Results of Power Generation for the First Three Quarters of 2004
This announcement is issued 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 for the first three quarters of 2004.
Based on preliminary statistics, as of 30th September 2004, the Company's total
power generation on a consolidated basis for the first three quarters of 2004
was 80.81 billion kWh, an increase of 22.35% over the same period last year.
The power generation of Jining Power Plant, Nantong Power Plant, Fuzhou Power
Plant and Dandong Power Plant increased significantly.
The increase in power generation of the Company's power plants in the first
three quarters of 2004 was mainly attributable to the following reasons:
1. Significant increase in power demand and power consumption in the regions
where the Company's power plants operate due to a steady growth of the
national economy;
2. Residential power consumption increased due to hot weather in many
regions during spring and summer this year;
3. Increase in power generation as a result of the newly operated generating
units and other newly acquired projects;
4. Decrease of hydro-power generation in some regions has provided a
favourable condition for the Company's coal-fired power plants;
5. Improved availability and reliability of the Company's generating units
through technical innovations, thereby assuring growth in the Company's
power generation.
The power generation of each of the Company's power plants in the first three
quarters of 2004 was listed below (in billion kWh):
Dalian 7.18 Weihai 3.61
Fuzhou 7.32 Shanghai Shidongkou First 6.10
Nantong 7.10 Changxing 1.49
