Huaneng Power International, Inc. Power Generation Within China Decreases by 0.46% for the First Half Year of 2013

BEIJING, July 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Huaneng Power International, Inc. ("HPI", the "Company") (NYSE: HNP; HKEx: 902; SSE: 600011) today announced its power generation for the first half year of 2013.

According to the Company's preliminary statistics, as of June 30, 2013, the Company's total power generation within China on consolidated basis amounted to 149.483 billion kWh, representing a decrease of 0.46% over the same period last year. Total electricity sold by the Company amounted to 141.268 billion kWh, representing a decrease of 0.26% over the same period last year. The decrease in power generation of the Company was mainly attributable to the following reasons:

  1. The growth of electricity output of the Company was affected by the slowdown of the national economy which led to the growth of the nationwide and society-wide electricity consumption lower than that anticipated at the beginning of the year.
  2. As a result of the distribution of installed generation capacity of the Company, the growth rate of power output of the regions where the power plants of the Company are located was relatively low during the first half of the year and certain regions even recorded negative growth. At the same time, hydropower recorded a big growth in certain provinces and the electricity output of local thermal generating units decreased substantially.
  3. The average growth rate of installed capacity of the Company was below the nationwide average level during the first half of the year.
  4. According to the national energy saving and emission reduction requirements, the Company arranged denitrification transformation for a greater number of generating units during the first half of the year and it has affected the Company's power generation growth to a certain extent.

The power generation and electricity sold by each of the Company's domestic power plants for the first half year of 2013 are listed below (in billion kWh):
