Poland's utility Enea considers investing in local coal miner Bogdanka to gain direct access to coal used for energy production.

Mr Krzysztof Zborowski Enea's deputy chief executive said that "We are considering such an idea and we are running a deep analysis of it now. We have also thought about that before."

He added that "This is in a study phase, but privately I think that creating a line from extraction, through production and sale does make a lot of sense."
