Background
The Nastup Tusimice coal mine is a surface mine near Chomutov and Kadan, Czech Republic.[4] The mine is owned and operated by Severočeské doly A.S which in turn is owned by ČEZ Group.
Severočeské doly is the largest Czech brown coal mining company. It also operates Bilina coal mine. In 2021, Severočeské doly sold a total of 15.9 million tonnes of coal 2021, 11.7 of which was to the power plants within CEZ Group.[5] In 2022, the company sold 17.8 million tonnes of coal, the reason for the significant increase was mainly due to the energy crisis in Europe and the need to secure the electricity missing from the gas supply.[6]
Coal is transported from the mine by belt conveyors to the Tusimice power station (ČEZ) or to a loading hopper with subsequent further rail transport to the designated customers.[7]
Czech Republic committed to phase out coal by 2033.[8] However as of November 2023 there is no information about the plans for the Nastup Tumisice mine.
In 2021, 7.9 million tonnes of coal were mined, destined to the local power plants Tusimice power station and Prunerov power station and to a lesser extent by rail transport to the power plants Melnik power station and Opatovice power station. Coal production from the mine in 2022 increased to 8.6 million tonnes.[9]
