OVERSEAS REGULATORY ANNOUNCEMENT

POWER GENERATION INCREASES 6.24% IN 2006

 

This announcement is made pursuant to Rule 13.09(2) of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

 

Huaneng Power International, Inc. (the “Company”) announced its power generation in 2006.

 

Based on the Company’s preliminary statistics, as of 31st December 2006, the Company’s total power generation based on a consolidated basis in 2006 was 159.897 billion kWh, an increase of 6.24% over the previous year. The power generation of Shantou Power Plant, Taicang Power Plant, Yueyang Power Plant, Dandong Power Plant, Xindian Power Plant, Huaiyin Power Plant and Luohuang Power Plant increased significantly as compared to the previous year.

 

The increase in power generation of the Company’s power plants was mainly attributable to the following reasons:

 

1.

The Company has adopted effective sales and marketing strategies and brought into full play the advantages of the Company’s high capacity and environmental efficiency generating units as well as low operating costs, etc, thereby managed to capture larger market shares in market competition.

 

2.

The Company seized timely the opportunities arising from, among others, the change in market conditions in the areas where the Company’s power plants operated and the unusual climatic changes. In addition, the safe and reliable generating units and secure fuel supply provided favourable conditions to the Company to maintain continuing growth in power generation.

 

3.

In 2006, a total of 18 new thermal and hydropower generating units (with an aggregate capacity of 7,150MW) commenced operation. The safe and stable operation of these generating units played an important role in the Company’s power generation growth.

 

The power generation of each of the Company’s power plants in 2006 was listed below (in billion kWh):
