Huaneng Power International, Inc. Power Generation Within China Decreases by 2.44% in the First Quarter of 2013
BEIJING, April 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Huaneng Power International, Inc. ("HPI" or the "Company") (NYSE: HNP; HKEx: 902; SSE: 600011) today announced its power generation in the first quarter of 2013.
According to the Company's preliminary statistics, as of March 31, 2013, the Company's total power generation within China on consolidated basis amounted to 74.306 billion kWh, representing a decrease of 2.44% over the same period last year. Total electricity sold by the Company amounted to 70.205 billion kWh, representing a decrease of 2.25% over the same period last year.
The decrease in power generation of the Company was mainly attributable to the following reasons:
- As the domestic power demand stayed low in the first quarter of 2013, nationwide thermal power generation saw only a slight increase of 0.87% for the first quarter of 2013, with negative growth in southeast coastal areas and modest growth in other regions. In Gansu and Yunnan, hydropower output increased considerably which affected the rate of growth in the thermal power sector. Since the Company's installed capacity is mainly fuelled by thermal power generators and distributed in southeast coastal areas, the electricity generated by the Company experienced decrease over the same period last year.
- The Company has no cogenerating units in Hebei, Shanxi, Henan and Gansu. The increased cyclic non-operation of non-cogenerating units of the Company during the heating season had affected our output of electricity in these areas.
The power generation and electricity sold by each of the Company's domestic power plants in the first quarter of 2013 are listed below (in billion kWh):
