POWER GENERATION WITHIN CHINA
FOR THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2015

This announcement is made pursuant to Rule 13.10B of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

Huaneng Power International, Inc. (the “Company”) announces its power generation for the first quarter of 2015.

According to the Company’s preliminary statistics, as of 31 March 2015, the Company’s total power generation by the power plants within China on consolidated basis amounted to 82.545 billion kWh, representing an increase of 6.81% over the same period last year. Total electricity sold by the Company amounted to 77.992 billion kWh, representing an increase of 6.64% over the same period last year.

The increase in power generation of the Company was mainly attributable to the acquisition of power plants from its parent company and the generation units which have been recently put into operation.

The decrease in the power generation of some power plants as compared with the same period of last year was attributable to the major reasons: Firstly, in the first quarter of 2015, the economy in China continued to grow slowly, with the deepening of the country’s economic restructuring as well as continuing decline in the growth of the power consumption nationwide, the power generation in the areas where the Company’s coal-fired generating plants are located decreased correspondingly on consolidated basis over the same period last year. Secondly, the commencement of operation of a number of ultra-high voltage west-to-east power transmission lines in China reduced the power generation market of thermal power generating units in the southeast coastal regions where a high proportion of thermal power generating units of the Company are located, thereby having a relatively greater impact on the Company. Thirdly, the commencement of operation of many hydropower generating units in the southwest region as well as the abundant water supply in the same region contributed to a significant increase in hydro-power generations, which has reduced the power generation market of thermal power generating units in Yunnan Province as well as Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Guangdong where the excessive hydro-powers generated in the southwest

 
 

 
 
region were provided. Meanwhile, power output from thermal power generating units in Liaoning and Fujian were affected by the commencement in the operation of large nuclear generating units in these two provinces.

The power generation and electricity sold by each of the Company’s domestic power plants for the first quarter of 2015 are listed below (in billion kWh):

OVERSEAS REGULATORY ANNOUNCEMENT
ISSUE OF SHORT-TERM DEBENTURES
 
This announcement is made pursuant to Rule 13.10B of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Listing Rules”).
 
As resolved at the 2012 annual general meeting of Huaneng Power International, Inc. (the “Company”) held on 19 June 2013, the Company has been given a mandate to issue short-term debentures (in either one or multiple tranches on rolling basis) with a principal amount of up to RMB15 billion (which means that the outstanding principal balance of the short-term debentures in issue shall not exceed RMB15 billion at any time within the period as prescribed herein) in the PRC within 24 months from the date on which the shareholders’ approval was obtained.

The Company has recently completed the issue of the first tranche of the Company’s short-term debentures for 2015 (the “Debentures”). The total issuing amount was RMB5 billion with a maturity period of 365 days whereas the unit face value is RMB100 and the interest rate is 4.44%.

China Construction Bank Corporation acts as the lead underwriter to form the underwriting syndicate for the Debentures, which were placed through book-building and issued in the domestic bond market among banks. The proceeds from the Debentures will be used principally to settle part of the bank loans so as to improve its debt structure and to supplement short term operational working capital.

 
 

 

The relevant documents in respect of the Debentures are posted on China Money and Shanghai Clearing House at websites of www.chinamoney.com.cn and www.shclearing.com, respectively.
 
The Debentures do not constitute any transaction under Chapter 14 and Chapter 14A of the Listing Rules.
