It should be noted that, in Q1 2026, Jastrzębska Spółka Węglowa increased its coking coal production by almost 20% year-on-year – to 2.78 million tonnes, which was the key driver of the group’s production growth. Total coal production rose by 13.1% year-on-year – to 3.24 million tonnes.

As reported by GMK Center, JSW had previously revised its forecast for 2026, lowering its expected coal production volume due to delays at one of its key mines. This year’s figure is expected to be approximately 13.3 million tonnes. Last November, the estimate stood at approximately 13.5 million tonnes.
