Huaneng Power International, Inc.: Power Generation Within China Increases by 1.51% for the First Half Year of 2014

2014-07-15 19:23 1309

BEIJING, July 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Huaneng Power International, Inc. (the "Company") (NYSE: HNP; HKEx: 902; SSE: 600011) announced its power generation for the first half of 2014 today.

According to the Company's preliminary statistics, as of June 30, 2014, the Company's total power generation by its power plants within China on consolidated basis amounted to 151.739 billion kWh, representing an increase of 1.51% over the same period last year. Total electricity sold by the Company's power plants within China amounted to 143.554 billion kWh, representing an increase of 1.62% over the same period last year.

The low growth of the Company's power generation was mainly attributable to the following reasons:

  1. The nation-wide electricity consumption in China is experiencing low or medium growth due to the slowdown of the Chinese economy.
  2. The commencement of operations of multiple West-to-East UHV transmission lines has squeezed the generation potential of thermal power generators in the coastal region in the east of China, which thermal power generators account for a relatively high proportion in the Company's total power generation capacities, thus having material impact on the Company's power generations.
  3. The commencement of operations of many hydropower generating units in Yunnan which power generations are also transmittable to Guangdong load center, as well as the commencement of operations of large nuclear power generators in Liaoning and Fujian, has had negative effect upon the power generations by thermal power units in Yunnan, Guangdong, Liaoning, and Fujian.
  4. Against this unfavorable background, the Company has enhanced marketing efforts, seized market opportunities, strengthened the monitoring of power usage during the holidays and critical periods, and made efforts to improve the power generation growth.

The power generation and electricity sold by each of the Company's domestic power plants for the first half year of 2014 are listed below (in billion kWh):
