Interesting figures from the Sustainability Report
Preparations for the 2025 sustainability report are in full swing. Dozens of colleagues across the MND Group are already collecting data, verifying information and participating in audit meetings so that we can publish a report at the end of April next year, which will serve as an important reference for banks, investors and partners in tender procedures.
Almost 100 colleagues across the group are currently involved in preparing the report:
-
Most of them (50) are focusing on environmental topics, such as the amount of energy consumed and produced, the amount of waste generated, and water management. Together, this amounts to 220 pieces of information reported in this area alone.
-
Information about employees is processed by 20 colleagues, who provide us with data on employees broken down by gender, age category, or type of employment, for example. This amounts to a total of 160 items of information.
-
A total of 35 colleagues are involved in collecting general information and data on company management. They provide data on, for example, ownership structure or internal policies. In this area, we regularly monitor and report a total of 110 items of information.
The scope of the data collected varies between companies depending on the type of activity – not every company in the group reports all 490 items of information. We greatly appreciate the helpfulness and cooperation with which all colleagues across the various parts of MND are involved in the process.

Artificial intelligence is now part of almost every profession – and if we can use it properly, it can be of great help to us. We spoke to Libor Sedláček, an HR analyst at MND who has been actively using AI for several years, about his day-to-day experiences.
Disposal of Ždánice probes: closing another chapter of mining
At the start of 2023, the decommissioning of three wells in the Ždánice area was successfully completed. This symbolically marked the end of a chapter in the long history of oil and gas extraction in this region. Each well had a different history and significance, but what they had in common was that they had fulfilled their purpose and, upon reaching the end of their life cycle, were professionally and safely secured in a permanent state.
Trading 2025: volatility and new opportunities
The year 2025 proved unfavourable for trading activities. Since the new US administration took office, an unpredictable ‘storm’ of tariffs has raged. The markets were unable to cope with this – and we were no exception. There were sharp fluctuations in energy commodity prices simply on the basis of Donald Trump’s comments on Twitter or in reaction to a newspaper headline, even though the latter contained no new information. A very unfortunate period.
Ruda Jakubík - almost 50 years in MND!
Rudolf Jakubík joined MND by chance in 1977. After his military service, he worked in a bank, where, during a tour, he met the head of the information systems department at the MND in Hodonín among the visitors. One thing led to another, a job offer came along, and even a higher salary. Although the promised computers remained more of a dream for the time being, Ruda took a step that changed his life for the next 49 years.

Storage 2026: capacity sales and security
Although 2025 was by no means an easy year for MND’s storage companies, as the prediction that developments in the gas market could have a negative impact on the storage capacity market proved entirely accurate, all three of our storage companies successfully met their targets and thus managed to generate the expected added value.

How geothermal energy works
Renewable energy sources have become a key topic in recent years. Everyone is familiar with solar and wind power plants, but there is another source that stands out for its stability, reliability and minimal dependence on weather conditions. However, it is not talked about as much
. Geothermal energy – heat accumulated in the Earth's crust – is one of the most promising types of clean energy, especially at a time when the need for stable, low-emission sources is growing.
