on Excise Duty and certain other acts, with respect to the application of appropriate prices and rates for the Electricity Tariff for G Tariff customers (households) approved by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office (i.e. at the level of prices as of 31 December 2018), as well as other price lists (i.e. Electricity Tariffs for A, B, C and R Tariff customers and product price lists for G Tariff customers at the level as of 30 June 2018). Moreover, the Company adjusted prices due to a change in the excise tax rate. Revenues include the adjustment of sales revenues recognized in accordance with IFRS 15 on account of price reductions for customers (other than customers in regulated tariff G) in the amount of PLN 374,615 thousand, which was recognized as at 30 June 2019 in the Statement of financial position.

In H1 2019, total sales revenues increased by PLN 83 million, i.e. by approx. 4% when compared to the corresponding period of 2018. The growth was posted in the revenues from both electricity and gas fuel sales, mainly in the segment of business customers.

2.5.3. Agreements concluded

2.5.3.1. Agreements of significance to ENEA Group's operations

In H1 2019, the companies of ENEA Group did not conclude any significant agreements; however, in the reporting period an Annex to the Multiannual Contract for the sale of sludge between ENEA Wytwarzanie and JSW S.A. was executed. Under the Annex, all the sludge deliveries contracted for ENEA Wytwarzanie for 2019 were transferred for execution to ENEA Elektrownia Połaniec.

Moreover, during the reporting period an agreement was concluded with PKP CARGO S.A. for the transport of 5.9 million tonnes of energy coal from LW "Bogdanka" S.A. to ENEA Wytwarzanie Sp. z o.o.

2.5.3.2. Financing sources of the investment programme

ENEA S.A. finances the investment programme using financial surpluses from its business activities and external debt. ENEA Group pursues the investment financing model, in which ENEA S.A. acquires external sources of financing and distributes them to its subsidiaries. In further activities, ENEA S.A. will focus on ensuring appropriate diversification of external sources of financing for the investments planned in ENEA Group's Strategy in order to optimize the amount of costs and debt repayment dates. On 26 June 2019, ENEA S.A. issued five-year ENEA0624 series bonds with a value of PLN 1 billion under the domestic bond programme up to the maximum amount of PLN 5 billion. The purpose of the issue is to refinance the debt resulting from the ENEA0220 series bonds issued by the Issuer. As at 30 June 2019, the nominal debt in respect of bonds issued and loans taken out by ENEA S.A. totalled PLN 9,122 million.

2.5.3.3. Suretyships and guarantees granted

In H1 2019, the companies of ENEA Group did not grant any new suretyships or guarantees of significant value. As at 30 June 2019, the value of corporate suretyships and guarantees granted by ENEA S.A. for hedging the liabilities of ENEA Group companies totalled PLN 109.9 million, whereas the total value of bank guarantees issued on request of ENEA S.A. and being the security of the liabilities of ENEA Group companies amounted to PLN 472.9 million.

2.5.3.4. Interest rate hedging transactions

Under the Interest Rate Risk Management Policy, in H1 2019 ENEA S.A. concluded an Interest Rate Swap transaction for exposures of PLN 489 million.

2.5.3.5. Bond issue programmes of subsidiaries

ENEA Group has adopted a model of financing investments implemented by subsidiaries of ENEA S.A. through intra-group financing. ENEA S.A. raises long-term financing on the financial market by taking out loans or issuing bonds, which it then distributes within the Group. At present, ENEA S.A. in the areas of Generation and Distribution has in place intra-group bond issue programmes with a total value of PLN 7,861 million. These programs are fully utilised and partially redeemed in instalments. As at 30 June 2019, the total nominal exposure due to bonds acquired by ENEA S.A. under the programmes referred to above totalled PLN 6,885 million. In the previous years, ENEA S.A. also concluded inter-group bond issue programme agreements with its subsidiaries, which are intended to finance investments in the RES and Heat segments. The programmes have been fully utilised and are being redeemed in instalments. As at 30 June 2019, the value of the bonds to be redeemed under these programmes totalled PLN 32 million.

2.5.3.6. Loans and borrowings taken out by ENEA Group companies from external sources

As at 30 June 2019, the nominal value of external debt on account of loans and borrowings taken out by ENEA Group companies (excluding ENEA S.A.) totalled PLN 84.8 million. In H1 2019, ENEA Group companies did not terminate any loan and borrowing agreements.

2.5.3.7. Loans granted by ENEA S.A.

In Q1 2019, ENEA S.A. did not conclude any loan agreements with ENEA Group companies and other companies in which it holds an interest. The nominal value of debt as at 30 June 2019 was PLN 182 million.

2.5.3.8. Related-party transactions

In H1 2019, ENEA S.A. and its subsidiaries did not conclude any related-party transactions on non-market conditions. Information on related-party transactions concluded by ENEA S.A. or its subsidiary is included in Note 25 to the condensed interim financial statements of ENEA Group for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2019.

2.6. Market and regulatory environment

Market prices in H1 2019 – global overview

In H1 2019, the international coal market mostly experienced downward trends. Demand-supply imbalances with an increase in renewable energy generation and low gas prices were the main factors contributing to the fall in global coal prices.

In the Atlantic region, the most significant reasons behind the decreases in the prices of thermal coal include a surge in CO2 emission allowance prices, high thermal coal inventories in coal terminals and seaports, relatively low gas prices and increases in electricity production from RES, resulting in low trading volumes, mainly on the spot market. The pressure on demand and prices in ARA ports was exerted by colossal imports of coal from Russia, offered at competitive prices at northern ports. Decreases in coal prices in Europe indicate a marked intensification of the decarbonisation process, whereby the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions is to take place by replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy sources in the energy mixes of European countries. In H1 2019, European coal prices, which continued experiencing a downward trend, did not exceed the critical quotation threshold of 50 USD/t and oscillated in the range of min. 57 USD/t – max. 88 USD/t. As at 28 June 2019, the cost of 1 tonne of coal in European CIF ARA ports totalled USD 58.30 [-39% y/y; -9% M/M].

In the Asia-Pacific region, price falls were a consequence of stricter customs procedures in Chinese ports for imports of Australian thermal coal, which put pressure on coal prices indexed at the Newcastle hub. The reduced demand in the Atlantic region forced Colombian exporters, the traditional suppliers of raw materials to the European market, to channel their supplies to Asia-Pacific. Despite the increased demand from India due to its rapid economic growth, it was not possible to compensate for the fall in demand on the Chinese side in such a way as to maintain the already quite low price levels in this part of the international market. In H1 2019, the average spot price of South African coal totalled USD 78.78/t [-19% y/y], and prices ranged from min. 57.95 USD/t to max. 92.90 USD/t.

Market prices in H1 2019 – Polish market

In H1 2019, coal prices on the Polish market continued experiencing a relatively weak upward trend. The currently recorded surplus of the raw material at ca. 6 million tonnes and growing mine heaps result from the record-high imports of thermal coal at the level of 16.2 million tonnes in 2018. The lack of significant correlations between global and domestic coal prices results mainly from the methodology of shaping domestic coal prices based on long-term contracts and model price formulas. In H1 2019, the Polish Steam Coal Market Index (PSCMI1) averaged 11.93 PLN/GJ [+12.02% y/y; +6.52% H/H], which is approximately 69 USD/t. The forecast for PSCMI1 in 2019 assumes that prices of thermal coal will remain within the range of 11-12 PLN/GJ.

Wholesale electricity prices

The average price on the SPOT market in H1 2019 was higher by 15.8% as compared to the same period of 2018. In all analysed months (except for March), prices were significantly higher than in the corresponding period in 2018. The following factors had an impact on the price level:

  • high prices of CO2 emission allowances for the whole analysed period (pro-growth factor),
  • with the exception of March, higher than planned level of capacity losses in the National Power System (NPS) (pro-growth factor),
  • high wind generation (pro-decrease factor),
  • the average demand for power in the NPS at the same level compared to the same period of 2018 (price growth limitation factors).

Transaction prices and volumes – BASE Y-20

On the forward market, the price of BASE Y-20 product dropped from 279.00 PLN/MWh at the beginning of January to 273.64 PLN/MWh at the end of June 2019. Nevertheless, the average price in Q2 2019 was higher than the average price in Q1 2019.

trade volume average weighted price

Price fluctuations were influenced by both changes in the price levels of CO2 emission allowances. Despite the introduction of 100% "exchange obligation" on TGE forward market, there was no significant increase in liquidity. The total trading volume on the BASE Y-20 product in H1 2019 was 4.1% higher than on the BASE Y-19 product in the corresponding period. Similar to BASE Y-20, prices of PEAK Y-20 also changed. The market valuation of this product was 357.25 PLN/MWh at the beginning of January and 339.80 PLN/MWh at the end of June 2019.

In H1 2019, transactions were also concluded for BASE Y-21; however, due to the remote delivery horizon, the trade volume was much lower than in the case of BASE Y-20.

Obligations involved in obtaining energy certificates

Pursuant to the effective regulations, energy companies selling electricity to end users in 2019 are obliged to obtain and redeem the following types of certificates of origin (fulfilment of the obligation until the end of June 2020):

  • for energy generated from renewable sources, the so-called "green" certificates an obligation at the level of 18.5% of sales to end users,
  • for energy generated from agricultural biogas an obligation of 0.50% of sales to end users,
  • for energy efficiency certificates, the so-called "white" an obligation at the level of 1.5%.

Limits and market prices of CO2 emission allowances

As of the beginning of 2018, the package of MiFID II regulations entered into force, aimed at the strengthening of the financial instrument markets and the protection of capital market participants in Europe. Under the distribution of free allowances for 2019, EU Member States issued 613.70 million out of 717.94 million EUAs (approx. 85.5% of all EUAs). The total number of CO2 emission allowances in trading in 2018 was 1.6529 billion EUAs. This means that the volume to be sold on auctions from September 2019 to August 2020 will be reduced to 397.178 million EUAs.

Prices of CO2 emission allowances are at the highest level since 2011, and most long-term price forecasts anticipate further increases. The identified cause of this situation is the launch, in 2019, of the MSR (Market Stability Reserve), whose task is to limit oversupply of allowances on the market by transferring them to a reserve. The impact of speculative actions on the EUA prices in the market is also being discussed more and more often. In recent months, the prices of CO2 emission allowances have also been affected by investors' uncertainty about the still unresolved issue of Brexit. Theresa May's resignation from the offices of the Leader of the Conservative Party and UK Prime Minister has increased the risk of no-deal Brexit.

6. Other information significant for the assessment of the Issuer's situation

6.1. Regulatory environment

The activities of ENEA S.A. are carried out in an environment subject to specific legal regulations both at the domestic level as well as at the level of the European Union. Since legal regulations in the energy sector are often a derivative of political decisions, there is always a risk of frequent changes in this scope, which cannot be foreseen by the Company and which can result in the lack of consistency and uniformity of provisions based on which ENEA S.A. conducts its activities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the activities of the Group are regulated by the current shape of the national legal system defining the framework for business activity in Poland, including in particular in the scope of the tax system, protection of competition and consumers, employee rights, or environment protection. It cannot be excluded that changes in these areas, both in specific legal acts as well as individual interpretations relating to significant areas of activity of the Group, can lead to possible liabilities of the Group's companies.

6.1.1. Impact of the Act amending the Excise Duty Act and certain other acts

On 28 December 2018, the Act on amendment of the act on excise duty and certain other acts ("Act") was adopted.

This regulation introduced, inter alia, the following:

  • a reduction in the excise duty rate for electricity sold to final customers from 20 PLN/MWh to 5 PLN/MWh,
  • directions for 2019 prices and fee rates for electricity for final customers to be applied by sellers to remain at the level of 2018 prices,
  • the opportunity for sellers to seek an amount to cover the difference in revenue for trade of electricity for final customers from the Settlement Manager specified in the Act ("Price difference amount" and "Financial compensation").

The Act was amended later in the year and the key change (published on 28 June 2019) concerned the narrowing in H2 2019 of the group of end customers to customers from the G tariff group and micro-entrepreneurs, small entrepreneurs, hospitals, units of the public finance sector, and state organizational units without legal personality, as defined in detail in the Act.

Under the amended Act, on 23 July 2019 the Regulation of the Minister of Energy on the method of calculation of the Price Difference Amount and Financial Compensation and on the method of determination of reference prices ("the Regulation") was published. This document defines, inter alia, the following:

  • the method of determining the prices and rates of electricity charges for end customers binding on 30 June 2018, to the level of which the Company is obliged to reduce prices in 2019,
  • the method of calculation of the Price Difference Amount and the Financial Compensation referred to in the Act.

Determination of amount of provision for onerous contracts

Due to the enactment of the Act and the publication of the Regulation, the Company analysed whether it is required to recognise provisions for onerous contracts under IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. According to reporting regulations, if a given contract or group of contracts generate a loss, then the company should recognise an appropriate provision in the period in which the loss became unavoidable unless it is unable to reliably determine the amount of this provision while contingent assets are recognised when they are virtually certain in the amount not higher than the recognised provisions.

Originally, in the report for 2018 the Company recognised the provision only in the scope of sales based on the tariff regulated by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office for customers in the G tariff groups. The provision was calculated on the basis of the existing legal situation at that moment, i.e.:

  • freezing the 2019 prices in regulated tariffs at the levels of 2018,
  • lack of clarity in the provisions of the Act in its wording as of 31 December 2018 resulting in the lack of recognition of contracts concluded with a loss in groups other than G tariffs,
  • no basis for recognising any assets on account of settlement with the Price Settlement Company (Zarządca Rozliczeń Cen) under the Act, due to the lack of a relevant Regulation and additional information containing data necessary for calculations.

Due to the publication of the relevant executive regulations and the necessary information for a reliable determination of the Price Difference Amount, the Company verified the aforesaid situation and additionally estimated the financial impact of the Act to the extent possible and reliable for customers other than those covered by the G regulated tariff.

For the calculation of the provision as at 30 June 2019, the Company adopted the following assumptions:

  • a) the existing legal situation as at 30 June 2019 and information after the balance sheet date relating to the Act,
  • b) maintaining the existing methodology of estimating the provision for contracts concluded with a loss for the G tariff groups in the regulated tariff,
  • c) application of the existing methodology for estimating provisions for contracts concluded with a loss for other groups of customers indicated in the amendment to the Act for H2 2019.

Recognition of the effects of the Act in H1 2019

Based on the aforementioned assumptions, the following has been established as of 30 June 2019:

  • a) adopting the prices binding in 2018 for customers from G tariff groups in the tariff regulated by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office, the Company estimated the so-called loss on the contract. This loss results from the adoption of model costs of electricity purchase in 2019 (costs of electricity and property rights and the excise tax rate at the level determined as justified by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office in the 2019 tariff proceedings) and the simultaneous application of the 2018 sales prices. The sales volume results from the level of sales to Tariff G customers as planned for Q3-Q4 2019. Considering the above, as at 30 June 2019 the company:
    • utilised the provision in the amount of PLN 41,004 thousand in H1 2019,
    • maintained the provision for the second half of the year at the level of PLN 37,977 thousand,
  • b) in accordance with the provisions of the Act, the Company amended the terms and conditions of the agreements, taking into account the provisions of the Act and the method of determining the reference prices applicable on 30 June 2018 contained in the Regulation. Consequently, the Company estimated the loss of revenue in H1 2019 from customers other than customers from the regulated G-segment.

As a result, in accordance with IFRS 15, the Company recognised an adjustment of sales revenues from price reductions for customers (other than customers in regulated G tariff) in the amount of PLN 374,615 thousand, which was recognised as at 30 June 2019 in the statement of financial position as Liabilities due to contracts with customers,

c) in accordance with the provisions of the Act and the Regulation, the Company has estimated the Price Difference Amount.

On the basis of a detailed analysis, the Company recognised as certain the asset due to the Price Difference Amount for H1 2019 in the amount of PLN 430,401 thousand, which was recognised as "Compensation" in the Profit and loss and other comprehensive income account, and as "Trade and other receivables" in the Statement of financial position,

  • d) The Company made a simultaneous estimation:
    • of the amount of loss on the contract in H2 2019 for other eligible customers (customers who submitted appropriate declarations for this purpose),
    • of an asset, which is virtually certain, in the form of financial compensation for the months July-August 2019, for which appropriate benchmarks have been defined at the time of preparation of these condensed separate financial statements.

However, given their level, the impact on the financial result was deemed immaterial by the Company and no additional provision or contingent asset was recognised.

The excess of the estimated price difference amount over the estimated amount of lost revenue in H1 2019 results from the recognition in the price difference of the return on account of the price applied from the beginning of the year frozen at the level of 2018 for the regulated G tariff (which is not reflected in the loss of revenue, and was partially covered by the provision created for contracts with a loss recognised as at 31 December 2018).

Apart from the utilisation of the provision for onerous contracts in the amount of PLN 21,556 thousand created in Q1 2019, all the effects of the Act were reflected in the Q2 2019 data.

6.1.2. Internal energy market

In 2018, negotiations on the so-called trilogy on the final provisions of the Winter Package, which are of fundamental importance for the functioning of the energy sector, were completed. In particular, it should be noted that during the negotiations on the Regulation of the European Parliament on the internal energy market, the lack of support from national power markets for generating units not meeting the so-called standard of 550g CO2 /kWh emissions was established. However, as part of the compromise sought by the Polish delegation, it was agreed that units emitting more than 550g CO2 /kWh, which concluded power contracts as part of the main auctions finally resolved by 31 December 2019, may receive remuneration for the performance of the power obligation for the entire period for which support was obtained from the power market. This is a very important compromise in view of the fact that the power market is a state aid instrument which required the approval of the European Commission and must function in accordance with the regulations of the internal market of the European Union.

Moreover, in the course of trilogues, the EU RES Directive set the EU RES 2030 target of 32% in gross final energy consumption and the possibility of support for new biomass units with a capacity above 100 MW in the event of achieving electricity efficiency at the level of 36% and the Energy Efficiency Directive set the reduction of energy consumption in the EU by 32.5% by 2030. The Energy Union Management Regulation (Governance) introduced the obligation to draw up a National Energy and Climate Plan as part of the implementation of the Energy Union, covering five dimensions: energy security, internal energy market, energy efficiency, decarbonisation, research, innovation and competitiveness. The main objective of the Energy Union governance mechanism is to enable the achievement of the objectives of the Energy Union, in particular the objectives of the climate and energy policy framework by 2030 in terms of greenhouse gas emission reduction, renewable energy and energy efficiency.

In January 2019, the Ministry of Energy submitted for consultation the draft document "National Energy and Climate Plan 2021-2030" (NECP). In accordance with Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2018, by 31 December 2019, and then by 1 January 2029 and every ten years thereafter, each Member State shall notify the Commission of an integrated national energy and climate plan.

6.1.3. Demand for electricity

According to the forecasts included in the document entitled "Updated forecast of demand for fuels and energy until 2030", the demand for electricity in the forthcoming years will rise in all economy sectors. Pursuant to the abovementioned document, net electricity production will have risen to 193.3 TWh by 2030.

Moreover, pursuant to the document entitled "Conclusions from forecasting analyses for the energy sector" 1) constituting an attachment to the draft "Polish Energy Policy until 2040", the domestic electricity demand will reach nearly 200 TWh in 2030 and 230 TWh in 2040. At the same time the total increase in energy demand for electricity in 2020-2040 is 40.4%. The demand for peak power in this period will increase by 35.5%.

6.1.4. Capacity market

Detailed information on contracted capacities for ENEA Group is described in the "Report of the Management Board on the operations of ENEA S.A. and ENEA Group in 2018" in Chapter 6.

6.1.5. European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS)

The Directive establishes, inter alia, two financial mechanisms:

  • Modernisation Fund for the modernisation of energy systems in low income Member States. It is intended to be financed by proceeds from the auction of allowances in the years 2021 to 2030. The Fund is to be used primarily to support the development of energy efficiency and investments in renewable energy sources.
  • Innovation Fund to provide financial support for RES development, carbon capture and storage and innovative low-emission projects. It is to be supplied with funds from allowances, which otherwise would be allocated free of charge or sold through auctions.

In addition, the framework for Phase IV of the EU ETS as well as new rules for the Market Stabilisation Mechanism (MSM) have been established. Pursuant to them, since the beginning of 2019, the reduction rate of allowances in circulation has increased from 12% to 24%. Allowances are gradually transferred from the auctioning system to the market stability reserve. Starting from 2024, the rate of 12% will be restored. In Phase IV of the EU ETS, which will start at the beginning of 2021 and last until 2030, the linear reduction factor will also be increased from 1.74% to 2.2%. Both of these elements have an impact on the reduction of supply on the EU ETS market, and thus on the increase in prices of CO2 emission allowances observed in 2018. At the peak of the increases, prices of CO2 emission allowances increased more than three times as compared to the beginning of the year. The increased volatility on the CO2 emission allowances market also had a significant impact on the increased volatility on energy markets throughout Europe, also in Poland.

6.1.6. Participation in the nuclear power plant programme

On 15 April 2015, KGHM, PGE, Tauron and ENEA signed a Share Purchase Agreement in PGE EJ 1. KGHM, Tauron and ENEA acquired from PGE 10% of shares each (in total 30% of shares) in PGE EJ 1. ENEA paid for the acquired shares PLN 16 million. According to the Shareholders' Agreement, ENEA S.A.'s financial contribution in the Phasing-in Period shall not exceed the amount of approx. PLN 107 million. The total expenditure of ENEA S.A. resulting from the purchase of shares and the increase of the Company's share capital have so far totalled PLN 32,544 thousand. On 28 November 2018, PGE S.A. expressed an initial interest in acquiring all shares in PGE EJ 1. Information presented by PGE S.A. indicated that the transaction would be possible upon a valuation by an independent advisor and obtaining corporate approvals by all involved entities. On 4 December 2018, ENEA expressed an initial interest in selling all shares held in PGE EJ 1. The other shareholders, i.e. Tauron and KGHM, also expressed an initial interest in selling shares held by them in PGE EJ 1. On 17 April 2019, PGE S.A. decided to withdraw from the process of acquisition of shares held by other Shareholders.

6.1.7. Amendment to RES Act

In Q1 2019, work began on a draft of another act amending the Act on Renewable Energy Sources and certain other acts. The amendment came into force on 29 August 2019. In the amendment, the term "renewable energy prosumer" was defined, the terms and conditions of connecting a microinstallation were laid down, i.e. changes were implemented consisting in the necessity to introduce a closed catalogue of elements included in the application, which - as the authors of the amendment assure - standardizes the practices applied in this respect by individual distribution system operators. A new concept of energy cooperatives, whose members can make settlements using the system of discounts, was also proposed. The amendment to the RES Act will enable public support mechanisms to be extended to larger installations through participation in auctions planned for this year. In the 2019 RES auctions, RES generation facilities with a capacity of as much as 3.4 GW will be eligible for support - including 2.5 GW for wind power within the wind and photovoltaic basket for projects with a capacity of over 1 MW, while about 0.7 GW will be allocated to investors planning to submit bids under the wind and photovoltaic basket with a unit capacity of up to 1 MW. The amendment will extend the maximum time for launching the sale of supported wind energy in this year's auction from 24 to 33 months, and of energy generated in photovoltaic power plants - from 18 to 24 months. For other technologies, the period will now be 42 months and not 36 months as before.

6.1.8. 2019 Tariff for electricity distribution services

By virtue of the decision of the President of the Energy Regulatory Office published in the Energy Regulatory Office's sector bulletin "Electricity" No. 86(2721) of 22 March 2019, the tariff for electricity distribution services for the period until 31 December 2019 was approved. The tariff came into force on 6 April 2019, except for the transitional fee and RES fee rates approved by the decision of the President of ERO dated 14 January 2019, which come into force retroactively from 1 January 2019, and the cogeneration fee rates approved by the decision of the President of ERO, which came into force on 25 January 2019.

6.1.9. General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

GDPR is an EU legal act which entered into force on 25 May 2018 in all member states. It introduces new rules for the processing of personal data and imposes new obligations on data controllers. In its activities, ENEA Group takes into account the requirements of the new regulations, including ensuring an appropriate level of security for the processed personal data, primarily with a view to protecting the rights and freedoms of persons whose data are processed.

6.1.10. Court and administrative proceedings

As at the publication date of this report, no significant proceedings regarding the liabilities or debt claims are pending, to which ENEA S.A. or its subsidiary is a party. A detailed description of any proceedings is included in Note 26 to the condensed interim consolidated financial statements of ENEA Group for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2019.

Analyses are in progress with respect to the possible use of the existing coal-fired systems to supply gaseous fuel.

6.1.16. New social contract

In April 2019, employers and representatives of the Social Side of several ENEA Group companies concluded the so-called new social contract. This document regulates in particular the issue of stable employment in the Group companies which joined the contract and will enable all employees of the Group to enjoy additional benefits on equal terms. The contract covers such issues as employment security, employee tariffs, subscription-based healthcare services, contributions to the Employee Social Benefit Fund (ZFŚS) or official industry celebration days treated as public holidays. The provisions of the contract will be incorporated into, among others, corporate collective agreements and remuneration regulations so that the benefits resulting from the new social contract are extended to all employees of the ENEA Group companies which entered into the contract.

6.1.17. Changes in the Management Boards of key companies

6.2. Natural environment

6.2.1. Reduction of pollutant emissions

In accordance with EU regulations, and in particular Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010 on industrial emissions (integrated pollution prevention and control) (the Industrial Emissions Directive or IED), as of 1 January 2016 new, stricter environment protection standards are applicable. Therefore, all electricity producers in Poland who use first of all carbon-intensive technologies are obliged to adjust their power units to the new environmental requirements. To address the problems of entrepreneurs, EU law envisages a possibility of using derogation mechanisms. The alleviation of the IED requirements in the form of a derogation makes it possible to obtain additional time for adjusting generation units to the stricter air pollutant emission standards. On 17 August 2017, the so-called BAT conclusions for large combustion plants (Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2017/1442 of 31 July 2017 laying down the conclusions on best available techniques (the BAT conclusions) for large combustion plants in accordance with Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council) were published in the Official Journal of the European Union. The published BAT conclusions introduce, among other things, stricter requirements (than in the IED) for pollutants such as sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and dust. The BAT-associated emission levels (BAT-AELs) were also determined for additional substances such as mercury, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen fluoride and ammonia. The BAT conclusions will apply from 18 August 2021 after the end of the 4-year adjustment period.

7. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

Finale of the 2nd edition of the "ENEA Talent Academy" educational project

In January 2019, the jury and Internet users selected the winners of 2nd edition of ENEA Talent Academy. Altogether, eighteen students received scholarships to develop their scientific, artistic and sporting passions. Using the awarded grants, nine schools will implement additional, extra-curricular educational projects.

Finale of the 2 nd edition of the "We Run – We Raise – We Help" sports and charity project and implementation of the 3 rd edition

On 30 March 2019, over 120 children from care and educational institutions from all over Poland took part in ENEA Active Camp – sports and psychological workshops organised by the Kamila Skolimowska Foundation. The children were accompanied by Piotr Lisek, Pole Vault World Vice-Champion. The event was held thanks to the involvement of ENEA Group's employees, who ran out of funds for its organisation in the "We Run - We Raise -We Help" project. Since March this year, the project has been continued in an expanded formula. We doubled the cash rate for running; we extended the list of disciplines in the programme (points can also be collected for participation in cycling and Nordic walking competitions), and we extended the scoring system (the programme additionally promotes competitions with the participation of min. 3 employees, charitable competitions or competitions supported by ENEA Group companies). From March to June 2019, 185 runners took part in 157 competitions; we collected 214 points, through which PLN 21,400 was raised in the programme The final amount is PLN 50,000, which the ENEA Foundation will allocate to a charitable sports project for children and youth.

ENEA Eco Projects

Ecological activity, which assumes the implementation of 9 pro-environmental actions (such as planting and cleaning forests, ecological picnics, building educational paths and breeding grounds for animals) in partnership with selected Forest Districts in the State Forests, is addressed to local communities from the main area of ENEA Group's activity. Until 30 June, we supported four pro-ecological initiatives, including Park 40-lecia. Planting 40 trees for the 40th anniversary of Połaniec Power Plant; nature and education fair "Forest on the Isle" in Piła; and "Let's Plant a Forest Together!" in Zielona Góra. Additionally, the #TrashChallengeEnei volunteer action was carried out in Bydgoszcz, Gorzów Wielkopolski, Piła, Połaniec, Poznań, Szczecin, Świerże Górne and Zielona Góra.

"Potęga poMocy" (The Power of Help) – 3rd edition of the grant programme

In H1 2019, we conducted two editions of the programme, in which 10 pro-social projects submitted by ENEA Group employees were selected winners. The winning projects include: "Special Education Primary School No. 107 in Poznań – creation and organization of an educational and recreational space for disabled children"; "Primary School in Brzóza – organization of a tournament "Keeping Fit with ENEA – For My Health"; Association "Help from Our Hearts" – a series of workshops for the local community and transferring the work results to charity.

7. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) – cont.

Health promoting actions and social initiatives

Responsible management practices – Non-Financial Statement of ENEA Group for 2018

In March 2019, in compliance with its obligation under the Accounting Act of 15 December 2016 implementing Directive 2014/95/EU, ENEA Group published "The Non-Financial Statement of ENEA Group for 2018" as part of the "Report of the Management Board on the operations of ENEA S.A. and ENEA Group for 2018". The statement, for the second year now, follows GRI Standards. This means, among others, that:

  • stakeholders' perspective (through a survey) was included in the stage of determining the scope of reported non-financial information and the so-called "material aspects of reporting"
  • the Statement uses indicators recommended by GRI Standards
  • in accordance with the guidelines of GRI Standards, the indicators concerning the number of Employees include data as at the last day of the reporting period, i.e. 31 December 2018.

In addition to the Statement for 2018, ENEA Group published separately "The 2018 Sustainability Report of ENEA Group" on a dedicated website in August 2019. Since 2011, the Group has been following the practice of reporting on sustainable development and responsible business.

ENEA joined the Signatories of the "Partnership for the Implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" within the "Agenda 2030 National Stakeholder Forum"

ENEA joined the Partnership for Sustainable Development in May 2019 during the 2nd edition of the Agenda 2030 National Stakeholder Forum, which took place at the Ministry of Entrepreneurship and Technology as part of the European Sustainable Development Week. During the Forum, as a company aware of global challenges, ENEA became a signatory of the Partnership and made a commitment to implement three Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): SDG 4 "Quality education"; SDG 8 "Decent work and economic growth" and SDG 17 "Partnership for the goals". The implementation of SDG 17 is manifested by the undertaken initiative "Partnership for competence management to ensure continuity and security of energy supply for society". Under the initiative, noting the changes in the surrounding reality, we develop cooperation with the school and scientific community and initiate actions that will help us to maintain the desired competences and educate appropriately educated employees when we need them.

EBITDA of ENEA Operator Sp. z o.o. – change drivers (a decrease of PLN 68 million):

    • higher revenues from the sale of distribution services to end users by PLN 34 million are mainly a consequence of higher rates in the approved tariff for 2019
  • higher costs of purchase of transmission and distribution services (on balance) by PLN 9 million are a consequence of higher rates in the approved tariff for 2019
  • higher costs of electricity purchase to cover the energy balance difference (on balance) by PLN 38 million result primarily from higher average electricity prices
  • lower result on other operating activities by PLN 40 million results mainly from lower revenues from the insurer due to removal of random damages and changes in provisions for grid assets
