Poland's thermal coal prices decreased by 3.4 percent month on month in November 2024 to PLN 461.47 (EUR 108.17) per tonne, while for the heat market they fell by 5.9 percent to PLN 511.29 (EUR 119.85) per tonne, according to an analysis of price indices jointly created by the state industrial development agency ARP and the TGE Polish commodity exchange.
The situation on the domestic steam coal market is illustrated by two indices, based on monthly ex-post data and expressing the selling price of hard coal, in a quality adapted to the needs of customers.
The PSCMI1 index (Polish Steam Coal Market Index) expresses the price of coal for the so-called professional and industrial power industry, while the PSCMI2 index expresses the price of coal for industrial and municipal heating plants. The value expressed in the indices is the net price of coal 'on the wagon' at the point of loading - excluding excise tax, insurance costs and delivery costs.

The PSCMI2 index deteriorated by 5.9 percent month on month and by 21.2 percent year on year, to PLN 511.29 (EUR 119.85) per tonne.
