Sweden's power group Vattenfall still does not rule out its participating in the tender for the majority stake in listed power group Enea, in which it holds 18.67%, the Parkiet daily reported. 


Vattenfall Poland's CEO Jacek Piekacz told the newspaper that Enea was not a closed chapter and added that Vattenfall continued to monitor Poland's privatisation processes as it wanted to be present on the Polish power market. 

In 2009, Vattenfall did not participate in the tender for a majority stake in Enea, which was subsequently cancelled after Germany's RWE withdrew its bid. Vattenfall purchased its minority stake in the Polish firm in Enea's 2008 IPO. 

This year, the treasury ministry wants to sell the majority stake in Enea to a strategic investor.
