HUANENG POWER INTERNATIONAL, INC.
Power Generation Increases 2.79% in the First Quarter of 2006
(Beijing, China, April 10, 2006) Huaneng Power International, Inc. (the
"Company") [NYSE: HNP; HKEx: 902; SSE: 600011] today announced its power
generation in the first quarter of 2006.
Based on preliminary statistics, for the first quarter ended March 31, 2006,
the Company's total power generation based on a consolidated basis was 37.096
billion kWh, an increase of 2.79% over the same period last year. The power
generation of Shantou Power Plant, Taicang Power Plant, Yueyang Power Plant,
Qinbei Power Plant and Shanghai Shidongkou First Power Plant increased
significantly as compared with the same period last year.
The increase in power generation of the Company's power plants was mainly
attributable to the following reasons:
1. Stable generation capacity contributed by four newly operated generating
units at Shantou Power Plant, Taicang Power Plant and Yueyang Power Plant
since the same period last year;
2. A larger increase in power generation by Qinbei Power Plant and Shanghai
Shidongkou First Power Plant due to the significantly shortened
maintenance period of respective power plants in the first quarter this
year when compared to the same period last year;
3. As a result of continuing economic growth, power demand in the regions
where the Company's power plants operated underwent steady growth,
thereby providing favorable market conditions for more power generation
by the Company's power plants.
