Ministry of the Treasury to analyze Universal Energy offer

The Ministry of the Treasury expressed its interest in the offer made by Universal Energy to acquire three out of four mines destined for closure. “We are interested in the offer and we will analyze it thoroughly,” said Włodzimierz Karpiński, head of the Ministry, during an interview with a Polish news channel Polsat News. We also have informal offers from abroad, he added. Universal Energy wants to purchase three mining sites KWK Brzeszcze, KWK Sośnica-Makoszowy and KWK Bobrek Centrum. Under the government’s plan for restructuring the Polish mining industry, Kompania Węglowa, the biggest mining company in Poland, will be divided. Some of the mines will become part of a new company, while the others will be sold or liquidated.
