References herein to “US$” or “U.S. dollars” are to United States Dollars, references to “HK$” are to Hong Kong Dollars, and references to “S$” are to Singapore Dollars. References to ADRs and ADSs are to American Depositary Receipts and American Depositary Shares, respectively. Translations of amounts from Renminbi to U.S. Dollars are solely for the convenience of the reader. Unless otherwise indicated, any translations from Renminbi to U.S. Dollars or from U.S. Dollars to Renminbi were translated at the average rate announced by the People’s Bank of China (the “PBOC Rate”) on December 31, 2015 of US$1.00 to RMB6.4936. No representation is made that the Renminbi or U.S. Dollar amounts referred to herein could have been or could be converted into U.S. Dollars or Renminbi, as the case may be, at the PBOC Rate or at all.

References to “A Shares” are to common tradable shares issued to domestic shareholders.

References to the “central government” refer to the national government of the PRC and its various ministries, agencies and commissions.

Risks relating to our business and the PRC’s power industry

Government regulation of on-grid power tariffs and other aspects of the power industry may adversely affect our business

Similar to electric power companies in other countries, we are subject to governmental and electric grid regulations in virtually all aspects of our operations, including the amount and timing of electricity generations, the setting of on-grid tariffs, the performance of scheduled maintenance, and the compliance with power grid control and dispatch directives as well as environment protection regulations. There can be no assurance that these regulations will not change in the future in a manner which could adversely affect our business.

The on-grid tariffs for our planned output are subject to a review and approval process involving the NDRC and the relevant provincial government. Since April 2001, the PRC Government has been implementing an on-grid tariff-setting mechanism based on the operating terms of power plants as well as the average costs of comparable power plants. Pursuant to the NDRC circular issued in June 2004, the on-grid tariffs for our newly built power generating units commencing operation from June 2004 have been set on the basis of the average cost of comparable units adding tax and reasonable return in the regional grid. Any future reductions in our tariffs, or our inability to raise tariffs (for example, to cover any increased costs we may have to incur) as a result of the new on-grid tariff-setting mechanism, may adversely affect our revenue and profit.

In addition, the PRC Government started a program in 1999 to effect power sales through competitive bidding in some of the provinces where we operate our power plants. The on-grid tariffs for power sold through competitive bidding are generally lower than the pre-approved on-grid tariffs for planned output. In the more recent few years, power sales through competitive bidding only accounted for a small portion of our overall power sales. Nevertheless, the PRC Government is seeking to expand the program. Any increased power sales through competitive bidding may reduce our on-grid tariffs and may adversely affect our revenue and profits.

Furthermore, the PRC Government started in 2009 to promote the practice of direct power purchase by large power end-users. Pursuant to the circular jointly issued by NDRC, the State Electricity Regulatory Commission (“SERC”) and China National Energy Administration in June 2009, the direct power purchase price consists of direct transaction price, on-grid dispatch and distribution price and governmental levies and charges, in which the direct transaction price shall be freely determined through negotiation between the power generation company and the large power end-user. The price of direct power purchase shall be subject to the supply and demand in the power market. Furthermore, the scale and mode of the transaction are also subject to the structure and level of development of local economy. In terms of power generation companies engaged in direct power purchase, direct power sales constitute a portion of the total power sales, thus affecting the on-grid power sales of the Company. For the past few years, the PRC Government continued the reform in the area of direct power purchase by large power end-users. Although the direct power purchase may act as an alternative channel for our power sales, there is uncertainty as to the effect of the practice of direct power purchase over our operating results.

The on-grid tariff-setting mechanism is evolving with the reforming of the PRC electric power industry. There is no assurance that it will not change in a manner which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. See “Item 4 Information of the Company – B. Business Overview – Pricing Policy”.

If our power plants receive less dispatching than planned generation, the power plants will sell less electricity than planned

Our profitability depends, in part, upon each of our power plants generating electricity to meet the planned generation, which in turn will be subject to local demand for electric power and dispatching to the grids by the dispatch centers of the local grid companies.

The dispatch of electric power generated by a power plant is controlled by the dispatch center of the applicable grid companies pursuant to a dispatch agreement with us and to governmental dispatch regulations. In each of the markets we operate, we compete against other power plants for power sales. No assurance can be given that the dispatch centers will dispatch the full amount of the planned generation of our power plants. A reduction by the dispatch center in the amount of electric power dispatched relative to a power plant’s planned generation could have an adverse effect on the profitability of our operations. However, we have not encountered any such event in the past.

In August 2007, the General Office of the State Council issued a notice, promoting the energy saving electricity dispatch policy, which provides dispatching priority to electricity generated from renewable resources over electricity generated from unrenewable resources. For past years, the government made continuous effort to improve energy saving, emission reduction and resources allocation. In 2015, the NDRC and China National Energy Administration jointly issued Guidelines on Improving Electric Power Operations and Deepening Clean Energy Generation confirming a system ensuring the full-priced purchasing of renewable energy, and requests furthering the electric power differentiation system on coal-fired units. We cannot assure that such implementation will not result in any decrease in the amount of the power dispatched by any of our power plants.

The power industry reform may affect our business

The PRC Government in 2002 announced and started to implement measures to further reform the power industry, with the ultimate goal of creating a more open and fair power market. As part of the reform, five power generation companies, including Huaneng Group, were created or restructured to take over all the power generation assets originally belonging to the State Power Corporation of China. In addition, two grid companies were created to take over the power transmission and distribution assets originally belonging to the State Power Corporation of China. An independent power supervisory commission, the SERC, was created to regulate the power industry. There might be further reforms, and it is uncertain how these reform measures and any further reforms will be implemented and impact our business.

In December 2012, the PRC Government issued a notice to further reform the coal pricing mechanism, which mandated (1) the termination of all key coal purchase contracts between power generation companies and coal suppliers, and the abolition of national guidance of the railway transportation capacity plan, and (2) the cancellation of the dual-track coal pricing system, effective from January 1, 2013. For a detailed discussion of the reform, see “Item 4 Information on the Company – B. Business overview – Pricing policy”. There can be no assurance that such coal pricing reform will not adversely affect our results of operation. In 2013, the PRC Government continued the reform in power industry. In July 2013, China National Energy Administration issued the Notice on Direct Purchases between Power End-users and Power Generation Companies, which officially implemented the direct purchases programs by large end-users. On March 15, 2015, the Opinions of CPC Central Committee and State Council Regarding Further Deepening Reform of the Electricity System was released, according to which the reform will be focused and directed to orderly liberalize the tariff of the competitive markets other than electricity transmission and distribution, gradually allow investment from private investors in power distribution and selling businesses, consistently open the power generation market other than those for non-profit purpose or under regulation, push for independent and regulated operation of the parties involved in electricity transactions, continue the study of regional power grid construction and the transmission and distribution system suitable for China, further strengthen government regulations for enhanced power coordination and planning, and further improve safe and efficient operation of electricity and reliable power supply. These reforms will have a profound impact on the business models of power generation enterprises and may intensify the competition which

may adversely affect our business. In November 2015, the NDRC and China Energy Administration issued six official documents regarding electricity system reform, namely Opinions on Deepening Electricity Price Reform, Opinions on Furthering Electricity Market Development, Opinions on Establishing and Institutionalizing Electricity Purchasing Organizations, Opinions on Orderly Open Up Electricity Generation and Consumption, Opinions on Deepening Electricity Sales Reform and Guidelines on Fortifying and Institutionalizing the Management of Coal-fired Power Plants, further confirming the direction of the newest round of reforms of the electricity system. These reform actions will influence the operations of power generation companies and may intensify competition, which may negatively impact our company.

We are effectively controlled by Huaneng Group and HIPDC, whose interests may differ from those of our other shareholders

Huaneng Group, directly or indirectly holds 13.83% of our total outstanding shares, and HIPDC directly holds 33.33% of our total outstanding shares. As Huaneng Group is HIPDC’s parent company, they may exert effective control over us acting in concert. Their interests may sometimes conflict with those of our other minority shareholders. There is no assurance that Huaneng Group and HIPDC will always vote their shares, or direct the directors nominated by them to act in a way that will benefit our other minority shareholders.

Disruption in coal supply and its transportation as well as increase in coal price may adversely affect the normal operation of our power plants

A substantial majority of our power plants are fueled by coal. The coal supply for our power plants is arranged through free negotiation between power companies, coal suppliers, and railway authorities. Thus, any material disruption in coal supply and its transportation may adversely affect our operations. To date, we have not experienced shutdowns or reduced electricity generation caused by inadequate coal supply or transportation services.

In addition, our results of operations are sensitive to the fluctuation of coal price. For the past few years, the Chinese coal market was showing a surplus in production, resulting in a significantly decreased coal price. However, there is no assurance that coal prices will not increase in the future, and if the price does increase, there is no assurance that we will be able to adjust our power tariff to pass on the increase in the coal price in time. Although the government has established a coal-electricity price linkage mechanism to allow power generation companies to increase their power tariffs to cope with the increase in the coal price, the implementation of the mechanism involves uncertainties. For a detailed discussion of the coal-electricity price linkage mechanism, see “Item 4 Information on the Company – B. Business overview – Pricing policy”.

Power plant development, acquisition and construction are a complex and time-consuming process, the delay of which may negatively affect the implementation of our growth strategy

We develop, construct, manage and operate large power plants. Our success depends upon our ability to secure all required PRC Government approvals, power sales and dispatch agreements, construction contracts, fuel supply and transportation and electricity transmission arrangements. Delay or failure to secure any of these could increase cost or delay or prevent commercial operation of the affected power plant. Although each of our power plants in operation and the power plants under construction received all required PRC Government approvals in a timely fashion, no assurances can be given that all the future projects will receive approvals in a timely fashion or at all. In addition, due to national policies and related regulations promoting environment-friendly energy, the approval requirements and procedures for thermal power plant are becoming increasingly stringent, which may negatively affect the approval process of our new projects and therefore negatively affect the implementation of our growth strategy.

We have generally acted as, and intend to continue to act as, the general contractor for the construction of our power plants. As with any major infrastructure construction effort, the construction of a power plant involves many risks, including shortages of equipment, material and labor, labor disturbances, accidents, inclement weather, unforeseen engineering, environmental, geological, delays and other problems and unanticipated cost increases, any

of which could give rise to delays or cost overruns. Construction delays may result in loss of revenues. Failure to complete construction according to specifications may result in liabilities, decrease power plant efficiency, increase operating costs and reduce earnings. Although the construction of each of our power plants was completed on or ahead of schedule and within its budget, no assurance can be given that construction of future projects will be completed on schedule or within budget.

In addition, from time to time, we may acquire existing power plants from HIPDC, Huaneng Group or other parties. The timing and the likelihood of the consummation of any such acquisitions will depend, among other things, on our ability to obtain financing and relevant PRC Government approvals and to negotiate relevant agreements for terms acceptable to us.

Substantial capital is required for investing in or acquiring new power plants and failure to obtain capital on reasonable commercial terms will increase our finance cost and cause delay in our expansion plans

An important component of our growth strategy is to develop new power plants and acquire operating power plants and related development rights from HIPDC, Huaneng Group or other companies on commercially reasonable terms. Our ability to arrange financing and the cost of such financing depend on numerous factors, including general economic and capital market conditions, credit availability from banks or other lenders, investor confidence in us and the continued success of our power plants. Although we have not been materially affected by inflation in the past, there is no assurance that we would not be affected in the future. In 2015, the PBOC repeatedly cut down money market rate and reserve ratio to stabilize China's money supply. We expect that the PBOC will continue to implement a prudent monetary policy, with moderate and timely adjustments in 2016, which will help the Company to manage its financing costs. The interest bearing debts of the Company are mostly denominated in Renminbi, changes in benchmark lending interest rate published by the PBOC will have a direct impact on the Company's cost of debt. In the Singaporean capital market, the SOR interest rate will continue to rise as a result of increase in the interest rates for U.S. dollar denominated loan as well as depreciation of Singapore dollar, which will likely increase the financing costs of Tuas Power. The change of the benchmark lending interest rates published by the PBOC will have direct impact on the borrowing costs of the Company. As a result, we may not be able to carry out our expansion plans due to the failure to obtain financing or increased financing costs. Furthermore, although we have historically been able to obtain financing on terms acceptable to us, there can be no assurance that financing for future power plant developments and acquisitions will be available on terms acceptable to us or, in the event of an equity offering, that such offering will not result in substantial dilution to existing shareholders.

Operation of power plants involves many risks and we may not have enough insurance to cover the economic losses if any of our power plants’ ordinary operation is interrupted

The operation of power plants involves many risks and hazards, including breakdown, failure or substandard performance of equipment, improper installation or operation of equipment, labor disturbances, natural disasters, environmental hazards and industrial accidents. The occurrence of material operational problems, including but not limited to the above events, may adversely affect the profitability of a power plant.

Our power plants in the PRC currently maintain insurance coverage that is typical in the electric power industry in the PRC and in amounts that we believe to be adequate. Such insurance, however, may not provide adequate coverage in certain circumstances. In particular, in accordance with industry practice in the PRC, our power plants in the PRC do not generally maintain business interruption insurance, or any third party liability insurance other than that included in construction all-risks insurance or erection all-risks insurance to cover claims in respect of bodily injury or property or environment damage arising from accidents on our property or relating to our operation. Although each of our power plants has a good record of safe operation, there is no assurance that the afore-mentioned accidents will not occur in the future.

If the PRC Government adopts new and stricter environmental laws and additional capital expenditure is required for complying with such laws, the operation of our power plants may be adversely affected and we may be required to make more investment in compliance with these environmental laws

Most of our power plants, being coal-fired power plants, discharge pollutants into the environment. We are subject to central and local government environmental protection laws and regulations, which currently impose base-level discharge fees for various polluting substances and graduated schedules of fees for the discharge of waste substances. The amounts of discharge fees are determined by the local environmental protection authority based on the periodic inspection of the type and volume of pollution discharges. In addition, such environmental protection laws and regulations also set up the goal for the overall control on the discharge volume of key polluting substances. These laws and regulations impose fines for violations of laws, regulations or decrees and provide for the possible closure by the central government or local government of any power plant which fails to comply with orders requiring it to cease or cure certain activities causing environmental damage. Also, the PRC Government requires thermal power plants to equip all units with desulphurization and denitrification facilities, and sets higher antidust standards. In September 2014, the NDRC, the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the National Energy Administration jointly issued the 2014-2020 Action Plans for Energy Saving, Emission Reduction and Renovation of Coal-fired Generation Units, imposing stricter requirements for efficient and clean development of coal-fired generating plants. Such stringent standards, together with the increase in the discharge fees, will result in the increases in the environmental protection expenditure and operating costs of power plants and may have adverse impact on our operating results.

We attach great importance to the environmental related matters of our existing power plants and our power plants under construction. We have implemented a system that is designed to control pollution caused by our power plants, including the establishment of an environmental protection office at each power plant, adoption of relevant control and evaluation procedures and the installation of certain pollution control equipment. We believe our environmental protection systems and facilities for the power plants are adequate for us to comply with applicable central government and local government environmental protection laws and regulations. However, the PRC Government may impose new, stricter laws and regulations on environmental protection, which may adversely affect our operations.

The PRC is a party to the Framework Convention on Climate Change (“Climate Change Convention”), which is intended to limit or capture emissions of “greenhouse” gases, such as carbon dioxide. Ceilings on such emissions could limit the production of electricity from fossil fuels, particularly coal, or increase the costs of such production. At present, ceilings on the emissions of “greenhouse” gases have not been assigned to developing countries under the Climate Change Convention. Therefore, the Climate Change Convention would not have a major effect on us in the short term because the PRC as a developing country is not obligated to reduce its emissions of “greenhouse” gases at present, and the PRC Government has not adopted relevant control standards and policies. If the PRC were to agree to such ceilings, or otherwise reduce its reliance on coal-fired power plants, our business prospects could be adversely affected. In addition, pilot carbon emission trading programs have been conducted in certain regions and are expected to be gradually implemented throughout China. This may also adversely affect our business and financial prospects in the future.

Our business benefits from certain PRC Government tax incentives. Expiration of, or changes to, the incentives could adversely affect our operating results

Prior to January 1, 2008, according to the relevant income tax law, domestic enterprises were, in general, subject to statutory income tax of 33% (30% enterprise income tax and 3% local income tax). If these enterprises are located in certain specified locations or cities, or are specifically approved by State Administration of Taxation, a lower tax rate would be applied. Effective from January 1, 1999, in accordance with the practice notes on the PRC income tax laws applicable to foreign invested enterprises investing in energy and transportation infrastructure businesses, a reduced enterprise income tax rate of 15% (after the approval of State Administration of Taxation) was applicable across the country. We applied this rule to all of our wholly owned operating power plants after obtaining the approval of State Administration of Taxation. In addition, certain power plants were exempted from enterprise income tax for two years starting from the first profit-making year, after offsetting all tax losses carried forward

from the previous years (at most of five years), followed by a 50% reduction of the applicable tax rate for the next three years. The statutory income tax was assessed individually based on each of their results of operations.

On March 16, 2007, the Enterprise Income Tax Law of PRC, or the New Enterprise Income Tax Law, was enacted, and became effective on January 1, 2008. The New Enterprise Income Tax Law imposes a uniform income tax rate of 25% for domestic enterprises and foreign invested enterprises. Therefore, our power plants subject to a 33% income tax rate prior to January 1, 2008 are subject to a lower tax rate of 25% starting on January 1, 2008. With regard to our power plants entitled to a reduced enterprise income tax rate of 15% prior to January 1, 2008, their effective tax rate gradually increased to 25% within a five-year transition period commencing on January 1, 2008. Accordingly, the effective tax rate of our wholly owned power plants has increased over time. In addition, although our power plants entitled to tax exemption and reduction under the income tax laws and regulations that are effective prior to the New Enterprise Income Tax Law will continue to enjoy such preferential treatments until the expiration of the same, newly established power plants will not be able to benefit from such tax incentives, unless they can satisfy specific qualifications, if any, provided by then effective laws and regulations on preferential tax treatment.

The increase of applicable income tax rate and elimination of the preferential tax treatment with regard to certain of our power plants may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, our historical operating results may not be indicative of our operating results for future periods as a result of the expiration of the tax benefits currently available to us.

In addition, according to the New Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementation rules, any dividends derived from the distributable profits accumulated from January 1, 2008 and paid to the shareholders who are non-resident enterprises in the PRC will be subject to the PRC withholding tax at the rate of 10%. The withholding tax will be exempted if such dividends are derived from the distributable profits accumulated before January 1, 2008. Under a notice issued by the State Administration of Taxation of the PRC on November 6, 2008, we are required to withhold PRC income tax at the rate of 10% on annual dividends paid for 2008 and later years payable to our H Share investors who are non-resident enterprises.

Fluctuations in exchange rates could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and your investment

As a power producer operating mainly in China, we collect most of our revenues in Renminbi and have to convert Renminbi into foreign currencies to (i) repay some of our borrowings which are denominated in foreign currencies, (ii) purchase foreign made equipment and parts for repairs and maintenance, (iii) purchase fuel from overseas suppliers, and (iv) pay out dividend to our overseas shareholders.

The value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. The conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies, including U.S. dollars, is based on rates set by the PBOC. On July 21, 2005, the PRC government introduced a floating exchange rate system to allow the value of Renminbi to fluctuate within a regulated band based on market supply and demand and by reference to a basket of foreign currencies. Renminbi appreciated by more than 20% against the U.S. dollar between July 2005 and July 2008. Between July 2008 and June 2010, this appreciation halted and the exchange rate between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar remained within a narrow band. On June 19, 2010, the PBOC decided to further promote the reform of the Renminbi exchange rate formation mechanism, and improve the flexibility of Renminbi exchange rate. The Company and its subsidiaries (both domestic and overseas) have debts denominated in foreign currencies, fluctuations in the exchange rates of Renminbi and Singapore dollar into foreign currencies creates exchange risk for the Company. With the internationalization process and RMB joining the SDR, RMB exchange rate may continue to fluctuate in the future. In August 2015, the PBOC perfected its midpoint rate determination mechanism, which led to a 2% depreciation of Renminbi against the U.S. dollar. However, it is difficult to predict how market forces or PRC or U.S. government policy may impact the exchange rate between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar in the future. There remains significant international pressure on the PRC Government to further liberalize its currency policy, which could result in further fluctuations in the value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar. However, there is no assurance that there will not be a devaluation of Renminbi in the future. If there is such devaluation, our debt servicing cost will increase and the return to our overseas investors may decrease.

Our revenues from SinoSing Power Pte. Ltd. (“SinoSing Power”) and its subsidiaries are collected in Singapore dollars. However, commencing from 2008, the operating results of SinoSing Power and its subsidiaries were consolidated into our financial statements, which use Renminbi as the presentation currency. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange fluctuations between Renminbi and the Singapore dollar. Appreciation of Renminbi against the Singapore dollar may cause adverse impact on our operation results and foreign translation difference.

The audit report included in this annual report is prepared by an auditor who is not inspected by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and, as such, you are deprived of the benefits of such inspection

Auditors of companies that are registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and traded publicly in the United States, including our independent registered public accounting firm, must be registered with the U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “PCAOB”) and are required by the laws of the United States to undergo regular inspections by the PCAOB to assess their compliance with the laws of the United States and professional standards. Because we have substantial operations within the People’s Republic of China and the PCAOB is currently unable to conduct inspections of the work of our auditors as it relates to those operations without the approval of the Chinese authorities, our auditor’s work related to our operations in China is not currently inspected by the PCAOB. In May 2013, PCAOB announced that it had entered into a Memorandum of Understanding on Enforcement Cooperation with the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”) and the PRC Ministry of Finance, which establishes a cooperative framework between the parties for the production and exchange of audit documents relevant to investigations undertaken by PCAOB, the CSRC or the PRC Ministry of Finance in the United States and the PRC, respectively. PCAOB continues to be in discussions with the CSRC and the PRC Ministry of Finance to permit joint inspections in the PRC of audit firms that are registered with PCAOB and audit Chinese companies that trade on U.S. exchanges.

This lack of PCAOB inspections of audit work performed in China prevents the PCAOB from regularly evaluating audit work of any auditors that was performed in China including that performed by our auditors. As a result, investors may be deprived of the full benefits of PCAOB inspections. Investors may lose confidence in our reported financial information and procedures and the quality of our financial statements.

The Chinese member firm of the KPMG network, of which our independent registered public accounting firm is also a member, may be temporarily suspended from practicing before the SEC. If a delay in completion of our audit process occurs as a result, we could be unable to timely file certain reports with the SEC, which may lead to the delisting of our stock

On January 22, 2014, Judge Cameron Elliot, an SEC administrative law judge, issued an initial decision suspending the Chinese member firms of the “Big Four” accounting firms, including KPMG network, from, among other things, practicing before the SEC for six months. In February 2014, the initial decision was appealed. While under appeal and in February 2015, the Chinese member firms of “Big Four” accounting firms reached a settlement with the SEC. As part of the settlement, each of the Chinese member firms of “Big Four” accounting firms agreed to settlement terms that include a censure; undertakings to make a payment to the SEC; procedures and undertakings as to future requests for documents by the US SEC; and possible additional proceedings and remedies should those undertakings not be adhered to.

Our independent registered public accounting firm currently relies on the Chinese member firm of the KPMG network for assistance in completing the audit work associated with our operations in China. If the settlement terms are not adhered to, Chinese member firms of “Big Four” accounting firms may be suspended from practicing before the SEC which could in turn delay the timely filing of our financial statements with the SEC. In addition, it could be difficult for us to timely identify and engage another qualified independent auditor. A delinquency in our filings with the SEC may result in NYSE initiating delisting procedures, which could adversely harm our reputation and have other material adverse effects on our overall growth and prospect.

Forward-looking information may prove inaccurate

This document contains certain forward-looking statements and information relating to us that are based on the beliefs of our management as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to our management. When used in this document, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “going forward” and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, are intended to identify forward-looking statement. Such statements reflect the current views of our management with respect to future events and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including the risk factors described in this document. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein as anticipated, believed, estimated or expected. We do not intend to update these forward-looking statements.

There can be no assurance that we will not be passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for United States federal income tax purposes for any taxable year, which could subject United States investors in the ADSs or our H shares to significant adverse United States income tax consequences.

We will be a “passive foreign investment company,” or “PFIC,” if, in the case of any particular taxable year, either (a) 75% or more of our gross income for such year consists of certain types of “passive” income or (b) 50% or more of the average quarterly value of our assets (as determined on the basis of fair market value) during such year produce or are held for the production of passive income (the “asset test”). For United States federal income tax purposes, and based upon our income and assets, we do not believe that we were classified as a PFIC for the taxable year ended December 31, 2015, and do not anticipate becoming one in the forseeable future.

While we do not expect to become a PFIC, because the value of our assets for purposes of the asset test may be determined by reference to the market price of the ADSs, fluctuations in the market price of the ADSs may cause us to become a PFIC for the current or subsequent taxable years. The determination of whether we will be or become a PFIC will also depend, in part, on the composition of our income and assets. Under circumstances where we determine not to deploy significant amounts of cash for active purposes, our risk of being a PFIC may substantially increase. Because there are uncertainties in the application of the relevant rules and PFIC status is a factual determination made annually after the close of each taxable year, there can be no assurance that we will not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or any future taxable year.

If we are a PFIC in any taxable year, a U.S. holder (as defined in “Item 10. Additional Information—E. Taxation—United States federal income tax considerations”) may incur significantly increased United States income tax on gain recognized on the sale or other disposition of the ADSs or H shares and on the receipt of distributions on the ADSs or H shares to the extent such gain or distribution is treated as an “excess distribution” under the United States federal income tax rules and such holders may be subject to burdensome reporting requirements. Further, if we are a PFIC for any year during which a U.S. holder holds the ADSs or our H shares, we generally will continue to be treated as a PFIC for all succeeding years during which such U.S. holder holds the ADSs or our H shares. For more information see “Item 10. Additional Information—E. Taxation—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations.”

Risks relating to doing business in the PRC

China’s economic, political and social conditions as well as government policies could significantly affect our business

As of December 31, 2015, the majority of our business, assets and operations are located in China. The economy of China differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including government involvement, control of foreign exchange, and allocation of resources.

The economy of China has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy. After multiple years of strenuous and sustained economic restructuring reforms, China has become a leading player in the global economy and a major contributing force to the economic revival and growth worldwide.

The PRC Government has implemented economic reform measures emphasizing utilization of market forces in the development of the economy of China and a higher level of autonomy for the private sector. Some of these measures will benefit the overall economy of China, but may have a negative effect on us for a short term. For example, our operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected by changes in taxation, changes in power tariff for our power plants, changes in the usage and costs of State-controlled transportation services, and changes in State policies affecting the power industry.

Interpretation of PRC laws and regulations involves significant uncertainties

The PRC legal system is based on written statutes and their interpretation by the Supreme People’s Court. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited value as precedents.

We are subject to certain PRC regulations governing PRC companies that are listed overseas. These regulations contain certain provisions that are required to be included in the articles of association of these PRC companies and are intended to regulate the internal affairs of these companies. The PRC regulatory agencies are intensifying their efforts to protect interests of shareholders. We are listed in three exchanges. Given that each exchange and jurisdiction has different rules for shareholder protection, it is our policy to adopt the strictest standards of these listing rules. Some of these standards are incorporated in our articles of association and bylaws with the view to providing most protection for the interests of our shareholders.

Risks relating to our operations in Singapore

Our operations in Singapore are subject to a number of risks, including, among others, risks relating to electricity pricing, dispatching, fuel supply, project development, capital expenditure, environmental regulations, government policies, and Singapore’s economic, political and social conditions. Any of these risks could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Fluctuation in demand and intensified competition may adversely affect Tuas Power’s business and results of operations.

Our operations in Singapore depend on market demand and are subject to competition. Overall power system demand grew by 1% in 2015 over 2014. The future growth is highly dependent on sustained recovery in the Singapore and global economies. The liberalization of Singapore’s power market and the further deregulation of its power industry have resulted in more intense competition among the power generation companies in Singapore. Tuas Power Group, or Tuas Power, one of our wholly owned business units, is one of the three largest power generation companies in Singapore. If Tuas Power is unable to compete successfully against other power generation companies in Singapore, its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected. A newly constructed 400MW of new generating capacity by a new entrant entered commercial operation in the Singapore market in 2015. To enhance its competitiveness, Tuas Power itself had added 405.9MW of new generating capacity in 2013.

An electricity futures market was also established through an incentive scheme by the authority to market makers (MM) in the futures market. This has attracted independent retailers which are expected to exert some price competition in the retail market. A Demand Response (DR) scheme is currently being established which could potentially introduce further price competition in the wholesale generation market in Singapore.

TP Utilities Pte Ltd (“TPU”), an entity in Tuas Power Group, sells utilities, such as steam, industrial water and demineralized water to industrial customers for their direct consumption. The timing for those potential investors to site their premises is uncertain due to economic situations. The demand of the utilities by these customers may vary as well. Therefore, it is necessary for TPU to understand the customers’ demand and timing to arrive at a demand projection. The facilities will be developed in stages and/or in modules to provide sufficient capacity matching the demand. Customers are required to pay minimum capacity payment charges to mitigate the demand risk.

Regulatory changes of the vesting regime in Singapore could expose Tuas Power to electricity price volatility and adversely affect its business and results of operations

Tuas Power derives its revenue mainly from sale of electricity to the National Electricity Market of Singapore (the “NEMS”) through a bidding process and vesting contracts under which a significant portion of power sales is predetermined by the Energy Market Authority (“EMA”). The vesting contract regime in Singapore is targeted at mitigation of market power in the wholesale electricity spot market. The regime achieves this objective by assigning a quantity of vesting contracts to generating companies, thereby limiting their incentives to exercise whatever level of market power they may possess. Vesting contracts are a form of bilateral contract imposed/vested on the major power generation companies in Singapore. Vesting contract price is set by the EMA, which is Singapore’s power market regulator. Vesting contract price is set at the long run marginal cost of the most efficient base-loaded technology plant employed in Singapore and is reviewed every two years. On a quarterly basis, the EMA allows for the vesting contract price to be adjusted to account for inflation and changes in fuel prices. Such a mechanism helps protect the profit margins of the power generating companies in the Singapore market, such as Tuas Power, to a large degree. The quantity of each power generation company’s capacity reserved for vesting contracts depends on the proportion of such power generation company’s capacity to the total capacity in the NEMS system. A portion of the volume under the Vesting Contract Scheme has also been allocated to the LNG Vesting Scheme - an incentive scheme where players who have committed to an the initial tranche of LNG for Singapore are allocated electricity sale contracts. The contract quantity and price are recalculated every three months. By the end of 2015, the vesting contract has been rolled back to 25% of system demand (inclusive of the LNG Vesting Scheme). Following an appeal by some of the players in the market, the vesting contract level has been maintained at 25% for 2016. In addition, the EMA has been tasked by the Minister for Trade and Industry to conduct a comprehensive review of the vesting contract regime.

The fuel cost of Tuas Power is exposed to volatility of international fuel price and foreign currency risk

The fuel for Tuas Power consists of natural gas, coal, biomass, fuel oil and diesel oil. Since the procurement price of natural gas is closely linked to oil price and the procurement price of coal and biomass is linked to a coal index, the fuel cost of Tuas Power is exposed to the volatility of international oil and coal prices. In addition, the commitments for the purchase of fuel are denominated in U.S. dollars, which further exposes Tuas Power to foreign currency risk. Any increase in fuel price and/or appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Singapore dollar will translate into an increase in fuel cost for Tuas Power. Part of this increase can be passed through electricity sale contracts and utilities sale contracts, while fuel and foreign exchange hedging strategies done appropriately will mitigate the impact of such increase. No assurance can be given that such increase will not adversely affect results of its operation. Tuas Power is highly dependent upon the import of gas via pipelines from Indonesia. Any disruption of such supply would impact the normal operation of Tuas Power significantly. This risk has been mitigated through Tuas Power’s contract to buy LNG for its incremental needs, although there is no assurance that, in the event of fuel supply shortfall, Tuas Power’s operations will not be adversely affected. The rapid and sharp fall in the price of oil over the course of 2015 has resulted in wide variation in the price for its various sources of gas supply within the same month.

ITEM 4

Information on the Company

A.	History and development of the Company

Our legal and commercial name is Huaneng Power International, Inc. Our head office is at Huaneng Building, 6 Fuxingmennei Street, Xicheng District, Beijing, People’s Republic of China and our telephone number is (8610) 63226999. We were established in June 1994 as a company limited by shares organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China.

On April 19, 2006, we carried out the reform to convert all non-tradable domestic shares to tradable domestic shares. According to the reform plan, Huaneng Group and HIPDC offered three shares to each holder of A Shares for every ten shares held by them. The total number of shares offered in connection with the reform was 150,000,000 shares. As a result, all non-tradable domestic shares were permitted to be listed on the stock exchange for trading with certain selling restrictions. The period of selling restrictions is sixty months for the non-tradable shares held by Huaneng Group and HIPDC, and one year for most non-tradable shares held by others starting from

April 19, 2006. All such selling restrictions were released by April 19, 2011. The reform did not affect the rights of shareholders of our overseas listed foreign shares.

In 2010, we increased our share capital through non-public issuances of new shares, including A shares and H shares. With the approval from shareholders and relevant PRC governmental authorities, we were authorized to issue (i) not exceeding 1,500 million new A shares by way of placement to not more than 10 designated investors including Huaneng Group, which would subscribe for no more than 500 million new A shares, and (ii) no more than 500 million new H Shares to China Hua Neng Hong Kong Company Limited (“Hua Neng HK”). On December 23, 2010, we completed the non-public issuance of 1,500 million new A shares (ordinary shares with a par value of RMB1 per share) to 10 designated investors, including Huaneng Group, at the issuance price of RMB5.57 per share.

B.	Business overview

We are one of the China’s largest independent power producers. As of March 31, 2016, we had controlling generating capacity of 82,381MW, and a total generating capacity of 74,826 MW on an equity basis.

Operations in China

We are engaged in developing, constructing, operating and managing power plants throughout China. Our domestic power plants are located in 22 provinces, provincial-level municipalities and autonomous regions. We also have a wholly owned power company in Singapore.

In 2015, the Company actively responded to the new environment and new demand arising from the development of the power market, implemented and progressed the relevant work, maintained stable overall production safety and made efforts on cost control. The operating result of the Company reached a record high while the Company continued to fulfill the duties of providing sufficient, reliable and green power to the society.

In 2015, new generating units with a total installed capacity of 3,988 MW were put into operation. In 2015, our total domestic power generation from all operating power plants on a consolidated basis amounted to 320.529 billion kWh, representing a 8.9% increase from 2014. The annual average utilization hours of our generating units reached 4,147 hours. Our fuel cost per unit of power sold by domestic power plants decreased by 13.68% from the previous year to RMB 173.67 per MWh.

We believe our significant capability in the development and construction of power projects, as exemplified in the completion of our projects under construction ahead of schedule, and our experience gained in the successful acquisitions of power assets in recent years will enable us to take full advantage of the opportunities presented in China’s power market.

With respect to the acquisition or development of any project, we will consider, among other factors, changes in power market conditions, and adhere to prudent commercial principles in the evaluation of the feasibility of the project. In addition to business development strategies, we will continue to enhance our profit enhancement by relentlessly strengthening our cost control, especially in respect of fuel costs and construction costs, so as to hedge against fluctuations in fuel price and increase competitiveness in the power market.

Operations in Singapore

Tuas Power, one of our wholly owned business units, operates in Singapore and is engaged in the business of generation, wholesale and retail of power and other relating utilities. Tuas Power is comprised of Tuas Power Ltd (“TPL”), the investment holding company, and seven subsidiaries. Among those subsidiaries, Tuas Power Generation Pte. Ltd. (“TPG”) is the electricity generation company that owns 100% of Tuas Power Supply Pte Ltd (“TPS”), which is the retail arm of TPG. Separately, TPU, a wholly owned subsidiary of TPL is engaged in the business of production and supply of utilities to industrial customers at Tembusu, Jurong Island in Singapore, as well as the generation of electricity dispatched to the electricity wholesale market. We have consolidated Tuas Power’s results of operations since March 2008. The total assets and revenue of Singapore operations represented approximately 8.94% and 7.87%, respectively, of our consolidated total assets and revenue as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015. In 2015, the power generated by Tuas Power in Singapore accounted for 21.7% of the total power generated in Singapore, marginally lower than 2014.

Development of power plants

The process of identifying potential sites for power plants, obtaining government approvals, completing construction and commencing commercial operations is usually lengthy. However, because of our significant experience in developing and constructing power plants, we have been able to identify promising power plant projects and to obtain all required PRC Government approvals in a timely manner.

Opportunity identification and feasibility study

We initially identify an area in which additional electric power is needed by determining its existing installed capacity and projected demand for electric power. The initial assessment of a proposed power plant involves a preliminary feasibility study. The feasibility study examines the proposed power plant’s land use requirements, access to a power grid, fuel supply arrangements, availability of water, local requirements for permits and licenses and the ability of potential customers to afford the proposed power tariff. To determine projected demand, factors such as economic growth, population growth and industrial expansion are used. To gauge the expected supply of electricity, the capacities of existing plants and plants under construction or development are studied.

Approval process

Prior to July 2004, any project proposal and supporting documents for new power plants had to first be submitted to the NDRC for approval and then be submitted to the State Council. In July 2004, the State Council of the PRC reformed the fixed asset investment regulatory system in China. Under the new system, new projects in the electric power industry that do not use government funds will no longer be subject to the examination and approval procedure. Instead, they will only be subject to a confirmation and registration process. Coal-fired projects will be subject to confirmation by the NDRC. Wind power projects with installed capacity of 50 MW or above shall be subject to confirmation and registration with the relevant department of the central government, while wind power projects with installed capacity lower than 50 MW shall be subject to confirmation and registration with relevant local government departments. Wind power projects confirmed by local government departments at provincial level shall also be filed with the NDRC and China National Energy Administration.

In November 2014, pursuant to the Catalogue of Investment Projects Approved by the Government (2014 Version) issued by the State Council, administrative approval power for certain activities in the energy sector has been delegated to a lower level. The administrative approval power for thermal power stations has been delegated to the provincial level (with coal-fired thermal power station projects being subject to national-level administrative approval based on state-promulgated constructions plans limited by total volume), the administrative approval power for heat power stations has been delegated to the local level (with condensing steam heat power station projects being subject to provincial-level administrative approval based on state-promulgated constructions plans limited by total volume), and the administrative approval power for wind power plants delegated to the local level subject to state-promulgated constructions plans limited by total volume as well as the scope as set out in the annual developmental guides. The Interim Measures for Supervision and Administration of Photovoltaic Power Station Projects issued by China National Energy Administration in 2013 requires that photovoltaic power station projects be regulated by on a filing-based system by the provincial-level energy supervisory departments in accordance with regulations related to investment projects issued by the State Council.

Joint venture power projects are subject to additional governmental approvals. Approval by Ministry of Commerce is also required when foreign investment is involved.

From 2014, China National Energy Administation has placed stringent control on coal-fired projects within the Beijing-Tianjian-Hebei region, the Yangtze River Delta Region and the Pearl River Delta Region. All new coal –fired generating projects, other than those involving co-generation, were prohibited from being approved. Multi coal-fired generating units with a total capacity of more than 300 MWh may be reconstructed into large capacity units based on the principles of equivalent replacement for coal but reduction in replacement pollutant emission.

Permits and contracts

In developing a new power plant, we and third parties are required to obtain permits before commencement of the project. Such permits include operating licenses and similar approvals related to plant site, land use, construction, and environment. To encourage the cooperation and support of the local governments of the localities of the power plants, it has been and will be our policy to seek investment in such power plants by the relevant local governments.

Power plant construction

We have generally acted as the general contractor for the construction of our power plants. Equipment procurement and installation, site preparation and civil works are subcontracted to domestic and foreign subcontractors through a competitive bidding process. All of our power plants were completed on or ahead of schedule, enabling certain units to enter service and begin generating income earlier than the estimated in-service date.

Import duties

Under the relevant PRC laws and regulations, foreign invested enterprises (“FIE”), will be entitled to import duty exemption in respect of self-use imported equipment and raw materials for investment projects that fall into the encouraged category under the Catalogue for the Guidance of Foreign Investment Industries (the “Catalogue”). Pursuant to the current Catalogue, effective on January 30, 2012, construction and operation of power stations using integrated gasification combined cycle, circulating fluidized bed with a generating capacity of 300MW or above, pressurized fluidized bed combustor with a generating capacity of 100MW or above and other clean combustion technologies belong to the category of encouraged projects. Therefore, all of our construction projects that meet the conditions for encouraged projects under the current catalogue are eligible for import-duty exemption for imported generating units.

Pursuant to the Interim Rules to Promote Structural Adjustment of Industries issued in December 2005 and Guidance Catalogue for Structural Adjustment of Industries effective on June 1, 2011, our power plants construction projects with independent legal person status belonging to an encouraged category of investments are eligible for exemption from import duty and related value-added tax with regard to the imported equipments used in such projects, subject to the approval of the relevant government authorities.

Plant start-up and operation

We have historically operated and intend to continue to operate our power plants. Our power plants have established management structures based on modern management techniques. We select the superintendent for a new power plant from the senior management of our operating plants early in the construction phase of the new plant, invest in the training of operational personnel, adopt management techniques that improve efficiency and structure our plant bonus program to reward efficient and cost-effective operation of the plant in order to ensure the safety, stability and high availability factor of each power plant. Our senior management meets several times a year with the superintendents of the power plants as a group, fostering a team approach to operations, and conducts annual plant performance reviews with the appropriate superintendent, during which opportunities to enhance the power plant’s performance and profitability are evaluated.

After a coal-fired generating unit is constructed, the contractor tests its installation and systems. Following such tests, the contractor puts the unit through a continuous 168-hour trial run at full load. After successfully passing the continuous 168-hour test and obtaining approval from the local governments, the unit may commence its commercial operation. Trial run of a wind power project consists of two phases: (i) trial run of single wind power generating unit and (ii) trial run of the entire wind power project as a whole. After successfully passing the trial run, the wind power project may commence its commercial operation.

Development of Power Plants in Singapore

The Singapore electricity industry had traditionally been vertically integrated and owned by the government. Since 1995, steps have been taken to liberalize the power industry, including the incorporation of the Public Utilities Board (“PUB”) in 1995, establishment of Singapore Electricity Pool (“SEP”) in 1998, formation of Energy Market Authority (“EMA”) in 2001, and the evolvement of the SEP into the New Electricity Market of Singapore (“NEMS”) in 2003. The EMA is a statutory body responsible for the economic, technical and competition regulation of the gas and electricity industry in Singapore. In carrying out its functions as the regulator of the power sector, EMA is empowered under the Electricity Act to issue and enforce licenses, codes of practices and performance standards. Energy Market Company Pte Ltd. (the “EMC”) is the market company licensed to operate the wholesale market, or the NEMS.

In Singapore, a company is required to hold a generation license issued by the EMA if it generates electricity by means of one or more generating units with capacity of 10 MW or above. If connected to the power grid, the generating unit(s) must be registered with the EMC and will have to compete with other power generation companies to secure dispatch in the NEMS.

To ensure adequate electricity supply in Singapore, the EMA targets a minimum reserve margin (the excess of generating capacity over peak electricity demand) of 30% based on a loss of load probability (a measure of the probability that a system demand will exceed capacity during a given period, often expressed as the estimated number of days over a year) of three days per year. The 30% required reserve margin is to cater for scheduled maintenance as well as forced outages of generating units in the system. If the reserve margin falls below the required 30% due to demand growth and/or plant retirements, it would be an indication that new generation investments in generation units are needed to maintain system security.

The EMA intends to keep the increase and decrease in generating capacity commercially driven as far as practicable. As a precaution against the risk of insufficient generating capacity in the system to maintain system security, the EMA has planned to put in place a capacity assurance scheme to incentivize new generation planting in case new generating capacity that is required to maintain system security is not forthcoming from the market. EMA has not provided any update to the proposed scheme but given the current oversupply of capacity, it is not anticipated that the scheme will be put into place anytime soon.

By most measures of market power, the Singapore market is highly concentrated, as the three largest power generation companies account for approximately 70% of total power capacity. It is therefore unlikely that the EMA will allow the three largest power generation companies to increase their licensed capacity and these generation companies will have to rely on the optimization of their existing capacity within license capacities to improve efficiency and forestall any new entrant.

New entrants as well as existing competitors have invested in new generating capacity or repowering of existing plants to take advantage of the LNG Vesting Scheme. This will impact the market negatively as these new capacities compete for market share as well as to avoid the take-or-pay penalties arising out of an oversupplied market.

In late 2015, EMA released a consultation paper on “Preparing for Future Power Generation Investments in Singapore”. In it, EMA stated its intention to provide information on the long term outlook of the energy market, proposed enhancements to the regulatory approval process for new and existing generation assets to give greater visibility on the capacity coming on-stream, and proposed a framework to allocate land for new generation assets.

We are in the process of developing the Tembusu Multi-Utilities Complex (the “TMUC”) in Singapore. The TMUC is expected to consist of a co¬generation plant, a desalination plant and a wastewater treatment facility, with a total installed capacity of 165 MW. The complex will be developed in multiple phases in order to meet customers’ demand. Phase 1 consists of 1 x 450 t/h coal-biomass co-fired circulated fluidized bed boiler, 2 x 200 t/h diesel/natural gas fired boilers and 1 x 101MW steam turbine-generator, and other components of the plant. Phase 2A consists of 1 x 450 t/h coal-biomass co-fired circulated fluidized bed boiler, 1 x 200 t/h diesel/natural gas fired boiler and 1 x 32MW steam turbine-generator, and other components of plant. Phase 1 and Phase IIA commenced commercial operations in March 2013 and June 2014 respectively. The first train of 62.5 m³/h wastewater treatment facility commenced commercial operation in September 2015. TPL owns 100% equity interest in this project.

Pricing policy

Pricing policy in China

Prior to April 2001, the on-grid tariffs for our planned output were designed to enable us to recover all operating and debt servicing costs and to earn a fixed rate of return. Since April 2001, however, the PRC Government has gradually implemented a new on-grid tariff-setting mechanism based on the operating terms of power plants as well as the average costs of comparable power plants.

On July 3, 2003, the State Council approved the tariff reform plan and made it clear that the long-term objective of the reform is to establish a standardized and transparent tariff-setting mechanism.

Pursuant to the NDRC circular issued in June 2004, on-grid tariffs for newly built power generating units commencing operation from June 2004 should be set on the basis of the average cost of comparable units adding tax and reasonable return in the regional grid. It provides challenges and incentives for power generation companies to control costs for building new generating units.

On March 28, 2005, the NDRC issued the Interim Measures on Regulation of On-grid Tariff, the Interim Measures on Regulation of Transmission and Distribution Tariff, and the Interim Measures on Regulation of End-user Tariff, or collectively the “Interim Measures”, to provide guidance for the reform of tariff-setting mechanism in the transition period. Under the Interim Measures, tariff is classified into on-grid tariff, transmission and distribution tariff and end-user tariff. Transmission and distribution tariff will be instituted by the government. End-user tariff will be based on on-grid tariff and transmission and distribution tariff. The government is responsible for regulating and supervising power tariffs based on the principles of promoting efficiency, encouraging investment and improving affordability.

In December 2004, the NDRC proposed and the State Council approved the establishment of a linkage mechanism between coal and power prices, pursuant to which, the NDRC may adjust power tariffs if the change of the average coal price reaches 5% within a period of six months compared with the preceding same period. The change in a period, if less than 5%, will be carried forward to the future periods until the accumulated amounts reach 5%. With a goal to encourage power generation companies to reduce cost and improve efficiency, only around 70% of coal price increases will be allowed to pass to end-users through an increase of power tariffs, and power generation companies will bear the remaining 30%. In May 2005, the NDRC activated the coal-electricity price linkage mechanism for the first time to increase on-grid tariffs and end-user tariffs in the northeastern region, central region, eastern region, northwestern region and southern region. We accordingly increased the on-grid tariffs of our power plants in the northeastern region, central region, eastern region and northwestern region on May 1, 2005 and in the southern region on July 15, 2005. In June 2006, the coal-electricity price linkage mechanism was reactivated by the NDRC to increase on-grid tariffs and end-user tariffs in the northeastern region, central region, eastern region, northwestern region and southern region. We accordingly increased the on-grid tariffs of most of our power plants in the same regions on June 30, 2006.

In May 2007, NDRC and the State Environment Protection Administration jointly promulgated Interim Administrative Measures on Electricity Price of Coal-fired Generating Units installed with Desulphurization Facilities and the Operations of Such Facilities, which provided that a premium for desulphurization may be charged on the price of the electricity generated by generating units installed with desulphurization facilities on and from the date on which such desulphurization facilities are tested and accepted by a relevant environment protection regulator. Such pricing policy is also applicable to the old generating units which are installed with desulphurization facilities. The new measures are more stringent on the regulation of the coal-fired power plants with desulphurization facilities, setting forth the categories under which the price including a desulphurization premium will be offset or otherwise penalized based on the ratio of utilization of the relevant desulphurization facilities on an annual basis. As of December 31, 2013, all of our existing coal-fired generating units have installed and operated the desulphurization facilities and enjoyed the desulphurization premium.

In June 2008, NDRC issued Notice of Raising the Power Tariff, pursuant to which, the power tariff in provincial grids nationwide was increased by an average of RMB0.025 per kWh. In August 2008, NDRC issued Notice of Raising the On-grid Tariffs of the Thermal Power Plants, pursuant to which, the on-grid tariff of thermal power plants, including plants fueled by coal, oil, gas and co-generation, was increased by an average of RMB0.02 per kWh.

On February 25, 2009, NDRC, SERC and China National Energy Administration jointly promulgated the Notice regarding Cleaning up the Concessional Tariff Scheme, pursuant to which, (i) the concessional tariff scheme at the local level is banned, and (ii) certain measures, such as direct purchase by large end-users and adopting peak and off-peak power pricing policy, will be carried out to reduce enterprises’ power cost. In addition, the notice emphasizes the supervision and inspection over the setting of power tariffs. On October 11, 2009, in order to promote a fair market condition and the optimization of electric power resources, NDRC, SERC and China National Energy Administration jointly promulgated the Circular on Regulating the Administration of Electric Power Transaction Tariff to regulate the tariff-setting mechanism for the on-grid tariff, transmission and distribution tariff and end-user tariff and clean up the local preferential power tariffs provided to high energy consumption companies. Pursuant to a notice issued by NDRC, with effect from November 20, 2009, certain adjustments on the on-grids tariffs have been made in various regions of China in order to resolve the inconsistencies in tariffs, rationalize the tariff structure and promote the development of renewable energy.

In 2010, the PRC Government started to implement the direct power purchase policy. As of December 31, 2013, some of the provinces where we operate power plants are approved by the NDRC to implement the direct power purchase by large power end-users. In addition, during 2010 SERC issued several circulars and notices to regulate the trans-provincial and interregional transaction of power and/or power generation right, in which the power purchase price shall be freely determined by negotiation through market pricing mechanism. In December 2012, SERC issued another circular to further regulate the trans-provincial and interregional transaction of power and/or power generation right.

In May 2011, NDRC issued a notice, increasing the on-grid tariffs of thermal power plants to partially compensate the increased costs incurred by thermal power plants resulting from increases in coal prices. Different adjustments on tariffs were made in different provinces. In November 2011, PRC Government made further nationwide adjustments on power tariffs, including an average of RMB0.026 per kWh increase in on-grid tariff for thermal power plants. In December 2012, NDRC issued a notice, which provided that, from January 1, 2013, NDRC would provide a RMB0.008 per kWh denitrification premium for all coal-fired generating units equipped with denitrification facilities that are inspected and accepted by authorized national or provincial authority.

In March 2012, the PRC Government issued a notice, which mandated the confirmation method for the power generation projects, subsidy standards and fund appropriation standards relating to the application for subsidy for renewable energy power price of power generation projects. In December 2012, the PRC Government issued the Notice on the Guidelines of Enhancing the Reform of Marketization of Coal Used for Power Generation to further reform the coal pricing mechanism. Effective January 1, 2013, all key coal purchase contracts between power generation companies and coal suppliers were terminated and contracts are directly negotiated between power generation companies and coal suppliers without the interference of local governments. According to the notice, the NDRC will no longer issue inter-provincial guidance on the railway transportation capacity plan. In addition, the dual-track coal pricing system, which included the government regulated mandatory annual contract pricing and spot market prices for the remaining coal production output of each coal supplier, was abolished due to the narrowing gap between the government regulated coal contract price and the spot market price. Pursuant to the notice, future coal contract prices will be determined by the market and freely negotiated between power generation companies and coal suppliers. Furthermore, the coal-electricity price linkage mechanism will continue to be implemented and constantly improved. Once the coal price fluctuates for more than 5% on an annual basis, on-grid tariff would be adjusted accordingly. The notice also mandates that power generation companies absorb 10% of the coal price fluctuations as compared to 30% prior to 2013. Given the narrow gap between the key contract coal price and the spot market price, the overall on-grid tariff was not adjusted.

In September 2013, NDRC issued the Notice on the Adjustment of Power Tariff for Power Generation Companies and Related Matters, pursuant to which the on-grid tariffs for coal-fired generating units were lowered, by a national average of RMB0.013 per kWh, and the on-grid tariff for gas turbine power plants were slightly increased. The Notice also increased the power tariff for power-generating companies that are equipped with denitrification facilities and dust-removal facilities.

In March 2014, the NDRC and the Ministry of Environmental Protection jointly issued the Measures to Monitor the Operation of Environmental Protection Tariffs and Facilities Regarding Coal-fired Generating Units, under which the standard on-grid electricity tariff incorporating environmental protection element will no longer be applicable to coal-fired generating units unless the coal-fired power generating enterprise has completed renovation for environmental protection acceptable after testing. In August 2014, the NDRC issue the Notice to Further Resolve Conflicts Regarding Environmental Protection Tariff, under which the standard on-grid tariff for coal-fired power generating units is lowered with the view to resolve the environmental protection tariffs conflicts such as denitrification and dedusting of coal-fired power generation enterprises, and setting the tariff subsidy for denitrification and dedusting at RMB0.01/kWh and RMB0.002/kWh, respectively. In December 2014, the NDRC issued the Notice Regarding Adjusting Standard On-grid Tariff for Onshore Wind Powers, under which the standard on-grid tariff for each of Class I, Class II and Class III wind powers is lowered by RMB0.02, and the tariff for Class IV wind power remain unchanged at RMB0.61/kWh. In December 2014, the NDRC issued the Notice Regarding Certain issues of On-grid Tariff of Natural Gas Powers, defining the principles to formulate and modify the tariff of electricity generated by natural gas, aiming to regulate on-grid tariff administration and used facilitate healthy and orderly growth of natural gas power generating sector in China.

In April 2015, the NDRC issued the Notice on Reducing On-grid Tariff for Coal-fired Power and Commercial and Industrial Power Tariff in order to release the pressure on tariffs for natural gas and for companies that utilize denitration or dedusting techniques or with extremely low emissions, to lower commercial and industrial power tariff, and to moderately lower on-grid tariff for coal-fired power, the power tariff in provincial grids nationwide was decreased by an average of RMB0.02 per kWh.

In December 2015, the NDRC issued the Notice on Issues of Perfecting the Mechanism of Coal-electricity Price Linkage, confirming the annual cycle of the mechanism, the NDRC’s leading role in implementing the mechanism, and provinces and cities’ executor role in implementing the mechanism. The coal-electricity prices with which the mechanism of coal-electricity price linkage is in line are indexed to the national thermal coal price index. The benchmark coal price is the provincial average price in China’s thermal coal price index of 2014. And the benchmark tariff is in principle the on-grid tariff in line with the benchmark coal price. The tariff adjustment may be triggered after the annual review based on the calculations according to the formula given by Policy of the Mechanism of Coal-electricity Price Linkage. Also in December 2015, the NDRC issued the Notice on Reducing On-grid Tariff for Coal-fired Power and General Commercial and Industrial Power Tariff, which ordered a decrease of national on-grid tariffs for coal power and general commercial and industrial power tariff by an average of RMB0.03 per kWh, based on the relevant regulations prescribed in the mechanism of coal-electricity price linkage. In the same month of 2015, the NDRC also issued the Notice on Improving On-grid Tariff Policy for Wind Power and Photovoltaic Power, which established a policy that the benchmark on-grid tariffs for wind power and photovoltaic power decrease in line with the development of these two types of power plants. To further indicate the investment expectation, the Notice confirmed the benchmark on-grid tariffs for wind power of 2016 and 2018. The 2016 benchmark on-grid tariff for photovoltaic power has been confirmed, yet that of 2017 and onward will be confirmed at a later stage.

In terms of power tariff for wind power projects, pursuant to the applicable policies and regulations, the PRC is categorized into four wind-resource zones, and the onshore wind power projects approved after August 1, 2009 and in the same zone are subject to the same standard on-grid tariff applicable to that zone. In addition, the power grid companies are generally required to purchase all of the electricity generated by wind power generating units.

Pricing Policy in Singapore

Pricing Policy of Electricity in Singapore

All licensed power plants in Singapore sell their plant output into the NEMS under a half-hourly competitive bidding process, during which a clearing price is determined based on the projected system demand. All successful bids/power plants that are cleared in each half hour will be dispatched automatically by control signals from the Power System Operator, a division of the EMA, and in turn will receive the cleared price as determined earlier. The cleared price paid to the power plants is the nodal price at their point of injection, and the Market Clearing Engine, the computer software that creates dispatch schedules and determines market clearing prices, automatically produces a different price at each node on the network. A Demand Response scheme is being introduced where demand could be curtailed in response to high prices in return for a share of the total savings arising out of lower prices as a result of demand being reduced.

As there is no certainty in the price or the dispatch levels for any power plants, operators of power plants may enter into short- or long-term financial arrangements with other counterparties or their own subsidiary company involved in the electricity retail market (to end consumers of electricity) to secure stability in their revenue stream and manage the commercial risks associated with operations in a competitive market.

In addition, the major power generation companies, including Tuas Power, are obliged to hold vesting contracts. Vesting contracts are a form of bilateral contract imposed/vested on the generation companies who had been licensed by the EMA before the establishment of NEMS. Market Support Services Licensee is the counterparty to all of the vesting contracts, and the vesting contracts are settled between the parties through the EMC’s settlement system. The quantity of each power generation company’s capacity covered by vesting contracts depends on the proportion of its capacity to total capacity in the NEMS system. Vesting contract price is set by the EMA at the long-run marginal cost and is adjusted by the EMA on a periodic basis for changes in the long-run marginal cost and on a quarterly basis for inflation and changes in fuel prices. Such mechanism helps protect the profit margins of the power generation companies in the Singapore market to a large degree. The contract quantity and price are currently recalculated every three months. The existing Vesting Contract Scheme has been reduced to an intermediate level of 30% of system demand in first half of 2015 and 25% in second half of 2015 (from 40% in 2014). Following an appeal by some of the players in the market, the vesting contract level has been maintained at 25% for 2016 (instead of the originally intended 20%). In addition, the EMA has been tasked by the Minister to conduct a comprehensive review of the vesting contract regime. This translates into increased exposure to a more volatile pool price. The authority is further considering introducing a demand response scheme where loads can choose to participate in peak load shaving and share in part of the consumer surplus. An Electricity Futures Market is also being contemplated. Going forward, we intend to monitor and evaluate the impact of such market on our business.

The gross pool design adopted in NEMS means all quantity sold by retailers to contestable consumers (currently defined as customers with average monthly usage more than of 4,000kWh) has to be in turn purchased from the pool. The retailers pay for their electricity purchases at the Uniform Singapore Energy Price, which is a weighted average of nodal prices and is determined on a half-hourly basis in the NEMS.

Pricing Policy of Utilities in Singapore

Utilities supply to industrial customers is based on long-term contracts. The pricing of utilities has both fixed and variable components.

Power sales

Each of our power plants has entered into a written agreement with the local grid companies for the sales of its planned power output. Generally, the agreement has a fixed term of one year and provides that the annual utilization hours of the power plant will be determined with reference to the average annual utilization hours of the similar generating units connected to the same grid.

In 2003, SERC and the State Administration of Commerce and Industry jointly promulgated a model contract form (the “Model Contract Form”) for use by power grid companies and power generation companies in connection with electricity sale and purchase transactions. The Model Contract Form contains provisions on the

parties’ rights and obligations, amount of electricity subject to purchase, payment method and liabilities for breach of contract, etc. We believe that the publication of the Model Contract Form has facilitated the negotiation and execution of electricity purchase contracts between power grid companies and power generation companies in a fair, transparent and efficient manner. In 2015, a majority of the agreements entered into between our power plants and the local grid companies were based on the Model Contract Form.

From 2008, with the purpose of improving energy usage efficiency, the government implemented an optimized-dispatch electricity policy in some provinces in China, as a result of which, the utilization hours of low energy consumption and low pollution generating units have been improved. We believe that our large generating units with high efficiency and low emission are competitive in the market.

The PRC Government started in 1999 to experiment with a program to effect power sales through competitive bidding in some provinces. Furthermore, the PRC Government started in 2009 to experiment with a program for direct power purchase by large power end-users, and has promulgated relevant rules governing the price and method of direct power purchase transactions as well as the market entrance and exit mechanism. In accordance with the above policies, we are conducting research on the program for direct power purchases by large power end-users. In July 2013, China National Energy Administration issued the Notice on Direct Purchases between Power End-users and Power Generation Companies, which officially implemented the direct purchases programs by large end-users. Among the provinces where we operate our power plants, seven of them, namely Shanxi, Jiangsu, Henan, Hunan, Guangdong, Fujian, and Gansu, started the direct purchase program in 2013, and four of them, namely Jiangxi, Yunnan, Hubei and Liaoning, are actively promoting the direct purchase pilot program. In 2014, the programs were also implemented in Zhejiang and Anhui. In addition to these regions, the direct purchase program by large end-users was also implemented in Liaoning, Jiangxi, Hubei and Chongqing in 2015.

In general, establishing liberalized power markets may be the general trend in China’s power market reform, which is conducive to creating a competition environment that is fair, transparent and equitable.

The following table sets forth the average power tariff (RMB/MWh) of electric power sold by our power plants in China, for each of the five years ended December 31 through 2015 and the approved power tariff for 2016.

Power sales in Singapore

According to the latest available update from EMA, the total licensed capacity in commercial operation for the first quarter of 2015 in Singapore was 12,889 MW. In 2015, the peak demand for electricity was 6,696 MW against 2014’s 6,849MW. The power market in Singapore is competitive, and power generation companies compete to sell their power output into NEMS through a bidding process with hedging via vesting contracts and retail sales. At the end of December 31, 2015, power sold through vesting contracts represented approximately 25% of total system demand. The existing Vesting Contract Scheme will be maintained at 25% of system demand for 2016. EMA has been tasked by the Minister to do a comprehensive review of the Vesting Regime. The decrease in allocated vsting contract volumes will have to be made up through increased retail sales, or otherwise, be translated into increased exposure to more volatile pool prices.

The volatility in the sales price of the revenue associated with the sale of electricity in the NEMS is effectively managed via vesting contracts and direct retail sales which is carried out through a Tuas Power’s subsidiary. The effective tariffs Tuas Power received for its electricity output is thus largely dependent on the vesting contract prices and volumes as well as prices secured under retail sales. The Minister has also indicated the year of 2018 for the start of Full Retail Contestability.

Utility sales in Singapore

In 2015, TMUC sold 1,988,927 MT of steam to customers, representing an increase of 9% as compared to 1,824,638 MT in 2014.

Fuel supply arrangements

In 2015, the majority of our power plants were fueled by coal, gas and oil.

Coal

Our coal supply for our coal-fired power plants is mainly obtained from numerous coal producers in Shanxi Province, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and Gansu Province. We also obtain coal from overseas suppliers.

For past years, as part of its efforts to make a transition from a comprehensive planned economy to a “socialist market economy”, the PRC has experimented with a variety of methods of setting coal prices. In 1996, the government allowed coal prices to fluctuate within a range around a reference price for coal allocated under the State Plan to be used in electricity generation, and set maximum allowable prices in various coal-producing areas for coal used in electricity generation.

From 2002 to 2003, there was no longer an official State Plan for coal supplies, but the government continued to coordinate the coal prices at the annual national coal purchase conferences attended by, among others, representatives of each of power companies, coal suppliers, and the railway authorities and sponsored and coordinated by NDRC. Power companies obtain allocations for coal on a plant-by-plant basis. Each of the power plants then signs supply contracts with the coal suppliers, and with the railway and shipping companies for the amount of coal and transportation allocated to them. From 2004 to 2008, although such annual coal purchase conferences continue to be held, only key contracts are negotiated and executed at such conferences. Starting from 2009, in furtherance of the coal purchase reform, NDRC ceased to coordinate annual coal purchase conference and took measures to reduce government’s involvement in the coal supply negotiation. NDRC will no longer make allocation of coal supply to power companies, but instead will consolidate and publish overall framework for the coal demand and supply. The price and amount of coal supply will be determined based on the free negotiation between power companies, coal suppliers, and the railway authorities.

In 2011, the average coal price increased significantly. We purchased 144.72 million tons of coal and consumed 144.07 million tons of coal. In 2011, we adjusted the thresholds of key contracts in accordance with the NDRC’s catalogue and criteria. Of our total coal purchases, 26.13% was purchased under the key contracts and the remainder was purchased in the open market. The coal purchase price for our Company, including transportation costs and miscellaneous expenses, averaged approximately RMB637.22 per ton. Our average unit fuel cost in 2011 increased by 9.24% from that in 2010.

In 2012, the average coal price decreased significantly. We purchased 133.47 million tons of coal and consumed 133.93 million tons of coal. Of our total coal purchases, 28.1% was purchased under the key contracts and the remainder was purchased in the open market. The coal purchase price for our Company, including transportation costs and miscellaneous expenses, averaged approximately RMB598.27 per ton. Our average unit fuel cost in 2012 decreased by 7.6% from that in 2011.

In December 2012, the PRC Government issued a notice to further reform coal price, which mandated (1) the termination of all key coal purchase contracts between power generation companies and coal suppliers under the guidance of railway transportation capacity plan, and (2) the termination of the dual pricing system for coal pricing, from the beginning of 2013.

In 2013, as a result of the termination of the key contracts, coal prices in PRC fluctuated wildly. The Bohai-Rim Steam Coal Price Index (“BSPI”) decreased from RMB633 per ton in the beginning of 2013 to RMB530 per ton in early October 2013, and increased again to RMB631 per ton by the end of 2013. The coal purchase price for our Company, including transportation costs and miscellaneous expenses, averaged approximately RMB531.37 per ton. Our average unit fuel cost in 2013 decreased by 12.5% from that in 2012

In 2014, the average coal purchase price decreased significantly while the quality of the purchased coals saw marked improvement. We purchased 120.7 million tons of coal and consumed a total of 134.9 million tons of coal. Of our total coal purchases, 52% was purchased under annual contracting arrangements, and the remainder was purchased in the open market. The coal purchase price for our Company, including transportation costs and miscellaneous expenses, averaged approximately RMB494.86 per ton in 2014. Our average unit fuel cost in 2014 decreased by 7.96% from that in 2013.

In 2015, the average coal purchasing price decreased significantly from the previous year. We purchased 130.56 million tons of coal and consumed 132.12 million tons of coal. Of our total coal purchases, 48% was purchased under annual contracting arrangements and the remainder was purchased in the open market.

The coal purchase price for our Company, including transportation costs and miscellaneous expenses, averaged approximately RMB408.71 per ton in 2015. Our average unit fuel cost in 2015 decreased by 13.68% from that in 2014.

Singapore’s Tuas Power used coal as primary fuel for its TMUC’s cogeneration plants. Coal is procured from coal producers in Indonesia via two long-term coal supply contracts with 10 years and 15 years term respectively. The prices are indexed to the Global Coal Newcastle Index.

Also, the Tuas Power in Singapore has five gas-fired combined cycle generating units and three gas-fired backup boilers. The piped gas for Tuas Power is provided by Pavilion Gas Pte Ltd and Sembcorp Gas Pte Ltd., whereas LNG is provided by BG Singapore Gas Marketing Pte Ltd.

Oil

Tuas Power maintains operation of one 600 MW oil-fired steam generating unit. The oil supply for Tuas Power is purchased from the open market. With the increased competition from new gas-fired CCPs, fuel oil consumption is expected to be marginal at best and therefore future purchases, if any, will be on a spot basis. Diesel, as backup fuel for oil-fired unites, is also purchased on a spot basis.

Repairs and maintenance

Each of our power plants has a timetable for routine maintenance, regular inspections and repairs. Such timetables and the procedures for the repairs and maintenance of generating units comply with the relevant regulations promulgated by the former Ministry of Electricity Power.

Pursuant to our procedures, generating units are currently operating on a cycle of four to six years. In each cycle, there are four different levels of maintenance:

(i)

regular checks and routine maintenance are carried out throughout the period during which generating unit is in operation;

(ii)

a small-scale servicing is performed every year, which takes approximately 20 days;

(iii)

a medium-scale check-up is carried out between the two overhauls, the length of which depends on the actual condition of the generating unit at the time of the check-up and the inspections and improvements to be carried out; and

(iv)

a full-scale overhaul is conducted at the end of each operating cycle, which takes approximately 60 days.

C.	Organizational structure

We are 33.33% owned by HIPDC, which in turn is a subsidiary of Huaneng Group. Huaneng Group was established in 1988 with the approval of the State Council. Huaneng Group also holds a 13.83% equity interest in us besides HIPDC. In 2002, Huaneng Group was restructured as one of the five independent power generation group companies to take over the power generation assets originally belonging to the State Power Corporation of China. Huaneng Group has a registered capital of RMB20 billion and is controlled and managed by the central government. Huaneng Group is principally engaged in development, investment, construction, operation and management of power plants; organizing the generation and sale of power (and heat); and the development, investment, construction, production and sale of products in relation to energy, transportation, new energy and environmental protection industries.

HIPDC was established in 1985 as a joint venture controlled by Huaneng Group. HIPDC is engaged in developing, investing, operating and constructing power plants in China. Some of the power plants currently owned and operated by us were originally built and later transferred to us by HIPDC. Both Huaneng Group and HIPDC have agreed to give us preferential rights in the power development business and power assets transfers. See “Item 7.A. Major shareholders” for details.

The following organizational chart sets forth the organizational structure of HIPDC and us as of March 31, 2016:

___________________________________________

Notes:

Huaneng Group indirectly holds 100% equity interests in Pro-Power Investment Limited through its wholly owned subsidiary, China Hua Neng Hong Kong Company Limited, and Pro-Power Investment Limited in turn holds 25% equity interests in HIPDC. As a result, Huaneng Group indirectly holds additional 25% equity interests in HIPDC.

Of the 13.83% equity interest, 10.23% was directly held by Huaneng Group, 3.11% was held by Huaneng Group through its wholly owned subsidiary, China Hua Neng Hong Kong Company Limited, and the remaining approximately 0.49% was held by Huaneng Group through its subsidiary, China Huaneng Finance Corporation Limited.

For a detailed discussion of the Company’s subsidiaries, see Note 9 to the Financial Statements.

Competition and Dispatch

All power plants in China are subject to dispatch conducted by various dispatch centers. A dispatch center is required to dispatch electricity pursuant to the Regulations on the Administration of Electric Power Dispatch Networks and Grids, issued by the State Council with effect from November 1, 1993, and in accordance with its agreements with power plants subject to its dispatch. Power generation companies are also required to enter into on-grid dispatch agreements with power grid companies. As a result, there is competition for favorable dispatch treatment in the PRC electric power industry, especially during the off-peak load periods. More efficient power plants usually operate at higher output than less efficient power plants. We believe that in order to increase system stability, large and efficient power plants such as ours will be preferred as base load plants to generate power for the grids to which they connect. We believe that our dispatch arrangements with the local power corporations and dispatch centers, superior quality equipment, lower coal consumption rate, higher efficiency of plant operation, lower emission levels and larger capacity represent competitive advantages in the markets in which we operate.

Since 2002, we have been facing competition from four other major power generation groups: China Power Investment Corporation, China Huadian Power Corporation, China Guodian Power Corporation and China Datang Power Corporation, which were created following the break-up of the former State Electric Corporation in 2002. Although we were not affected by this reform measure, as we have developed good working relationship with the dispatch centers and the relevant government departments in the areas where our power plants are located, there can be no assurance that such good working relationships will not be adversely affected as more power generation companies compete for favorable dispatch treatment.

As power generation companies were separated from power grid companies and more competitors entered into the market, the SERC issued the Interim Measures Regarding Promotion of Openness, Fairness and Equitableness of Power Dispatch, requiring power dispatch centers to treat all competitors indiscriminately in respect of dispatch administration and information disclosure, except in cases where safe and stable operation of the electric power system requires different treatment.

In 2008, with the purpose of improving energy usage efficiency, the government implemented an electricity-optimized dispatch policy in Henan Province, Sichuan Province, Jiangsu Province, Guangdong Province and Guizhou Province on a pilot basis, and plans to roll out to others if the trial operation is successful. In addition, as of December 31, 2014, in all regions in which we operate power plants, the government’s power administrative departments make power generation plan policies with the aim to improve the planned utilization hours of the environment-protecting and energy-saving units. In 2015, the NDRC and China Energy Administration jointly issued the Guidelines on Improving Electric Power Operations and Deepening Clean Energy Generation, which confirms a system that aims to ensure the full-priced acquisitions of renewable energy and ensure that the hours of usage for high-efficiency energy-saving generators be significantly higher than that for coal-fired generators. And the Guidelines also demands within a certain time period an increase of the hours of usage for coal-fired generators, of which the emission level is close to or reaches the cap level of gas turbine.

Competition and Dispatch in Singapore

Following the introduction of LNG into Singapore, new players as well as incumbents have invested in new gas-fired generating capacities to compete in the Singapore electricity market. Tuas Power competes in the NEMS using its portfolio of gas-fired, coal-biomass fired and oil-fired generating units. It was able to maintain a market share of approximately 21.69% in the NEMS for 2015. Its major competitors include Senoko Energy (formerly Senoko Power) which is owned by a Japanese/French consortium led by Marubeni Group, YTL PowerSeraya that is owned by YTL Group of Malaysia, SembCorp Cogen and Keppel Merlimau Cogen and PacificLight Power Pte Ltd. A new entrant, Tuaspring, entered the market in 2015. Tuas Power’s investment in its new combined cycle will allow it to maintain its leadership position in Singapore’s power industry.

In the NEMS, power generation companies compete to generate and sell electricity every half-hour by offering their capacity (specifying price/quantity pairs). The EMC, the operator of Singapore’s wholesale electricity market, determines the least-cost dispatch quantities and the corresponding market-clearing or spot prices based on the offers made by power generation companies. The spot prices in the NEMS reflect the least-cost market solution for the dispatch of energy and provision of operating reserves. In general, this means that each power generation company that submitted an offer below the spot price will be dispatched, and a power generation company that submitted an offer above the spot price will not be dispatched. The spot price that a power generation company receives is a nodal price, which may vary according to their location on the network to reflect the cost of transmission losses or network constraints.

Environmental Regulation

We are subject to the PRC Environmental Protection Law, the regulations of the State Council issued thereunder, the PRC Law on the Prevention and Treatment of Water Pollution, the PRC Law on the Prevention and Treatment of Air Pollution, the Emission Standard of Air Pollutants for Thermal Power Plants thereunder and the PRC Law on Ocean Environment Protection (collectively the “National Environmental Laws”) and the environmental rules promulgated by the Local Governments in whose jurisdictions our various power plants are located (the “Local Environmental Rules”). According to the National Environmental Laws, the State Environmental Protection Bureau sets national environmental protection standards and local environmental protection bureaus may set stricter local standards. Enterprises are required to comply with the stricter of the two standards.

At present, new projects are subject to the environmental evaluation approval. The project proposal is required to be submitted to the State Environmental Protection Administration (“SEPA”) for approval.

Effective July 1, 2003, all power plants in China became subject to the pollutant discharge levy system, pursuant to which discharge fees are levied based on the actual amount of pollutants discharged. As a result, all of our power plants are now required to pay discharge fees in such manner. Since 2008, certain provinces have raised the rates of waste disposal fees. In 2013, 2014 and 2015, we paid to the local governments total discharge fees of approximately RMB475 million, RMB387 million and RMB311 million respectively.

In 2011, the PRC Government promulgated a New Emission Standards of Air Pollutants for Thermal Power Plants, which implement more stringent standards on discharge of polluting substances by thermal power plants. These restrictive standards govern both the total sulfur dioxide and nitrous oxide emissions from the power plant and the emission density of each chimney, and also require thermal power plants to equip all units with denitrification facilities by the end of 2015.

In September 2013, the State Council issued the Air Pollution Prevention Action Plan (the “Plan”), setting forth stricter requirements for air pollution prevention and control. Local government departments have released local rules and regulations under the Plan, some of which require higher emission standards than the national ones. Carbon emission trading has been conducted in certain regions on a trial basis and could be gradually introduced to an expanded market in the future. On July 1, 2014, the new pollutants emission standards for thermal power plants and the dust emission standards in key regions will also come into effect. In September 2014, the NDRC, the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the National Energy Administration jointly issued the 2014-2020 Action Plan for Energy Saving, Emission Reduction and Renovation of Coal-fired Generation Units, imposing more strict requirements for efficient and clean development of coal-fired generating plants.

In order to meet with the requirements of the New Emission Standards, we have installed flue gas desulphurization (“FGD”) facilities and denitrification facilities with all of our newly constructed generating units. We have also carried out sulfur disposal reform on the existing generating units. As of the end of 2012, we have installed and operated desulphurization facilities on all our existing coal-fired generating units. By the end of 2014, all coal-fired generating units of the Company have been renovated to include denetrification facilities.

In order to reduce fly ash, we use very high-efficiency electrostatic precipitators and conduct efficiency improvement and renovations according to increasingly strict state and local emission standards. Each power plant is also equipped with a wastewater treatment facility to treat water used by the power plant before it is released into the river or the sea. We pay discharge fees on the basis of measurements made at discharge points of each plant where waste is released. All of the disposal equipment and facilities for sulfur dioxide, fly ash, wastewater, nitrogen oxides, smoke dust and noise in our existing power plants completely satisfy the existing national standards.

We believe we have implemented systems that are adequate to control environmental pollution caused by our facilities. In addition to the measures identified above, each power plant has its own environment protection office and staff responsible for monitoring and operating the environmental protection equipment. The environmental protection departments of the local governments monitor the level of emissions and base their fee assessments on the results of their tests.

We believe our environmental protection systems and facilities for the power plants are adequate for us to comply with the currently effective national and local environmental protection regulations. It is expected that the PRC Government will impose additional and stricter regulations to implement the emission plan which would require additional expenditure in compliance with environmental regulations.

Environmental Regulation in Singapore

Tuas Power’s generation operations are subjected to Singapore’s Environmental Protection and Management Act and Environmental Public Health Act. The former sets out requirements pertaining to control of pollution and management of hazardous substance while the latter focuses mainly on proper waste management.

Tuas Power Station

To address the environmental concerns and regulatory requirements, Tuas Power Station has put in place an environmental management system. All generating units are equipped with pollution control facilities.

Stage II combined-cycle plants burn natural gas and are fitted with low-nitrogen oxide burners to control nitrogen oxide emissions. Source emission test are conducted annually and the results are submitted to National Environment Agency (NEA) Pollution Control Department.

Tuas Power Station has a dedicated wastewater treatment plant to treat its oily wastewater and process wastewater prior to discharge into the sea. The treatment processes are automated to prevent accidental adverse discharge and critical parameters are monitored on a real-time basis. Trade effluent testing is performed annually and the results are shared with the Pollution Control Department.

Land contamination is prevented through well-designed storage and containment procedures. Specific areas for storage of waste and hazardous substances are designated within the power plant.

Waste generated in Tuas Power Station plants is identified and managed accordingly. Waste with residual value, such as waste oil, is resold to licensed collectors for reuse while other waste is disposed through licensed disposal contractors.

Hazardous substances which have potential to cause environmental pollution are controlled within the power plant compound. A-hazardous substance permit, issued by the Pollution Control Department, is required to store the hazardous substances in the premises. Operators who handle these chemicals are competent and the storage concept of these substances is designed to prevent and mitigate the impact of any abnormal release. Regular audits are conducted to ensure these hazardous substances are managed properly and the findings and recommendations for improvements are reported to the Pollution Control Department.

The TMUC plant is designed to comply with stringent environmental standards set by the local authority. TMUC adopts the circulating fluidized bed boiler technology that enable use of high percentage of carbon neutral biomass (palm kernel shell and woodchips) co-fired with clean coal (low sulphur and low ash) to reduce carbon footprint significantly to the same level as oil-fired plant and lower the sulphur and nitrogen oxides emission. High efficiency bag filters are installed to ensure low particulates emission.

Coal, biomass and ash handling, transfer and storage systems at TMUC are fully enclosed to prevent any fugitive dust during unloading, storage and handling operation. Coal and ash are stored in silo while biomass is stored in enclosed warehouse.

Fly ash and bed ash generated from the CFB boilers are fully recycled and processed for use as value-added construction materials.

Oily wastewater and coal/ash washing wastewater are treated prior to discharge. Online monitoring of oil-in-water and suspended solids (through turbidity meter) are carried out for oily wastewater and coal/ash washing wastewater respectively to prevent accidental discharge. Chemical/regeneration wastewater is neutralized prior to discharge. Online monitoring of pH is conducted to prevent accidental discharge. Stop-gates are strategically installed at drain to prevent poor quality effluent/water from entering the sea

Insurance

We currently maintain property all-risks insurance and machinery-breakdown insurance for all of our power plants, and construction all-risks insurance or erection all-risks insurance for all of our newly built and expansion projects as well as large-scaled upgrading projects. Our current insurance coverage on our property, plant and equipment (including construction all-risk insurance and excluding those properties, plants and equipment in Shandong Province, Gansu Province and Diandong Energy) is mainly maintained with Yongcheng Property and Casualty Insurance Company, and co-insured by PICC Property and Casualty Company Ltd. and China Pacific Property Insurance Co., Ltd., which amounted to approximately RMB429.05 billion. In 2015, we renewed the liabilities insurance for our directors and officers with a coverage of US$10 million.

We do not maintain any third-party liability insurance to cover claims in respect of bodily injury or property or environment damage arising from accidents on our property or relating to our operation other than the third-party additional risk insurance included in construction all-risk insurance or erection all-risk insurance. We do not usually carry business interruption insurance either, which is not customarily carried by power companies in the PRC. We believe that our insurance coverage is adequate and is standard for the power industry in China. Please refer to the section entitled “Risk factors – Risks relating to our business and the PRC’s power industry – Operation of power plants involves many risks and we may not have enough insurance to cover the economic losses if any of our power plant’s ordinary operation is interrupted.”

Tuas Power purchases key insurance policies, such as industrial all-risks insurance (including business interruption insurance coverage), public and products liability insurance, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, pollution legal liability insurance and marine cargo insurance. Total insured value under industril all-risks insurance is S$4.3 billion for 2016.

Critical accounting policies

The Company and its subsidiaries have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations. The impact of and any associated risks related to these policies on the business operations are discussed throughout the Operating and Financial Reviews and Prospects where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results. For a detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 2 to the Financial Statements in Item 18 of this Annual Report on Form 20-F. Note that our preparation of this Annual Report on Form 20-F requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is provided based on book value of assets less estimated residual value over estimated useful life using a straight-line method. For the impaired property, plant and equipment, depreciation is provided based on book value after deducting the impairment provision over estimated useful life of assets. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

		2015
Dam		8 – 50 years
Port facilities		20 – 40 years
Buildings		8 – 30 years
Electric utility plant in service		5 – 30 years
Transportation facilities		8 – 27 years
Others		5 – 14 years

Where parts of an item of property, plant or equipment have different useful lives, the cost of the item is allocated on a reasonable basis between the parts and each part is depreciated separately. At the end of each year, the Company and its subsidiaries review the estimated useful life, residual value and the depreciation method of the property, plant and equipment and make adjustment when necessary.

Useful life of power generation license

The Company and its subsidiaries acquired the power generation license as part of the business combination with Tuas Power. The power generation license is initially recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. The license has an indefinite useful life and is not amortized. The assessment that the license has an indefinite useful life is based on the expected renewal of power generation license without significant restriction and cost, together with the consideration on related future cash flows generated and the expectation of continuous operations. It is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment loss. Useful life of the power generation license is reviewed by the Company and its subsidiaries each financial period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support the indefinite useful life assessment.

Impairment of non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets with definite useful lives, land use rights, mining rights and long-term equity investments not accounted for as financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually regardless of whether there are indications of impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit (“CGU”) exceeds its recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less cost to sell. For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs.

Subject to an operating segment ceiling test, CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are aggregated so that the level at which impairment testing is performed reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes.

Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU (group of CGUs), and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU (group of CGUs) on a pro rata basis, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its individual fair value less costs of disposal (if measurable) or value in use (if determinable).

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. Except for goodwill, all impaired non-financial assets are subject to review for possible reversal of impairment at each reporting date. A reversal of an impairment loss is limited to the asset’s carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized in prior year. Reversals of impairment losses are credited to profit or loss in the year in which the reversals are recognized.

Principal accounting policies

Except as described below, the principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those applied in the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 described in those annual financial statements.

The Company and its subsidiaries have adopted the following new amendments to standards that are first effective for the current accounting period:

Note:

The total amount of power generation in 2014 does not include amount of power generation from Newly Acquired Entities.

The Company’s growth of power generation within China mainly originated from the capacity contribution from the Newly Acquired Entities and power plants newly put into production. The main reasons for the decrease in some of the Company’s power plants are as follows: firstly, as a result of the slowdown of the economy and the deepening of China’s economic restructuring, nation-wide electricity consumption in China declined, which led to the decrease of utilization hours. Secondly, the commencement of operations of multiple West-to-East UHV transmission lines has squeezed the generation potential of thermal power generators in the coastal regions in southeastern China. Thirdly, the lower temperature in summer 2015 resulted in lower electricity demand for cooling, while the heating demand in winter also failed to increase significantly. Fourthly, the commencement of operation of many nuclear power units in Liaoning, Zhejiang, Fujian and other provinces reduced the power output of the thermal power generating units in such regions. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the accumulated power generation of Tuas Power Ltd., the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary in Singapore, accounted for a market share of 21.7% in Singapore, representing a decrease of 0.1% compared to the same period last year of 21.8%.

In respect of the tariff, the Company’s average tariff of domestic power plants for the year ended December 31, 2015 was RMB443.26 per MWh, down by RMB11.69 per MWh from the year ended December 31, 2014. SinoSing Power’s average tariff for 2015 was RMB625.88 per MWh, representing a decrease of 32.02% from the same period last year.

In respect of fuel costs, the decrease of coal market price and effective cost control of the Company contributed to reduced fuel costs of the Company. Compared with 2014, the Company’s domestic fuel cost per unit of power sold decreased by 13.68% to RMB173.67 per MWh.

Combining the foregoing factors, for the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company registered operating revenue of RMB128.905 billion, representing an increase of 2.79% from RMB125.407 billion of last year, and net profit attributable to equity holders of RMB13.652 billion, representing an increase of 26.91% from RMB10.757 billion of last year.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company from domestic operations was RMB13.711 billion, representing an increase of RMB3.082 billion from RMB10.629 billion for the same period last year. The increase was primarily attributable to the decrease of domestic fuel costs and the profits contributed by the Newly Acquired Entities and the operation of new generating units. The loss attributable to equity holders of the Company from its operations in Singapore was RMB59 million. This is because of the continued oversupply in Singapore’s power market as result of commenced operations of many generators during the recent years, which led to a continued reduction of local power tariff and significantly decreased the profit margin per unit of power sold.

Operating revenue and tax and levies on operations

Operating revenue mainly consists of revenue from electricity sold. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the consolidated operating revenue of the Company and its subsidiaries amounted to RMB128.905 billion, representing an increase of 2.79% from RMB125.407 billion for the year ended December 31, 2014. The operating revenue from domestic operations of the Company increased by RMB7.725 billion over the same period of last year, while the operating revenue from the Newly Acquired Entities and the operation of new generating units was RMB21.228 billion.

The operating revenue from operations of the Company in Singapore decreased by RMB4.227 billion over the same period of last year, which was mainly attributable to the continued oversupply in Singpore’s power market, which has led to continued decline of the profit margin per unit of power sold.

The following table sets forth the average tariff rate of the Company’s power plants, as well as percentage changes from 2014 to 2015.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company’s total power generation on a consolidated basis amounted to 304.869 billion kWh, of which, the domestic power generation of the Company amounted to 294.388 billion kWh, representing a decrease of 7.27% year-on-year. Total electricity sold by the Company’s power plants within China was 277.538 billion kWh, representing a decrease of 7.49% over the same period last year.

The main reasons for the decrease in the Company’s power output are as follows: firstly, China’s economic growth slowed in 2014 and power consumption growth nationwide declined correspondingly. Secondly, the commencement of operation of a number of ultra-high voltage west-to-east power transmission lines in China reduced the power market for thermal power generating units in the southeast coastal regions where a high proportion of thermal power generating units owned the Company are located. Thirdly, most of China experienced a sharp decrease of temperature during the summer in 2014 compared with the same period of 2013 and an increase in rainfall, thus resulting in a lower demand for electricity and a significant decline in power output compared with the higher number registered in 2013. Fourthly, 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 market for thermal power generating units in Yunnan Province as well as Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Guangdong. Meanwhile, power output from thermal power generating

units in Liaoning and Fujian were affected by the commencement of operation of large nuclear generating units in these two provinces.

Major financial position ratios

	2015		2014
Current ratio		0.27		0.36
Quick ratio		0.23		0.30
Ratio of liability to shareholders’ equity		2.46		2.71

Multiples of interest earned	3.55	3.21

Formula of the financial ratios:
Current ratio = balance of current assets as of the year end / balance of current liabilities as of the year end
Quick ratio = (balance of current assets as of the year end – net inventories as of the year end) / balance of current liabilities as of the year end
Ratio of liabilities to shareholders' equity = balance of liabilities as of the year end / balance of shareholders' equity (excluding non-controlling interests) as of the year end

E.	Trend information

The major trend of the electricity power market

It is predicted by China Electricity Council that, in 2016, total electricity consumption nationwide will grow by 1% to 2% and 2016 will see newly installed generating capacity of approximately 100 million KW, of which non-petrochemical energy capacity is 52 million kW, representing a higher percentage to around 36% of the total installed capacity; the full-aperture installed capacity nationwide is expected to reach 1.61 billion kW, an 6.5% increase compared to that of 2014, of which capacity for hydropower, nuclear power, wind power and solar power is 330 million kW, 34.5 million kW, 150 million kW and 57 million kW respectively.

In 2016, electricity supply and demand in China will generally be easing, with abundant surplus capacity in Northeast and Northwest region, balanced supply and demand in Northern region where several provinces are abundant, and broadly balanced supply in Central, Eastern, and Southern regions, where a number of provinces are abundant. Based on the mid-value of the growth rate of total electricity consumption ranging from 1% to 2%, in 2016 the annual power generation utilization hours are expected to be around 3,700 hours, and the utilization hours of thermal generating equipment are estimated to be 4,000 hours.

The trend of the fuel supply

2016 will likely see a slow growth in China’s economy and slow demand for electric power. The utilization hours of thermal power will further drop and the oversupply situation in coal industry will likely remain unchanged, and airfreight and railway capacity will likely remain loose. However, the coal market still has uncertainties: the government will set out to carry out “Supply Side” reform to reduce overcapacity and cut down “zombie enterprises” and such potential negative fluctuation in the coal supply will likely bring certain degree of risks to the fuel cost control.

The Company will closely monitor the changes in policies and coal market, enhance its cooperation with competitive major mines, continuously explore new sourcing channels, conduct bidding of existing commodities, perfect the imported coal business, strengthen the refining management of the fuel and strive to control fuel costs.

The trend of capital market and foreign exchange

The interest-bearing debts of the Company are mostly denominated in RMB. The interest rates applicable to RMB loan contracts will be determined and regularly adjusted based on the adjustment of benchmark lending interest rates published by the PBOC. The PBOC will continue to exercise a stable and elastic moderate currency policy, which will help reduce financing costs of the Company.

In the Singaporean capital market, the SOR interest rate will continue to rise as a result of increase of US dollar lending rates as well as depreciation of Singapore dollar, which is anticipated to increase the financing costs of Tuas Power.

We will closely watch the changes in domestic and overseas capital marketsand maintain its good reputation on the capital markets, make reasonable financing arrangements, explore new financing methods, and strive to control financing costs.

K.	Impairment sensitivity analysis

Goodwill impairment

The Company and its subsidiaries conducts impairment test on each individually goodwill at the end of each year. In 2015, due to continuous operating loss of the power plant assets as a result of oversupply of local power market and intense competition which led to lower utilization hours and tariff, and the effect of deteriorating coal market price on the coal assets under construction, the goodwill arising from the acquisition of Diandong Energy was fully impaired based on the impairment testing result. The above mentioned goodwill impairment provided in 2015 approximately amounted to RMB1.106 billion in total.

For goodwill allocated to CGUs in the PRC, changes of assumptions in tariff and fuel price could have affected the results of goodwill impairment assessment. As of December 31, 2015, if tariff had decreased by 1% or 5% from management’s estimates with other variables constant with the expectations, the Company and its subsidiaries would have to further recognize impairment against goodwill by approximately RMB14 million and RMB180 million, respectively. If fuel price had increased by 1% or 5% from the management’s estimates with other variables constant with the expectations, the Company and its subsidiaries would have to further recognize impairment against goodwill by approximately RMB11 million and approximately RMB59 million, respectively.

Impairment of property, plant and equipment and mining rights

The Company and its subsidiaries test its property, plant and equipment and mining rights suffered any impairment whenever any impairment indication exists.

In 2015, impairment losses for certain property, plant and equipment and mining rights of approximately RMB1.808 billion have been recognized. Factors leading to the impairment of operating projects primarily included lower utilization hours and tariff of two coal-fired power plants as a result of oversupply of electricity in two provinces, as well as low utilization hours of a hydropower plant as a result of the low level of water inflow to the main dam. And as a result of the low demand of coal-fired power in local market, the management estimated the possibility of further development of a coalfired power project was remote, therefore the project under construction was fully impaired.

Changes of assumptions in tariff and fuel price will affect the result of property, plant and equipment and mining rights impairment assessment. For power plants assets that are subject to impairment testing, as at December 31, 2015, if tariff had decreased by 1% or 5% from management’s estimates with other variables constant with the expectations, the Company and its subsidiaries would have to further recognize impairment against property, plant and equipment by approximately RMB224 million and RMB1,566 million, respectively. If fuel price had increased by 1% or 5% from the management’s estimates with other variables constant with the expectations, the impairment against property, plant and equipment and mining rights of the Company and its subsidiaries would decrease totalling by approximately RMB112 million and RMB54 million, respectively.

L.	Prospects for 2016

In 2016, the Company will further enhance its market awareness, reformation awareness, innovation awareness and risk awareness. Under the guidance of China’s “Thirteenth Five-Year Plan”, we will attach more emphasis on market competition, green development and standardized management, in an effort to constantly improve the profitability, competitiveness and sustainable development of the Company.

With respect to the power market, the Company will further serve the market by increasing revenue and enhancing efficiency, actively taking part in market competition and participating in the development of the electricity market. With an aim to increase our market share and efficiency, we will strive for a leading position in the region in terms of utilization hours benchmarking. We will strive to achieve power generation of 315 billion kWh and 3,950 utilization hours in China for the year 2016.

We do not have any service contract with any director that provides for benefits upon termination of employment. In 2014, no option was granted to the directors or the supervisors.

Employees

As of December 31, 2015, we have 42,039 employees. Of these, 290 are headquarters management staff, 11,339 are power plant personnel directly involved in the management and operation of the power plants, and the remainder are maintenance personnel, ancillary service workers and others. Over 72% our work force graduated from university or technical college. As of December 31, 2013 and 2014, we had approximately 37,729 and 37,737 employees, respectively.

We conduct continuing education programs for our employees at our head office and at each power plant. We provide training in foreign language, computer, accounting and other areas to our professionals and technicians in their relevant fields. Employees are trained in accordance with the different requirements for professional and managerial positions.

Our labor force is employed through individual labor contracts. Currently, all employees are employed under labor contracts, which specify the employee’s position, responsibilities, remuneration and grounds for termination. Short-term labor contracts have fixed terms of typically one to five years, at the end of which they may be renewed by agreement of both the Company and the employee.

The contract system imposes discipline, provides incentives to adopt better work methods, and provides us with a greater degree of management control over our work force. We believe that, by linking remuneration to productivity, the contract system has also improved employee morale.

Each of our power plants has a trade union and the employees of our headquarters are also members of a trade union. These trade unions protect employees’ rights, aim to fulfill our economic objectives, encourage employees to participate in management decisions and mediate disputes between us and union members. We have not been subject to any strikes or other labor disturbances interfering with our operations, and we believe that our relationships with our employees are good.

Total remuneration of our employees includes salaries, bonuses and allowances. The employees also receive certain benefits in the form of education and health services subsidized by the Company and other miscellaneous subsidies.

In compliance with the relevant regulations, we and our employees participate in the local government pension plan under which all the employees are entitled to pension payments upon retirement. See Note 34 to the Financial Statements.

The Company also participates in the social insurance program administered by the social security institution, under which all employees are entitled to certain social insurance benefits, subject to adjustments in accordance with relevant PRC regulations. The Company is in compliance with all social insurance regulations and has no overdue obligations for any social insurance contribution.

E.	Share ownership

None of our directors, supervisors or senior management owns any of our shares.

ITEM 7

Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions

A.	Major shareholders

Our outstanding ordinary shares consist of A Shares and H Shares, each with a par value of RMB1.00 per share. The following table sets forth certain information regarding our major shareholders as of March 31, 2016.

Shareholder	Number of shares		Approximate percentage in the total issued domestic share capital %			Approximate percentage in the total issued share capital %
Huaneng International Power Development Corporation		5,066,662,118		48.25			33.33

___________________________________________

Notes:

(1)	Of the 1,629,264,402 shares, 74,139,853 domestic shares through its controlling subsidiary, Huaneng Finance Corporation Limited.

(2)	472,000,000 shares are H shares and represent 10.04% of the total issued H shares of the Company and 3.11% of the total issued share capital of the Company.

In 2006, all of our shareholders of non-tradable domestic shares except HIPDC transferred a total of approximately 1.1 billion shares to Huaneng Group, representing 9.24% of our total issued shares. Among others, HPCIC transferred approximately 301 million shares to Huaneng Group, and decreased its shareholdings in the Company to 5.00%.

On April 19, 2006, we carried out our reform plan to convert all non-tradable domestic shares into tradable domestic shares. According to the plan, Huaneng Group and HIPDC transferred a total of 150 million A Shares to our shareholders. As a result, the direct shareholdings of Huaneng Group and HIPDC decreased to 8.75% and 42.03%, respectively.

In June and July of 2008, through its wholly owned subsidiary, China Hua Neng Hong Kong Company Limited, Huaneng Group acquired 20 million H shares from the open market. As a result, the shareholding of Huaneng Group increased to 8.92%.

In 2010, we increased our share capital through non-public issuances of new shares, including A shares and H shares. With the approval of shareholders and relevant PRC governmental authorities, we were authorized to issue (i) not exceeding 1,500 million new A shares by way of placement to not more than 10 designated investors, including Huaneng Group, which would subscribe for no more than 500 million new A shares, and (ii) no more than 500 million new H Shares to China Hua Neng Hong Kong Company Limited (“Hua Neng HK”). On December 23, 2010, we completed the non-public issuance of 1,500 million new A shares (ordinary shares with a par value of RMB1 per share) to 10 designated investors, including Huaneng Group, at the issuance price of RMB5.57 per share. The shares subscribed by Huaneng Group are subject to a lock-up period of 36 months.

100

On December 28, 2010, we completed the placement of 500 million H shares (ordinary shares with a par value of RMB1 per share) to Hua Neng HK at the subscription price of HK$4.73 per share.

On November 13, 2014, we completed placement of 365 million H Shares at the price of HK$8.60 per share.

On November 20, 2015, we completed placement of 780 million H Shares at the price of HK$7.32 per share.

Before we were established in 1994, HIPDC and seven other promoters entered into the Shareholders’ Agreement dated May 31, 1994 (the “Shareholders’ Agreement”) which, among other things, grants to HIPDC the right to vote all the shares owned by each of the other promoters so as to enable HIPDC to have majority voting rights in general meetings for so long as we are in existence. In addition, directors designated by HIPDC will have majority representation on our board of directors and each of the other promoters will have one representative designated by it appointed as a member of our board of directors. The Shareholders’ Agreement also provides that for so long as we are in existence (i) HIPDC and the other signatories to the Shareholders’ Agreement will maintain their combined shareholdings to ensure their collective majority control of the Company, (ii) HIPDC has certain priority rights to purchase the shares held by the other signatories to the Shareholders’ Agreement, (iii) if HIPDC does not exercise its priority rights to purchase such shares, each of the signatories to the Shareholders’ Agreement other than HIPDC shall have a priority right to purchase such shares on a pro rata basis, and (iv) no shares may be sold or transferred unless their transferees agree to abide by the terms of the Shareholders’ Agreement. As a result of the Shareholders’ Agreement, HIPDC holds 70.09% of the total voting rights of the outstanding shares and, subject to the Shareholders’ Agreement, has the power to control the election of all of our directors and to direct our management and policies.

On May 12, 2006, HIPDC and other promoters (including the shareholders who assumed the rights and obligations of original promoters as a result of share transfer) entered into an amendment to the Shareholders’ Agreement, pursuant to which each promoter shall be entitled to exercise its own voting rights at the shareholders’ general meeting. Consequently, HIPDC currently holds 35.14% of our total voting rights. Since HIPDC’s parent company, Huaneng Group, currently holds, directly or indirectly, 14.87% of our total voting rights, HIPDC is able to exert control over us when acting in concert with Huaneng Group.

Huaneng Group and HIPDC had previously given a non-compete undertaking to us during our initial public offering of A shares in 2001, in order to support our business development, to integrate relevant quality assets and to avoid business competition. In September 2010, we received from Huaneng Group an undertaking on relevant matters for further avoidance of business competition. While Huaneng Group will continue to perform its undertakings previously given, Huaneng Group further undertakes that: (i) it shall treat us as the only platform for ultimate integration of the conventional energy business of Huaneng Group; (ii) with respect to the conventional energy business assets of Huaneng Group located in Shandong Province, Huaneng Group undertakes that it will take approximately 5 years to improve the profitability of such assets and when the terms become appropriate, it will invest those assets into us. We have a right of first refusal to acquire from Huaneng Group the newly developed, acquired or invested projects which are engaged in the conventional energy business of Huaneng Group located in Shandong Province; (iii) with respect to the other non-listed conventional energy business assets of Huaneng Group located in other provincial administrative regions, Huaneng Group undertakes that it will take approximately 5

101

years, and upon such assets meeting the conditions for listing, it will invest such assets into us in order to support our sustainable and stable development; and (iv) Huaneng Group will continue to perform each of its undertakings to support the development of its subordinated listed companies.

On June 28, 2014, pursuant to Guideline No. 4 for the Supervision of Listed Companies No.4 - Commitments and Their Fulfillment by Listed Companies and Their Actual Controllers, Shareholders, Related Parties and Acquirers issued by CSRC, Huaneng Group strengthened its aforementioned non-competing undertaking in the following ways: (i) it shall treat us as the only platform for integrating the conventional energy business of Huaneng Group; (ii) with respect to the conventional energy business assets of Huaneng Group located in Shandong Province, Huaneng Group undertakes that by the end of 2016, it will inject such assets into the our Company when the profitability of such assets has been improved and meets our internal requirements for the listing of our assets, which include clear delineation of assets and shares ownership between our Company and Huaneng Group, absence of decrease in earnings per share of the Company after the injection and any unlawful events of significance, appreciation of state-owned assets, and certain waivers of shareholder rights by Huaneng Group; (iii) with respect to the other non-listed conventional energy business assets of Huaneng Group in other provincial administrative regions, Huaneng Group undertook that by the end of 2016, upon such assets meeting the our aforementioned internal requirements, the Group will inject such assets into the Company, with a view to supporting the Company’s continuous and stable development; and (iv) Huaneng Group will continue to perform each of its undertakings to support the development of its subordinated listed companies. The period of such undertakings is between June 28, 2014 and December 31, 2016.

On October 13, 2014, the Company signed a number of equity transfer agreements with each of Huaneng Group and HIPDC, pursuant to which the Company acquired the equity interests of ten power companies in total held by Huaneng Group and HIPDC for the consideration of approximately RMB9.276 billion. This transaction further reduced the business competition between the Company and major shareholder, and honoring the undertakings provided by major shareholder to support the development of the Company.

Legal proceedings

Other than that disclosed under “Item 5. Operating and Financial Reviews and Prospects – G. Guarantees for loans and restricted assets”, we are not a defendant in any material litigation or arbitration and no litigation or claim of material importance is known to us or any member of the Board of Directors of us to be pending or threatened against us.

Dividend distribution policy

Our articles of association clearly define our cash dividend policy, i.e. when our earnings and accumulative undistributable profits for the current year are positive, and on the condition that our cash flow can satisfy our normal operation and sustainable development, we shall adopt a cash dividend appropriation policy on the principle that the cash dividend payout will not be less than 50% of the distributable profit realized in the then-current year’s consolidated financial statement.

Our Board of Directors will determine the payment of dividends, if any, with respect to our shares on a per share basis. Any final dividend for a financial year shall be subject to shareholders’ approval. The Board may declare interim and special dividends at any time under general authorization by a shareholders’ ordinary resolution. A decision to declare or to pay any dividends in the future, and the amount of any dividends, will depend on our results of operations, cash flows, financial condition, future prospects and other factors which our Directors may determine as important.

For holders of our H shares, cash dividend payments, if any, shall be declared by our Board of Directors in Renminbi and paid in HK Dollars. The depositary will convert the HK Dollar dividend payments and distribute them to holders of ADSs in U.S. dollars, less expenses of conversion.

Dividends may be paid only out of our distributable profits (less allocation to the statutory funds of 10% of our net income determined in accordance with PRC GAAP) and may be subject to any applicable PRC withholding tax. Our Articles of Association limit our distributable profits to the lower of the amounts determined in accordance with PRC GAAP, and IFRS. Subject to the above, we expect to carry a positive, balanced and stable dividend distribution policy.

Our board has proposed a cash dividend of RMB0.47 per ordinary share (tax inclusive) for the year ended December 31, 2015, which is equivalent to RMB18.8 per ADS. The total dividend to be paid upon approval amounts to approximately RMB7,144 million.

B.	Significant changes

Except as disclosed elsewhere in this annual report, we have not experienced any significant changes since the date of our audited consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.

Additional Information

A.	Share capital

Not applicable.

B.	Memorandum and articles of association

The following is a brief summary of certain provisions of our Articles of Association, as amended, the Company Law and certain other applicable laws and regulations of the PRC. Such summary does not purport to be complete. For further information, you and your advisors should refer to the text of our Articles of Association, as amended, and to the texts of the applicable laws and regulations.

Objects and Purposes

We are a joint stock limited company established in accordance with the Standard Opinion for Joint Stock Limited Companies (the “Standard Opinion”) and certain other relevant laws and regulations of the PRC. We are registered with the PRC State Administration for Industry and Commerce with business license number Qi Gu Guo Zi No. 000496. Article 10 of our Articles of Association provides that our scope of businesses includes, among other things, investment, construction, operation and management of power plants; development, investment and operation of other export-oriented enterprises related to power plants; and production and supply of thermal heat.

Directors

Our directors shall be elected at our shareholders’ general meeting. Because the shares do not have cumulative voting rights, a holder of a majority of the shares is able to elect all of the directors. Our directors shall be elected for a term of three years and may serve consecutive terms upon re-election, except that independent directors may only serve a maximum of two consecutive terms of six years. Our directors are not required to hold any shares in us, and there is no age limit requirement for the retirement or non-retirement of our directors.

Where a director is materially interested, directly or indirectly, in a contract, transaction or arrangement (including any proposed contract, transaction or arrangement) with us, he or she shall declare the nature and extent of his or her interests to the board of directors at the earliest opportunity, whether or not such contract, transaction or arrangement is otherwise subject to the approval of the board. A director shall not vote, and shall not be counted in

112

the quorum of the meeting, on any resolution concerning any contract, transaction or arrangement where the director owns material rights or interests therein. A director is deemed to be interested in a contract, transaction or arrangement in which his associate (as defined by Article 133 of the Articles of Association) is interested.

Unless the interested director discloses his interests to the board and the contract, transaction or arrangement in which the director is materially interested is approved by the board at a meeting in which the director neither votes nor is counted in the quorum, such contract, transaction or arrangement may be revoked by us except with respect to a bona fide party thereto who does not have notice of the director’s interests.

We are prohibited from making loans or providing guarantees to our directors and their associates except where such loan or guarantee is made or provided under a service contract as approved by our shareholders at the shareholders’ general meeting and to meet expenditure requirement incurred or to be incurred by the director for the purposes of the Company or for the purpose of enabling the director to perform his or her duties properly.

Matters relating to the remuneration of our directors shall be determined by the shareholders’ general meeting.

Dividends

Distribution of dividends may be proposed by our board of directors for approval by an ordinary resolution of our shareholders at the shareholders’ general meeting. The Articles of Association allows for cash dividends, stock dividends and combination of cash and stock dividends.

Dividends may only be distributed after allowance has been made for:

recovery of losses, if any;

allocations to the statutory surplus reserve fund; and

allocations to a discretionary surplus reserve fund.

The allocation to the statutory surplus reserve fund is 10% of our net income determined in accordance with the PRC accounting rules. Where the accumulated statutory surplus reserve fund has reached 50% or more of our registered capital, no allocation is needed.

The Articles of Association require that cash dividends and other distribution with respect of H Shares be declared in Renminbi and paid by the Company in U.S. dollars or Hong Kong dollar in terms of the H Shares listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The Articles of Association further stipulate that for dividends and other distributions paid in currencies other than Renminbi, we shall use an exchange rate equal to the median closing exchange rate of Renminbi for such currencies announced by the PBOC for two working days in the week preceding the date on which such dividends or other distributions are declared.

We will appoint receiving agents to receive, on behalf of the holders of H Shares, any dividend distributions and all other money owing by us in respect of such shares (Receiving Agents). The Receiving Agents will comply with the laws and regulations of the applicable stock exchanges on which our shares are listed. Any Receiving Agent appointed on behalf of the holders of H Shares listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange will be a company registered as a trust corporation under the Trustee Ordinance of Hong Kong.

Dividends payments may be subject to PRC withholding tax.

113

Voting Rights and Shareholders’ Meetings

Our board of directors shall convene a shareholders’ annual general meeting once every year and within six months from the end of the preceding financial year. Our board shall convene an extraordinary general meeting within two months after the occurrence of any one of the following events:

where the number of directors is less than the number required by the PRC Company Law or two-thirds of the number specified in our Articles of Association;

where our unrecovered losses reach one-third of the total amount of our share capital;

where shareholder(s) holding 10% or more of our issued shares so request(s);

whenever our board deems necessary or our supervisory committee so requests; or

other circumstances as provided in the Articles of Association.

Resolutions proposed by shareholder(s) holding 3% or more of the total number of voting shares shall be included in the agenda for the relevant annual general meeting if (i) they are submitted to the board of directors no later than 10 days before the annual general meeting is to be held and (ii) they are matters which fall within the scope of the functions and powers of shareholders’ general meeting and have clear subject and concrete terms to be voted upon. The board of directors shall publish a supplementary notice of annual general meeting specifying the resolutions proposed to other shareholders. Upon publication of the supplementary notice, no alteration to the proposed resolutions or addition of other proposed resolutions will be accepted.

All shareholders’ meetings must be convened by our board by written notice given to shareholders not less than 45 days before the meeting. Based on the written replies received by us 20 days before a shareholders’ meeting, we shall calculate the number of voting shares represented by shareholders who have indicated that they intend to attend the meeting. When the number of voting shares represented by those shareholders amount to more than one-half of our total voting shares, we shall convene the shareholders’ general meeting. Otherwise, we shall, within five days before holding the shareholders’ general meeting, inform the shareholders again of the motions to be considered and the date and venue of the meeting by way of a public announcement. After the announcement is made, the shareholders’ meeting may be convened. The accidental omission by us to give notice of a meeting to, or the non-receipt of notice of a meeting by, a shareholder will not invalidate the proceedings at that shareholders’ meeting.

Shareholders at meetings have the power, among other things, to examine and approve our profit distribution plans and plans to recover losses, the annual budget, an increase or reduction of registered share capital, the reports of our board of directors and supervisory committee, the issuance of debentures, and the plans for merger, division, dissolution or liquidation; to elect or remove our directors and supervisors who are not elected as employees’ representatives; and to review and amend our Articles of Association. In addition, the rights of a class of shareholders may not be modified or abrogated, unless approved by a special resolution of shareholders at a general shareholders’ meeting and by a special resolution of shareholders of that class of shares at a separate meeting. Our Articles of Association enumerate, without limitation, certain amendments which would be deemed to be a modification or abrogation of the rights of a class of shareholders, including increasing or decreasing the number of shares of such class or the number of shares of a class with voting or distribution rights or privileges equal or superior to the shares of such class, removing or reducing rights to receive dividends in a particular currency, and creating shares with voting or distribution rights or privileges equal or superior to the shares of such class.

Each share is entitled to one vote on all such matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders at the shareholders’ general meetings, except for meetings of a special class of shareholders where only holders of shares of the affected class are entitled to vote on the basis of one vote per share of the affected class.

114

Shareholders are entitled to attend and vote at meetings either in person or by proxy. Proxies must be in writing and deposited at our legal address, or such other place as is specified in the meeting notice, not less than 24 hours before the start of the meeting at which the proxy proposes to vote or the time appointed for the passing of the relevant resolution(s). When the instrument appointing a proxy is executed by the shareholder’s attorney-in-fact, such proxy when deposited must be accompanied by a notary-certified copy of the relevant power of attorney or other authority under which the proxy was executed.

Except for those actions discussed below which require supermajority votes (“special resolutions”), resolutions of the shareholders are passed by a simple majority of the voting shares held by shareholders who are present in person or by proxy. Special resolutions must be passed by more than two-thirds of the voting shares held by shareholders who are present in person or by proxy.

The following decisions must be adopted by special resolution:

an increase or reduction of our registered share capital or the issuance of shares, including stock distributions, of any class, warrants and other similar securities;

issuance of debentures;

our division, merger, dissolution, liquidation and change of the legal form;

amendments to our Articles of Association;

acquisition or disposal of material assets or providing a guarantee in the amount exceeding 30% of our most recent audited total assets within one year;

adjustments to our profit distribution policy; and

any other matters our shareholders have resolved by way of an ordinary resolution at a general meeting to be of a nature which may have a material impact on us and should be adopted by special resolution.

In addition, amendments to the Articles of Association require the approval and consent of the relevant PRC authorities.

All other actions taken by the shareholders, including the appointment and removal of our directors and supervisors and the declaration of cash dividend payments, will be decided by an ordinary resolution of the shareholders.

Any shareholder resolution which is in violation of any laws or regulations of the PRC will be null and void.

Liquidation Rights

In the event of our liquidation, the ordinary shares held by overseas shareholders will rank pari passu with the ordinary shares held by the domestic shareholders, and any of our assets remaining after payments (in order of priority) of (a) the costs of liquidation (b) wages and social insurance fees payable to or for our employees for the past three years prior to the date of liquidation; (c) overdue taxes and tax surcharges, funds and other amounts payable pursuant to the applicable administrative regulations; and (d) bank loans, corporate bonds and other debts, will be divided among our shareholders in accordance with the class of shares and their proportional shareholdings.

Further Capital Call

Shareholders are not liable to make any further contribution to the share capital other than according to the terms, which were agreed to by the subscriber of the relevant shares at the time of subscription.

115

Increases in Share Capital and Preemptive Rights

The Articles of Association require the approval by a special resolution of the shareholders prior to authorizing, allotting, issuing or granting shares, securities convertible into shares or options, warrants or similar rights to subscribe for any shares or such convertible securities. New issues of shares must also be approved by the relevant PRC authorities.

Shareholders do not have preemptive rights with respect to new issues of shares of the Company.

Reduction of Share Capital and Purchase by Us of Our Shares and General Mandate to Repurchase Shares

We may reduce our registered share capital only upon obtaining the approval of the shareholders by a special resolution and, in certain circumstances, of relevant PRC authorities. The number of H Shares which may be purchased is subject to the Hong Kong Takeovers and Share Repurchase Codes.

Restrictions on Large or Controlling Shareholders

Our Articles of Association provide that, in addition to any obligation imposed by laws and administration regulations or required by the listing rules of the stock exchanges on which our shares are listed, a controlling shareholder shall not exercise his voting rights in a manner prejudicial to the interests of the shareholders generally or of some part of the shareholders:

(1)

to relieve a director or supervisor from his or her duty to act honestly in our best interests;

(2)

to approve the expropriation by a director or supervisor (for his or her own benefit or for the benefit of another person) of our assets in any way, including, without limitation, opportunities which may benefit us; or

(3)

to approve the expropriation by a director or supervisor (for his or her own benefit or for the benefit of another person) of the individual rights of other shareholders, including, without limitation, rights to distributions and voting rights (save according to a restructuring of our Company which has been submitted for approval by the shareholders in a general meeting in accordance with our Articles of Association).

A controlling shareholder, however, will not be precluded by our Articles of Association or any laws and administrative regulations or the listing rules of the stock exchanges on which our shares are listed from voting on these matters.

A controlling shareholder is defined by our Articles of Association as a shareholder whose capital contribution represents 50% or more of the total capital of our Company, or a shareholder whose shares represent 50% or more of the total issued share capital of our Company, or a shareholder whose capital contribution or shares are less than 50% but obtains significant voting rights to influence the result of the shareholder’s general meeting or the resolutions passed thereby.

Disclosure

The Listing Agreement imposes a requirement on us to keep the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, our shareholders and other holders of our listed securities informed as soon as reasonably practicable of any information relating to us and our subsidiaries, including information on any major new developments which are not public knowledge, which:

is necessary to enable them and the public to appraise the position of us and our subsidiaries;

is necessary to avoid the establishment of a false market in its securities; and

116

might be reasonably expected to materially affect market activity in and the price of its securities.

There are also requirements under the Listing Rules for us to obtain prior shareholders’ approval and/or to disclose to shareholders details of certain acquisitions or disposals of assets and other transactions (including transactions with controlling shareholders).

Sources of Shareholders’ Rights

The PRC’s legal system is based on written statutes and is a system in which decided legal cases have little precedent value. Prior to the effectiveness of the Company Law, the PRC did not have a comprehensive body of laws governing joint stock limited companies. The rights and obligations of our shareholders are principally contained in our constitutive documents and the Standard Opinion, under which we were established. In December 1993, the Standing Committee of the 8th National People’s Congress adopted the PRC Company Law, which superseded the Standard Opinion. In accordance with Article 229 of the Company Law, we must comply with the relevant requirements of the Company Law within an unspecified time period. As a result, we amended our Articles of Association pursuant to the Company Law on June 6, 1995. On October 27, 2005, the Company Law was amended by the Standing Committee of the 10th National People’s Congress, and came into force on January 1, 2006.

Currently, the primary sources of shareholder’s rights are our Articles of Association, as amended, the PRC Company Law and the Listing Rules of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, which, among other things, impose certain standards of conduct, fairness and disclosure on us, our directors and our controlling shareholders. To facilitate the offering and listing of shares of PRC companies overseas, and to regulate the behavior of companies whose shares are listed overseas, the State Council Securities Committee and the State Commission for Restructuring the Economic System issued on August 27, 1994 the Mandatory Provisions for Articles of Association of Company Listing Overseas (the “Mandatory Provisions”). These Mandatory Provisions become entrenched in that, once they are incorporated into the Articles of Association of a PRC Company, any amendment to those provisions will only become effective after approval by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council. The Listing Rules require a number of additional provisions to the Mandatory Provisions to be included in the Articles of Association of PRC companies listing H Shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (the “Additional Provisions”). The Mandatory Provisions and the Additional Provisions have been incorporated into our Articles of Association.

In addition, upon the listing of and for so long as the H Shares are listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, we are subject to the relevant ordinances, rules and regulations applicable to companies listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, including the Listing Rules of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the Securities (Disclosure of Interests) Ordinance (the “SDI Ordinance”), the Securities (Insider Dealing) Ordinance and the Hong Kong Codes on Takeovers and Mergers and Share Repurchases (the “Hong Kong Takeovers and Repurchase Codes”).

Enforceability of Shareholders’ Rights

There has not been any public disclosure in relation to the enforcement by holders of H Shares of their rights under constitutive documents of joint stock limited companies or the Company Law or in the application or interpretation of the PRC or Hong Kong regulatory provisions applicable to the PRC joint stock limited companies.

The Company Law, as amended in October 2005 and effective in January 2006, has granted shareholders with the rights to bring derivative suits. Within the Company Law, shareholders holding more than 1 percent of the shares of the company for more than 180 consecutive days are entitled to request the supervisory committee (in terms of directors and senior management) or the board of directors (in terms of supervisors) to bring legal proceedings, or bring legal proceedings in their own name on behalf of the company where it is in emergency and the company will be subject to irreparable loss if not to do so, against directors, supervisors or senior management

117

who fail to comply with the laws and regulations or the company’s Articles of Association in the course of performing their duties and cause loss to the company;

Our Articles of Association provide that all differences or claims:

between a holder of H Shares and us;

between a holder of H Shares and any of our directors, supervisors, general managers or other senior officers; or

between a holder of H Shares and a holder of domestic ordinary shares, arising from any provision of our Articles of Association, any right or obligation conferred or imposed by the Company Law or any other relevant law or administrative regulation which concerns our affairs

must, with certain exceptions, be referred to arbitration at either the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission in the PRC or the Hong Kong International Arbitration Center. Our Articles of Association provide that such arbitration will be final and conclusive. In June 1999, an arrangement was made between the People’s Courts of the PRC and the courts of Hong Kong to mutually enforce arbitration rewards rendered in the PRC and Hong Kong according to their respective laws. This new arrangement was approved by the Supreme Court of the PRC and the Hong Kong Legislative Council and became effective on February 1, 2000.

The holders of H Shares will not be able to bring actions on the basis of violations of the Listing Rules and must rely on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to enforce its rules. The SDI Ordinance establishes certain obligations in relation to disclosure of shareholder’s interests in Hong Kong listed companies, the violation of which is subject to prosecution by the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong. The Hong Kong Takeovers and Repurchase Codes do not have the force of law and are the only standards of commercial conduct considered acceptable for takeover and merger transactions and share repurchases in Hong Kong as established by the Securities and Futures Commission and the securities and futures industry in Hong Kong.

We have appointed CT Corporation System, New York, as our agent to receive service of process with respect to any action brought against us in certain courts in New York under the United States federal and New York State’s securities laws. However, as the PRC does not have treaties providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts within the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan or most other of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development countries, administrative actions brought by regulatory authorities, such as the Commission, and other actions which result in foreign court judgments, could (assuming such actions are not required by PRC law and the Articles of Association to be arbitrated) only be enforced in the PRC on a reciprocal basis or according to relevant international treaties to which China is a party if such judgments or rulings do not violate the basic principles of the law of the PRC or the sovereignty, security and public interest of the society of the PRC, as determined by a People’s Court of the PRC which has the jurisdiction for recognition and enforcement of judgments. We have been advised by our PRC counsel, Haiwen & Partners, that there is uncertainty as to the enforceability in the PRC of actions to enforce judgments of United States courts arising out of or based on the ownership of H Shares or ADSs, including judgments arising out of or based on the civil liability provisions of United States federal or state securities laws.

Restrictions on Transferability and the Share Register

As provided in the Articles of Associations we may refuse to register a transfer of H Shares listed on Hong Kong Stock Exchange unless:

a fee (for each instrument of transfer) of HK dollar 2.50, or any higher fee as agreed by the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, has been paid to us;

the instrument of transfer only involves H Shares;

118

the stamp duty chargeable on the instrument of transfer has been paid;

the relevant share certificate and upon the reasonable request of the board of directors, any evidence in relation to the right of the transferor to transfer the shares have been submitted;

if it is intended to transfer the shares to joint owners, then the maximum number of joint owners must not exceed four;

we do not have any lien on the relevant shares.

We are required to maintain an original share register for holders of H Shares in Hong Kong and a copy of the register at our legal address. Shareholders have the right to inspect and, for a reasonable charge, to copy the share register. No transfers of ordinary shares shall be recorded in our share register within 20 days prior to the date of a shareholders’ general meeting or within 5 days prior to the record date established for the purpose of distributing a dividend.

We have appointed Hong Kong Registrars Limited to act as the registrar of our H Shares. This registrar maintains our register of holders of H Shares in Hong Kong and enters transfers of shares in such register upon the presentation of the documents described above.

C.	Material contracts

See “Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions — B. Related Party Transactions” for certain arrangements we have entered into with HIPDC and Huaneng Group.

D.	Exchange controls

The existing foreign exchange regulations have significantly reduced government foreign exchange controls for transactions under the current account, including trade and service related foreign exchange transactions and payment of dividends. We may undertake current account foreign exchange transactions without prior approval from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange or its local branch offices. The PRC Government has stated publicly that it intends to make the Renminbi freely convertible in the future. However, we cannot predict whether the PRC Government will continue its existing foreign exchange policy and when the PRC Government will allow free conversion of Renminbi to foreign currency.

Foreign exchange transactions under the capital account, under most circumstances, including principal payments in respect of foreign currency-denominated obligations, continue to be subject to significant foreign exchange controls and require the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange or its local branch offices. These limitations could affect our ability to obtain foreign exchange through debt or equity financing, or to obtain foreign exchange for capital expenditures.

The conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies, including U.S. dollars, is based on rates set by the PBOC. On July 21, 2005, the PRC government introduced a floating exchange rate system to allow the value of Renminbi to fluctuate within a regulated band based on market supply and demand and by reference to a basket of foreign currencies. Renminbi appreciated by more than 20% against the U.S. dollar between July 2005 and July 2008. Between July 2008 and June 2010, this appreciation halted and the exchange rate between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar remained within a narrow band. On June 19, 2010, the PBOC decided to further promote the reform of the Renminbi exchange rate formation mechanism, and improve the flexibility of the Renminbi exchange rate. Since June 2010, Renminbi has regained steady appreciation against the U.S. dollar, which was reversed by slight depreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar at the turn to and early 2014. On March 15, 2014, the PBOC announced to further widen the Remninbi’s daily trading band against the U.S. dollar from 1% to 2% on either side of the daily reference rate, allowing for greater fluctuations of the exchange rate. It is difficult to predict how market

119

forces or PRC or U.S. government policy may impact the exchange rate between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar in the future. There remains significant international pressure on the PRC Government to further liberalize its currency policy, which could result in further fluctuations in the value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar. However, there is no assurance that there will not be a devaluation of Renminbi in the future. If there is such a devaluation, our debt servicing cost will increase and the return to our overseas investors may decrease.

The following table sets forth information concerning exchange rates between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar for the periods indicated:

Taxation

The following is a summary of (i) certain tax consequences from acquiring, owning and disposing of the H Shares and ADSs based on tax laws of the PRC, the United States and the Income Tax Treaty between the PRC and the United States (the “Tax Treaty”) as in effect on the date of this annual report, and is subject to changes in PRC or United States law, including changes that could have retroactive effect, and (ii) the principal PRC taxes to which we are subject. The following summary does not take into account or discuss the tax laws of any countries or regions other than the PRC and the United States, nor does it take into account the individual circumstances of an investor. This summary does not purport to be a complete technical analysis or examination of all potential tax effects relevant to an investment in the H Shares or ADSs and current and prospective investors in all jurisdictions of the H Shares or ADSs are advised to consult their tax advisors as to PRC, United States or other tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the H Shares or ADSs. This summary also does not purport to be a complete technical analysis or examination of all potential PRC taxes that may be levied upon us.

PRC tax considerations

Tax on dividends

Individual investors

According to the current PRC tax regulations, dividends paid by PRC companies to individual investors are ordinarily subject to a PRC withholding tax levied at a flat rate of 20%. For a foreign individual who has no domicile or does not stay in the territory of China or who has no domicile but has stayed in the territory of China for less than one year, the receipt of dividends from a company in China is normally subject to a withholding tax of 20% unless reduced or exempted by applicable laws and tax treaties.

120

Enterprises

In accordance with the New Enterprise Income Tax Law that became effective on January 1, 2008, dividends derived from the revenues accumulated from January 1, 2008 and paid by PRC companies to non-resident enterprises are generally subject to a PRC withholding tax levied at a rate of 10% unless exempted or reduced pursuant to an applicable double-taxation treaty or other exemptions. Dividends paid by PRC companies to resident enterprises, including enterprises established under the laws of non-PRC jurisdictions but whose “de facto management body” is located in the PRC, are not subject to any PRC withholding tax, unless the dividends are derived from the publicly traded shares which have not been held continuously by the resident enterprises for twelve months. According to the Notice on the Issues Concerning Withholding the Enterprise Income Tax on the Dividends Paid by Chinese Resident Enterprise to H Share Holders Which Are Overseas Non-resident Enterprises issued by the State Administration of Taxation on November 6, 2008, Chinese resident enterprises are required to withhold PRC enterprise income tax at the rate of 10% on dividends paid for 2008 and later years payable to their respective H Shares holders who are non-resident enterprises.

Capital gains tax on sales of shares

In accordance with the New Enterprise Income Tax Law, capital gains realized by foreign enterprises which are non-resident enterprises in China upon the sale of overseas shares are generally subject to a PRC withholding tax levied at a rate of 10%, unless exempted or reduced pursuant to an applicable double-taxation treaty or other exemptions. The capital gains realized by resident enterprises, including enterprises established under the laws of non-PRC jurisdictions but whose “de facto management body” is located in the PRC, upon the sales of overseas shares are subject to the PRC enterprise income tax.

Tax treaties

Non-PRC Investors residing in countries which have entered into double-taxation treaties with the PRC may be entitled to a reduction of the withholding tax imposed on the payment of dividends to such Foreign Holders of us. The PRC currently has double-taxation treaties with a number of countries, including Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Stamp tax

Under the Provisional Regulations of The People’s Republic of China Concerning Stamp Tax, which became effective in October 1988, PRC stamp tax should not be imposed on the transfer of H Shares or ADSs of PRC publicly traded companies.

Taxation of the Company

Income tax

Prior to January 1, 2008, according to the relevant income tax law, foreign invested enterprises were, in general, subject to a statutory income tax of 33% (30% enterprise income tax and 3% local income tax). If these enterprises are located in certain specified locations or cities, or are specifically approved by the State Administration of Taxation, a lower tax rate would be applied. Effective from January 1, 1999, in accordance with the practice notes on the PRC income tax laws applicable to foreign invested enterprises investing in energy and transportation infrastructure businesses, a reduced enterprise income tax rate of 15% (after the approval of State Administration of Taxation) was applicable across the country. We applied this rule to all of our wholly owned operating power plants after obtaining the approval of the State Administration of Taxation. In addition, certain power plants were exempted from the enterprise income tax for two years starting from the first profit-making year, after offsetting all tax losses carried forward from the previous years (at most of five years), followed by a 50% reduction of the applicable tax rate for the next three years. The statutory income tax was assessed individually based on each of their results of operations.

121

On March 16, 2007, the Enterprise Income Tax Law of PRC, or the New Enterprise Income Tax Law, was enacted, and became effective on January 1, 2008. The New Enterprise Income Tax Law imposes a uniform income tax rate of 25% for domestic enterprises and foreign invested enterprises. Therefore, our power plants that were subject to a 33% income tax rate prior to January 1, 2008 are subject to a lower tax rate of 25% starting on January 1, 2008. With regard to our power plants entitled to a reduced enterprise income tax rate of 15% prior to January 1, 2008, their effective tax rate is being gradually increased to 25% within a five-year transition period commencing on January 1, 2008. Accordingly, the effective tax rate of our wholly owned power plants will increase over time. In addition, although our power plants entitled to tax exemption and reduction under the income tax laws and regulations that are effective prior to the New Enterprise Income Tax Law will continue to enjoy such preferential treatments until the expiration of the same, newly established power plants will not be able to benefit from such tax incentives, unless they can satisfy specific qualifications, if any, provided by then effective laws and regulations on preferential tax treatment.

Pursuant to Measures for the Collection and Administration of Consolidated Payment of Enterprises Income Tax on Trans-Regional Operation, effective on January 1, 2013, the Company and its branches calculate and pay income tax on a combined basis according to relevant tax laws and regulations. The income tax of subsidiaries remains to be calculated individually based on their individual operating results.

Value-added tax

Since January 1, 1994, the government has implemented a turnover tax system applicable to FIEs. Under the turnover tax provisions, we have to collect from our electricity customers and pay to the PRC tax authorities a value-added tax (“VAT”) on our sales. The tax rate on sales of electricity by us is 17% of total sales. The amount of VAT payable by us is the VAT on sales reduced by the VAT paid by us on our purchases of coal, fuel and other inputs.

Effective from January 1, 2009, VAT payers are allowed to credit against output VAT in respect of input VAT on fixed assets purchased or self-manufactured based on the relevant VAT credit receipts in accordance with the revised VAT regulations and its implementation rules.

In addition, effective from August 1, 2012, according to the relevant regulations of Ministry of Finance of PRC and State Administration of Taxation, nine pilot regions including Shanghai, Beijing, Tianjin, Jiangsu Province, Anhui Province, Zhejiang Province, Fujian Province, Hubei Province and Guangdong Province have been under the pilot program for the transformation from Business Tax to VAT since January 1, 2012 and all other regions have been since August 1, 2013 for specified industry. The applicable tax rate of VAT for the Company and its subsidiaries in respect of the lease of tangible movable properties, transportation industry and other modern services industries are 17%, 11% and 6%, respectively.

United States federal income tax considerations

The following discussion is a summary of United States federal income tax considerations relating to the ownership and disposition of our H shares or ADSs by a U.S. Holder (as defined below). This discussion is based upon existing United States federal income tax law, which is subject to differing interpretations or change, possibly with retroactive effect. This discussion does not address all aspects of United States federal income taxation which may be important to particular holders in light of their particular circumstances, such as holders subject to special tax rules including: banks or other financial institutions, insurance companies, broker-dealers, traders in securities that elect mark-to-market treatment, partnerships and their partners, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, cooperatives, pension plans, tax-exempt organizations (including private foundations), holders who are not U.S. Holders, holders who own (directly, indirectly, or constructively) 10% or more of the voting power or value of our stock, holders that hold H shares or ADSs as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion, constructive sale, or other integrated transaction for United States federal income tax purposes, holders who acquired their ADSs or H shares pursuant to any employee share option or otherwise as compensation, or holders that have a functional currency other than the United States dollar, all of whom may be subject to tax rules that differ significantly from

122

those summarized below. In addition, this discussion does not address any state, local, non-United States, non-income tax (such as the United States federal gift and estate tax), or alternative minimum tax considerations or the Medicare tax. This discussion only addresses holders that hold their H shares or ADSs as “capital assets” (generally, property held for investment) under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the United States federal, state, local, and non-United States income and other tax considerations relating to the ownership and disposition of our H shares or ADSs.

For purposes of this summary, a U.S. Holder is a beneficial owner of H shares or ADSs that is, for United States federal income tax purposes:

an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes) created in or organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof or the District of Columbia;

an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for United States federal income tax purposes regardless of its source; or

a trust (a) the administration of which is subject to the primary supervision of a United States court and which has one or more United States persons who have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (b) a trust that has otherwise elected to be treated as a United States person under the Code.

If a partnership (including any entity treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of H shares or ADSs, the tax treatment of a partner in such partnership will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships and partners of a partnership holding our H shares or ADSs are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the United States federal income tax considerations relating to the ownership and disposition of our H shares or ADSs.

For United States federal income tax purposes, it is generally expected that a U.S. Holder of ADSs will be treated as the beneficial owner of the underlying shares represented by the ADSs. The remainder of this discussion assumes that a holder of ADSs will be treated in this manner. Accordingly, deposits or withdrawals of H shares for ADSs will generally not be subject to United States federal income tax.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations

A non-United States corporation, such as our Company, will be a “passive foreign investment Company” (a “PFIC”), for United States federal income tax purposes for any taxable year, if either (a) 75% or more of its gross income for such year consists of certain types of “passive” income or (b) 50% or more of its average quarterly assets as generally determined on the basis of fair market value during such year produce or are held for the production of passive income. For this purpose, cash and assets readily convertible into cash are categorized as passive assets and the Company’s unbooked intangibles are taken into account for determining the value of its assets. We will be treated as owning a proportionate share of the assets and earning a proportionate share of the income of any other corporation in which we own, directly or indirectly, more than 25% (by value) of the stock.

We do not believe that we were classified as a PFIC for the taxable year ended December 31, 2015. The determination of whether we will be or become a PFIC will depend, in part, upon the composition of our income and our assets (which are subject to change from year to year) and the market price of our ADSs (of which we cannot control). Although we do not expect that our business plans will change in a manner that will affect our PFIC status, no assurance can be given in this regard. Because there are uncertainties in the application of the relevant rules and PFIC status is a fact-intensive determination made on an annual basis, no assurance may be given with respect to our PFIC status for any taxable year.

123

The discussion below under “Dividends” and “Sale or Other Disposition” of H shares or ADSs assumes that we will not be classified as a PFIC for United States federal income tax purposes. See the discussion below under the heading “Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules” for a brief summary of the PFIC rules.

Dividends

The gross amount of any cash distributions (including the amount of any tax withheld) paid on our H shares or ADSs out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under United States federal income tax principles, will be subject to tax as dividend income on the day actually or constructively received by a U.S. Holder, in the case of H shares, or by the depositary bank, in the case of ADSs. Because we do not intend to determine our earnings and profits on the basis of United States federal income tax principles, any distribution paid will generally be reported as a “dividend” for United States federal income tax purposes. A non-corporate recipient of dividend income will generally be subject to tax on dividend income from a “qualified foreign corporation” at a reduced capital gains rate rather than the marginal tax rates generally applicable to ordinary income provided that certain holding period requirements are met.

A non-U.S. corporation (other than a corporation that is classified as a PFIC for the taxable year in which the dividend is paid or the preceding taxable year) generally will be considered to be a qualified foreign corporation (i) if it is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive tax treaty with the United States which the Secretary of Treasury of the United States determines is satisfactory for purposes of this provision and which includes an exchange of information program or (ii) with respect to any dividend it pays on stock which is readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. There is currently a tax treaty in effect between the United States and the People’s Republic of China (the “U.S.-PRC Treaty”) which the Secretary of Treasury of the United States determined is satisfactory for these purposes and we believe that we are eligible for the benefits of such treaty. Additionally, our ADSs (but not our H shares) trade on the New York Stock Exchange, an established securities market in the United States and the ADSs are expected to be readily tradable for so long as they continue to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Thus, while we presently believe that we are a qualified foreign corporation for purposes of the reduced treaty rate, there can be no assurance that the dividends we pay on our H shares or ADSs will meet the conditions required for the reduced tax rate in the current taxable year or future taxable years. Dividends received on H shares or ADSs will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporations. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the rate of tax that will apply to them with respect to dividends (if any) received from U.S.

Dividends paid in non-United States currency will be includible in income in a United States dollar amount based on the exchange rate prevailing at the time of receipt of such dividends by the depositary, in the case of ADSs, or by the U.S. Holder, in the case of H shares held directly by such U.S. Holder, regardless of whether the non-United States currency is actually converted into United States dollars at that time. Gain or loss, if any, recognized on a subsequent sale, conversion or other disposition of the non-United States currency will generally be United States source income or loss.

Dividends received on H shares or ADSs will generally be treated, for United States foreign tax credit purposes, as foreign source income and generally will constitute passive category income. A U.S. Holder may be eligible, subject to a number of complex limitations, to claim a foreign tax credit in respect of any non-United States withholding taxes imposed on dividends received on H shares or ADSs. U.S. Holders who do not elect to claim a foreign tax credit for foreign income tax withheld may instead claim a deduction, for United States federal income tax purposes, in respect of such withholdings, but only for a year in which the U.S. Holder elects to do so for all creditable foreign income taxes. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.

Sale or Other Disposition of H shares or ADSs

A U.S. Holder will generally recognize capital gain or loss upon the sale or other disposition of H shares or ADSs in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized upon the disposition and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such H shares or ADSs. Any capital gain or loss will be long-term if the H shares or ADSs have

124

been held for more than one year and will generally be United States source gain or loss for United States foreign tax credit purposes. If any PRC tax were to be imposed on any gain from the disposition of H shares or ADSs between U.S. Holder that is eligible for the benefits of the U.S.PRC Treaty may elect to treat the gain as non-United States source gain or loss. The deductibility of a capital loss may be subject to limitations. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the tax credit purposes if a non-U.S. withholding tax is imposed on a disposition of our H shares or ADSs, including the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.

U.S. Holders that receive currency other than the United States dollar upon the sale or other disposition of H shares will realize an amount equal to the United States dollar value of the non-United States currency on the date of such sale or other disposition, or if the shares are traded on an established securities market, in the case of cash basis and electing accrual basis taxpayers, the settlement date. U.S. Holders will recognize currency gain or loss if the United States dollar value of the currency received on the settlement date differs from the amount realized. U.S. Holders will have a tax basis in the currency received equal to the United States dollar amount at the spot rate on the settlement date. Generally, any gain or loss realized by U.S. Holders on a subsequent conversion or disposition of such currency will be United States source ordinary income or loss.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules

If we were to be classified as a PFIC in any taxable year, a special tax regime will apply to both (a) any “excess distribution” by us to a U.S. Holder (generally, the U.S. Holder’s ratable portion of distributions in any year which are greater than 125% of the average annual distribution received by such U.S. Holder in the shorter of the three preceding years or the U.S. Holder’s holding period for our H shares or ADSs) and (b) any gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the H shares or ADSs. Under this regime, any excess distribution and realized gain will be treated as ordinary income and will be subject to tax as if (a) the excess distribution or gain had been realized ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period, (b) the amount deemed realized in each year had been subject to tax in each year of that holding period at the highest marginal rate for such year (other than income allocated to the current period or any taxable period before we became a PFIC, which would be subject to tax at the U.S. Holder’s regular ordinary income rate for the current year and would not be subject to the interest charge discussed below), and (c) the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax had been imposed on the taxes deemed to have been payable in those years. In addition, dividends made to a U.S. Holder will not qualify for the lower rates of taxation applicable to long-term capital gains discussed above under “Dividends”.

The above results may be eliminated if a “mark-to-market” election is available and a U.S. Holder validly makes such an election. If the election is made, such holder generally will be required to take into account the difference, if any, between the fair market value and its adjusted tax basis in H shares or ADSs at the end of each taxable year as ordinary income or ordinary loss (to the extent of any net mark-to-market gain previously included in income). In addition, any gain from a sale or other disposition of H shares or ADSs will be treated as ordinary income, and any loss will be treated as ordinary loss (to the extent of any net mark-to-market gain previously included in income).

We do not intend to provide information necessary for U.S. Holders to make qualified electing fund elections, which, if available, would result in tax treatment different from (and generally less adverse than) the general tax treatment for PFICs described above.

As discussed above under “Dividends,” dividends that we pay on the ADSs or our H shares will not be eligible for the reduced tax rate that applies to qualified dividend income if we are a PFIC for the taxable year in which the dividend is paid or the preceding taxable year. In addition, if a U.S. Holder owns the ADSs or our H shares during any taxable year that we are a PFIC, such holder would generally be required to file an annual IRS Form 8621. Each U.S. Holder is advised to consult its tax advisors regarding the potential tax consequences to such holder if we are or become a PFIC, including the possibility of making a mark-to-market election.

Information Reporting

125

U.S. Holders may be subject to information reporting to the United States Internal Revenue Service with respect to dividends on and proceeds from the sale or other disposition of our H shares or ADSs. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the United States information reporting and backup rules to their particular circumstances.

Certain U.S. Holders who hold “specified foreign financial assets”, including stock of a non-U.S. corporation that is not held in an account maintained by a U.S. “financial institution”, whose aggregate value exceeds $50,000 during the tax year, may be required to attach to their tax returns for the year certain specified information. An individual who fails to timely furnish the required information may be subject to a penalty. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding their reporting obligations under this legislation.

ITEM 11

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our primary market risk exposures are fluctuations of fuel prices, foreign exchange rates and interest rates.

Equity price risk

The available-for-sale financial assets of the Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to equity security price risk.

Detailed information relating to the available-for-sale financial assets is disclosed in Note 10 to the financial statements. The Company has a supervisor in the supervisory committee of the most significant investment in available-for-sale financial assets (China Yangtze Power Co., Ltd.) and may exercise protective rights. The Company also closely monitors the pricing trends in the open market in determining its long-term strategic stakeholding decisions.

The Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to fuel price risk on fuel purchases. In particular, SinoSing Power and its subsidiaries use fuel oil swap to hedge against such a risk and designate them as cash flow hedges. Please refer to Note 14 to the financial statements for details.

Foreign exchange rate risk

126

A portion of our Renminbi revenues are converted into other currencies to (i) repay our debts denominated in currencies other than RMB, and (ii) pay for imported equipment.

The exchange rate of Renminbi to foreign currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. The conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies, including U.S. dollars, is based on rates set by the PBOC. On July 21, 2005, the PRC government introduced a floating exchange rate system to allow the value of Renminbi to fluctuate within a regulated band based on market supply and demand and by reference to a basket of foreign currencies. Renminbi appreciated by more than 20% against the U.S. dollar between July 2005 and July 2008. Between July 2008 and June 2010, this appreciation halted and the exchange rate between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar remained within a narrow band. On June 19, 2010, the PBOC decided to further promote the reform of the Renminbi exchange rate formation mechanism, and improve the flexibility of the Renminbi exchange rate. Since June 2010, the Renminbi has regained steady appreciation against the U.S. dollar, which was reversed by a slight depreciation of Renminbi against the U.S. dollar at the turn to and early 2014. On March 15, 2014, the PBOC announced to further widen the Remninbi’s daily trading band against the U.S. dollar from 1% to 2% on either side of the daily reference rate, allowing for greater fluctuations of the exchange rate. It is difficult to predict how market forces or PRC or U.S. government policy may impact the exchange rate between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar in the future. There remains significant international pressure on the PRC Government to further liberalize its currency policy. We cannot assure you that any future movements in the exchange rate of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies will not adversely affect our results of operations and financial conditions.

SinoSing Power and its subsidiaries are exposed to foreign exchange risk on fuel purchases that is denominated primarily in U.S. dollars. They use forward exchange contracts to hedge almost all of their estimated foreign exchange exposure in respect of forecast fuel purchases over the following three months. The Company and its subsidiaries account for their forward foreign currency contracts as cash flow hedges.

The following table provides information, by maturity date, regarding our foreign currency sensitive financial instruments, which consist of bank balances and cash, short-term and long-term debt obligations, capital commitments and forward exchange contracts as of December 31, 2015 and average interest rates for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Note:

(1)	The interest rates for variable rate bank and other loans are calculated based on the individual year beginning indices.

The outstanding balance of the Company’s loans denominated in foreign currencies has changed continually as a result of repayments of the loans by the Company according to agreed-upon repayment schedules. The loans denominated in U.S. dollars decreased from RMB3.31 billion as of December 31, 2014 to RMB3.07 billion as of December 31, 2015. The loans denominated in Euros decreased from RMB431 million as of December 31, 2014 to RMB344 million as of December 31, 2015.

Interest rate risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily resulting from fluctuations in interest rates on our debts. Upward fluctuations in interest rates increase the cost of new variable rate debts and the interest cost of outstanding floating rate borrowings.

At present, the interest rate of the Company’s loans denominated in RMB is subject to the change of the benchmark interest rate published and adjusted by the PBOC. Different interest rate levels correspond to loans with different terms. New loan contracts entered into hereafter will be subject to current benchmark interest rates. A portion of the Company’s loans denominated in foreign currency are fixed rate loans, which are not subject to the changes in market interest rates. Due to the loans borrowed in relation to the acquisition of SinoSing Power, the portion of the loans denominated in foreign currency with floating interest rates increased, which subjects the finance cost of the Company to the fluctuation of market interest rates. In 2009, the Company entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement to hedge against the cash flow interest rate risk of part of the loan. According to the interest rate swap agreement, the Company agrees with the counterparty to settle the difference between fixed contract rates and floating rate interest amounts calculated by reference to the agreed notional amounts quarterly until 2019. The notional amount of the outstanding interest rate swap at December 31, 2015 was US$240 million.

In 2009, Tuas Power completed its refinancing, through which all of its outstanding loans denominated in U.S. dollars were refinanced through loans denominated in Singapore dollars, matching the functional currency of its operation. The loans borrowed by Tuas Power were denominated in Singapore dollars, and the majority of them are with floating interest rates, which subjects the finance cost of the Company to the fluctuation of market interest rates. In 2012 and 2013, TPG also entered into a number of floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreements to hedge

129

against the cash flow interest rate risk of the loan. According to these interest rate swap agreements, TPG agrees with the counterparty to settle the difference between fixed contract rates and floating rate interest amounts calculated by reference to the agreed notional amount semi-annually until 2020. The notional amount of the outstanding interest rate swap at December 31, 2015 was S$1,399.8 million.

The table below provides information about the Company and its subsidiaries’ derivative financial instruments and other financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates, including interest rate swaps and debt obligations. For debt obligations, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates. For interest rate swaps, the table presents notional amounts and weighted average interest rates by expected (contractual) maturity dates. Notional amounts are used to calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged under the contract. Weighted average variable rates are based on implied forward rates in the yield curve at the reporting date.

Note:

(1)	The interest rates for variable rate bank and other loans are calculated based on the individual year beginning indices.

As of December 31, 2015, the Company’s floating rate loans denominated in foreign currency amounted to RMB3,070 million, accounting for approximately 86.09% of the total foreign loans, most of which was denominated in U.S. dollars, and the average credit spread is 99 bps. In addition, SinoSing Power’s loans denominated in Singapore dollars are floating rate loans and amounted to RMB12,372 million as of December 31, 2015. The interest rates of the loans denominated in U.S. dollars and Singapore dollars are relatively low at the current market

131

condition and it is not expected that a significant fluctuation would occur within the foreseeable period, thus it is not expected to cause any material adverse effect on the finance cost of the Company. The Company has paid special attention to the trend of the international interest rate market by keeping up with the market conditions and predicting the future trend, and has made efforts to explore the feasibility of risk management by application of derivative financial instruments. The Company expects to implement the relevant plan according to its internal approval procedures and use interest rate swaps and other derivative financial instruments to control its interest rate risk upon appropriate time.

Commodity price risk

We are exposed to fuel price risk on fuel purchases. SinoSing Power and its subsidiaries use fuel oil swap to hedge against such risk.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of December 31, 2015 (the “Evaluation Date”), the end of the fiscal year covered by this annual report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). The Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and implementation of our internal control over financial reporting based upon the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. The evaluation is conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management including principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Company. Based on that evaluation, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2015. The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015 has been audited by KPMG, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears herein.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may only provide reasonable assurance for preventing or detecting misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

134

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Huaneng Power International, Inc.:

We have audited Huaneng Power International, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The management of Huaneng Power International, Inc. is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting of Huaneng Power International, Inc. based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Huaneng Power International, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated statements of financial position of Huaneng Power International, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015, and our report dated March 22, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Yue Heng and Mr. Qi. Yudong qualify as Audit Committee Financial Experts in accordance with the terms of Item 16A of Form 20-F. We held election at expiration of office terms of the Board in 2014 and adjusted the members of the Audit Committee accordingly. Mr. Yue Heng and Mr. Qi Yudong were respectively qualified as Financial Experts at the first Board meeting of 18th session of the Board in September 2014. On June 25, 2015, Mr. Geng Jianxin replaced Mr. Qi Yudong as an independent director of the Board. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Geng Jianxin qualifies as an Audit Committee Financial Expert in accordance with the terms of Item 16A of Form 20-F.

Code of Ethics

Although, as of the date of this annual report, we do not have, in form, a code of ethics that applies to the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer (collectively, the “Senior Corporate Officers”), we believe that, as a substantive matter, the Senior Corporate Officers are subject to a set of written requirements under the PRC law that are substantially similar to the ethical standards described under Item 16B (b) of Form 20-F. Joint stock companies that are incorporated in China and listed on both PRC and foreign stock exchanges are heavily regulated by the central government. To a large extent, these requirements, which are designed to promote honest and ethical conduct and compliance with applicable laws and regulations by the directors and senior executives of such companies, are not merely ethical requirements, but more importantly, statutory obligations that are legally binding on these individuals under the PRC Company Law, relevant rules and regulations promulgated by China Securities Regulatory Commission and the Mandatory Provisions of Articles of Association of Overseas Listed Companies.

Audit Committee Pre-approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors is responsible, among other things, for the oversight of the external auditors subject to the requirements of the PRC Law and the Company’s Articles of Association. The Audit Committee has adopted a policy regarding pre-approval of audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided by our independent auditors (the “Policy”). Under the Policy, proposed services either (i) may be pre-approved by the Audit Committee without consideration of specific case-by-case services (“general pre-approval”); or (ii) require the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee (“specific pre-approval”). General pre-approval applies to services of recurring and predictable nature. These types of services, once approved by the Audit Committee in the beginning, will not require further approval in the future, except when actual fees and expenses exceed pre-approved budget levels. In such a case, the Audit Committee may authorize one of its members to approve budget increases subject to the requirement that such member provide a report on his decision to approve or deny an application for budget increases to the Audit Committee at an Audit Committee meeting held immediately after such member grants or denies the approval.

Specific pre-approval applies to all other services. These services must be approved by the Audit Committee on a case-by-case basis after an application including proposed budget and scope of services to be provided by our independent auditors is submitted to the Audit Committee.

For 2015, all of the services provided by KPMG were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

Corporate Governance

Comparison of New York Stock Exchange corporate governance rules and China corporate governance rules for listed companies: under the amended Corporate Governance Rules of New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), foreign issuers (including the Company) listed on the NYSE are required to disclose a summary of the significant differences between their domestic corporate governance rules and NYSE corporate governance rules that would apply to a U.S. domestic issuer. A summary of such differences is listed below:

137

NYSE corporate governance rules		Corporate governance rules applicable to the domestically listed companies in China and the Company’s governance practices
Director Independence

A listed company must have a majority of independent directors on its board of directors. No director qualifies as “independent” unless the board of directors affirmatively determines that the director has no material relationship with the listed company (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the company). In addition, a director must meet certain standards to be deemed independent. For example, a director is not independent if the director is, or has been within the last three years, an employee of the listed company, or an immediate family member is, or has been within the last three years, an executive officer of the listed company, or if the director has received, or has an immediate family member who has received, during any twelve-month period within the last three years, more than US$120,000 in direct compensation from the listed company, other than director and committee fees and pension or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service (provided such compensation is not contingent in any way on continued service).		It is required in China that any listed company must establish an independent director system and set forth specific requirements for the qualification of independent directors. For example, an independent director shall not hold any other position in the listed Company other than being a director and shall not be influenced by the main shareholders or the controlling persons of the listed company, or by any other entities or persons with whom the listed company has a significant relationship. The Company has complied with the relevant Chinese corporate governance rules and has implemented internal rules governing the independence and responsibilities of independent directors. The Company determines the independence of independent directors every year.

To empower non-management directors to serve as a more effective check on management, the non-management directors of each listed company must meet at regularly scheduled executive sessions without management.		No similar requirements.

Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee

Listed companies must have a nominating/corporate governance committee composed entirely of independent directors.		The board of directors of a listed company may, through the resolution of the shareholders’ meeting, establish a nominating committee composed entirely of directors, of which the independent directors shall be the majority and the convener. The Company has established a nominating committee.

The nominating/corporate governance committee must have a written charter that addresses the committee’s purposes and responsibilities which, at minimum, must be to: search for eligible people for the board of directors, select and nominate directors for the next session of the shareholders’ annual meeting, study and propose corporate governance guidelines, supervise the evaluation of the board of directors and management, and evaluate the performance of the committee every year.		Relevant responsibilities of the nominating/corporate governance committee are similar to those stipulated by the NYSE rules, but the main responsibilities do not include the research and recommendation of corporate governance guidelines, the supervision of the evaluation of the board of directors and management, or the annual evaluation of the committee.

138

Compensation Committee

Listed companies must have a compensation committee composed entirely of independent directors.		The board of directors of a listed company can, through the resolution of shareholders’ meeting, have a compensation and evaluation committee composed entirely of directors, of whom the independent directors are the majority and act as the convener.

The compensation committee must have a written charter that addresses, at least, the following purposes and responsibilities:		The responsibilities are similar to those stipulated by the NYSE rules, but the committee is not required to produce a report on the executive compensation or make an annual performance evaluation of the committee. The board of directors of the Company has established a compensation and evaluation committee composed mainly of independent directors who act as the convener, and the committee has a written charter.

(1) review and approve the corporate goals associated with CEO’s compensation, evaluate the performance of the CEO in fulfilling these goals, and, either as a committee or together with the other independent directors (as directed by the board) based on such evaluation, determine and approve the CEO’s compensation level;

(2) make recommendations to the board with respect to non-CEO executive officer compensation, and incentive-compensation and equity-based plans that are subject to board approval;

(3) produce a committee report on executive compensation as required by the SEC to be included in the annual proxy statement or annual report filed with the SEC.

The charter must also include the requirement for an annual performance evaluation of the compensation committee. The compensation committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or consult a compensation consultant, independent legal counsel or other advisor. The compensation committee shall be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of such advisor. A listed company must provide for appropriate funding for payment of reasonable compensation to such advisor. The compensation committee may select such advisor to the compensation committee only after taking into consideration all factors relevant to that person’s independence from management.

139

Audit Committee

Listed companies must have an audit committee that satisfies the requirements of Rule 10A-3 of Exchange Act. It must have a minimum of three members, and all audit committee members must satisfy the requirements for independence set forth in Section 303A.02 of NYSE Corporate Governance Rules as well as the requirements of Rule 10A-3(b)(1) of the Exchange Act.		The board of directors of a listed company can, through the resolution of the shareholders’ meeting, establish an audit committee composed entirely of directors, of which the independent directors are the majority and act as the convener, and, at minimum, one independent director is an accounting professional.

The audit committee must have a written charter that specifies the purpose of the audit committee is, at minimum, to assist the board oversight of the integrity of financial statements, the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, qualifications and independence of independent auditors and the performance of the listed company’s internal audit function and independent auditors.		The responsibilities of the audit committee are similar to those stipulated by the NYSE rules, but according to the domestic practices, the Company is not required to make an annual performance evaluation of the audit committee, and the audit committee is not required to prepare an audit report to be included in the Company’s annual proxy statement. The Board of Directors of the Company has established an audit committee that satisfies relevant domestic requirements and the audit committee has a written charter.

The written charter must also require the audit committee to prepare an audit committee report as required by the SEC to be included in the listed company’s annual proxy statement as well as an annual performance evaluation of the audit committee.

The written charter must also specify the duties and responsibilities of the audit committee, which, at a minimum, must include those set out in Rules 10A-3(b)(2), (3), (4) and (5) of the Exchange Act, as well as other duties and responsibilities, such as to obtain and review a report by the independent auditor at least annually, meet to review and discuss the listed company’s annual audited financial statements and quarterly financial statements with management and independent auditor.

Each listed company must have an internal audit department.		China has a similar regulatory provision, and the Company has an internal audit department.

Shareholder approval of equity compensation plan

Shareholders must be given the opportunity to vote on all equity-compensation plans and material revisions thereto, except for, among others, plans that are made available to shareholders generally, such as typical dividend reinvestment plan, certain awards and plans in the context of mergers and acquisitions.		The relevant regulations of China require the board of directors to propose plans on the amount and types of director compensation for the shareholders’ meeting to approve. The compensation plan of executive officers is subject to approval by the board and announced at the shareholders’ meeting and disclosed to the public upon the approval of the board of directors.

Corporate governance guidelines

Listed companies must adopt and disclose corporate governance guidelines, involving director qualification standards, director responsibilities, director compensation, director continuing education, annual performance evaluation of the board of directors, etc.		CSRC has issued the Corporate Governance Rules, with which the Company has complied.

140

Code of ethics for directors, officers and employees

Listed companies must adopt and disclose a code of business conduct and ethics for directors, officers and employees, and promptly disclose any waivers of the code for directors or executive officers. Each code of business conduct and ethics must require that any waiver of the code for executive officers or directors may be made only by the board or a board committee.		China does not have such requirement for a code for ethics. But, the directors and officers must perform their legal responsibilities in accordance with the Company Law of PRC, relative requirements of CSRC and Mandatory Provisions to the Charter of Companies Listed Overseas.

Each listed company’s CEO must certify to the NYSE each year that he or she is not aware of any violation by the listed company of NYSE corporate governance listing standards and he or she must promptly notify the NYSE in writing of any non-compliance with any applicable provisions of Section 303A.		No similar requirements.

HUANENG POWER INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards)

(Amounts expressed in thousands of RMB unless otherwise stated)

1	Company organization and principal activities

Huaneng Power International, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) as a Sino-foreign joint stock limited company on 30 June 1994. The registered address of the Company is Huaneng Building, 6 Fuxingmennei Street, Xicheng District, Beijing, the PRC. The Company and its subsidiaries are principally engaged in the generation and sale of electric power to the respective regional or provincial grid companies in the PRC and in the Republic of Singapore (“Singapore”). The Company conducts its business in Singapore through SinoSing Power Pte Ltd. (“SinoSing Power”) and its subsidiaries.

The directors consider Huaneng International Power Development Corporation (“HIPDC”) and China Huaneng Group (“Huaneng Group”) as the parent company and ultimate parent company of the Company, respectively. Both HIPDC and Huaneng Group are incorporated in the PRC. HIPDC does not produce financial statements available for public use.

2	Principal accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

(a)

Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the “IASB”) and the disclosure requirement of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. These financial statements also comply with the applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets and derivative financial assets and liabilities.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Company and its subsidiaries’ accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 4.

As at and for the year ended 31 December 2015, a portion of the Company and its subsidiaries’ funding requirements for capital expenditures were satisfied by short-term financing. Consequently, as at 31 December 2015, the Company and its subsidiaries have net current liabilities of approximately RMB90.3 billion. Taking into consideration of the expected operating cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries and the undrawn available banking facilities of approximately RMB235.7 billion as at 31 December 2015, the Company and its subsidiaries are expected to refinance certain of its short term loans and bonds and also to consider alternative sources of financing, where applicable and when needed. Therefore, the directors of the Company are of the opinion that the Company and its subsidiaries will be able to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due within the next twelve months and accordingly, these consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis.

F-11

2	Principal accounting policies (Continued)

(a)

Basis of preparation (Continued)

Except as described below, the principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those applied in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014 described in those annual financial statements.

The Company and its subsidiaries have adopted the following new amendments to standards that are first effective for the current accounting period:

•

Amendments to IAS 19, Employee benefits - Defined benefit plans: Employee contributions

•

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 Cycle

•

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2011-2013 Cycle

None of these developments have had a material effect on how the Company and its subsidiaries’ results and financial position for the current or prior periods have been prepared or presented. The Company and its subsidiaries have not applied any new standard or interpretation that is not yet effective for current accounting period.

(b)

Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and all of its subsidiaries.

Subsidiaries are investees over which the Company and its subsidiaries have the power to exercise control. The Company and its subsidiaries control an entity when it is exposed, or have rights to variable returns from their involvement with the entity and have the ability to affect those returns through their power over the entity. In assessing whether the Company and its subsidiaries have power, only substantive rights (held by the Company and its subsidiaries and other parties) are considered.

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date when control is transferred to the Company and its subsidiaries. They are de-consolidated from the date when control ceases. Intra-group balances, transactions and cash flows, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in full in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with equity accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Company and its subsidiaries’ interest in the investee. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment. The portion of the shareholders’ equity of the subsidiaries, which is not attributable directly or indirectly to the parent company, is separately presented as non-controlling interests in the shareholders’ equity in the consolidated financial statements.

When there is any inconsistency on the accounting policies or financial period adopted between subsidiaries and the Company, the financial statements of subsidiaries are adjusted according to the accounting policies or financial period adopted by the Company.

2	Principal accounting policies (Continued)

(b)

Consolidation (Continued)

(i)

Business combinations

The acquisition method is used to account for the business combinations of the Company and its subsidiaries (including business combination under common controls). The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Company and its subsidiaries. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the Company and its subsidiaries recognize any non-controlling interests in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the recognized amounts of acquiree’s identifiable net assets. The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill (Note 2(i)). If this consideration is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized in profit or loss.

(ii)

Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries without change of control

Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions – that is, as transactions with the equity owners in their capacity as owners. The difference between fair value of any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.

(iii)

Associates and joint ventures

Associates are investees over which the Company and its subsidiaries have significant influence on the financial and operating decisions. A joint venture is an arrangement whereby the Company and its subsidiaries and other parties contractually agree to share control of the arrangement, and have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.

Investments in associates and joint ventures are initially recognized at cost and are subsequently measured using the equity method of accounting, unless it is classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale). The excess of the initial investment cost over the proportionate share of the fair value of identifiable net assets of investee acquired is included in the initial investment cost (Note 2(i)). Any shortfall of the initial investment cost to the proportionate share of the fair value of identifiable net assets of investee acquired is recognized in current period profit or loss and long-term investment cost is adjusted accordingly.

F-13

(b)

Consolidation (Continued)

(iii)

Associates and joint ventures (Continued)

When applying equity method, the Company and its subsidiaries adjust net profit or loss of the investees, including the fair value adjustments on the net identifiable assets of the associates and joint ventures and the adjustments to align with the accounting policies of the Company and the Company’s financial reporting periods. Current period investment income is then recognized based on the proportionate share of the Company and its subsidiaries in the investees’ net profit or loss. Net losses of investees are recognized to the extent of the carrying value of long-term equity investments and any other constituting long-term equity investments in investees that in substance form part of the investments in the investees. The Company and its subsidiaries continue to recognize investment losses and provision if they bear additional obligations which meet the recognition criteria.

The Company and its subsidiaries adjust the carrying amount of the investment and directly recognize into related other comprehensive income based on their proportionate share on the movements of the investees’ other comprehensive income except net profit or loss, given there is no change in shareholding ratio.

When the investees appropriate profit or declare dividends, the carrying value of long-term equity investments are reduced correspondingly by the proportionate share of the distribution.

The Company and its subsidiaries determine at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate or the joint venture is impaired. If this is the case, the Company and its subsidiaries calculate the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate or the joint venture and its carrying value and recognize the amount in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Profits or losses resulting from transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries and the associates and joint ventures are recognized in the Company and its subsidiaries’ financial statements only to the extent of the unrelated third party investor’s interests in the associates and joint ventures. Loss from transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries and the associates and joint ventures is fully recognized and not eliminated when there is evidence for asset impairment.

If an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or vice versa, retained interest is not remeasured. Instead, the investment continues to be accounted for under the equity method.

Gains and losses arising from dilution of investments in associates and joint ventures are recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

In the Company’s statement of financial position, investments in associates and joint ventures are stated at cost less provision for impairment losses (Note 2(j)) unless classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale). Investment income from investments in associates and joint ventures is accounted for by the Company based on dividends received and receivable.

Consolidation (Continued)

(iii)

Associates and joint ventures (Continued)

In all other cases, when the Company and its subsidiaries cease to have significant influence over an associate or joint control over a joint venture, it is accounted for as a disposal of the entire interest in that investee, with a resulting gain or loss being recognized in profit or loss. Any interest retained in that former investee at the date when significant influence or joint control is lost is recognized at fair value and this amount is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a financial asset (Note 2(k)).

(c)

Separate financial statements of the Company

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost less impairment unless classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale). Cost also includes direct attributable costs of investment. Investment income is recognized when the subsidiaries declare dividend.

(d)

Segment reporting

The Company and its subsidiaries determine the operating segment based on the internal organization structure, management requirement and internal reporting system for purposes of presenting reportable segment information.

An operating segment represents a component of the Company and its subsidiaries that meets all the conditions below: (i) the component earns revenue and incurs expenses in its daily operating activities; (ii) chief operating decision maker of the Company and its subsidiaries regularly reviews the operating results of the component in order to make decisions on allocating resources and assessing performance; (iii) the financial position, operating results, cash flows and other related financial information of the component are available. When the two or more operating segments exhibit similar economic characteristics and meet certain conditions, the Company and its subsidiaries combine them as one reportable segment.

(e)

Foreign currency translation

(i)

Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Company and its subsidiaries are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Renminbi (“RMB”), which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.

F-15

(e)

Foreign currency translation (Continued)

(ii)

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rate on the transaction dates. As at the end of reporting period, foreign currency monetary items are translated into functional currency at the spot exchange rate as at the end of reporting period. Exchange differences are directly expensed in current period profit or loss unless they arises from foreign currency loans borrowed for purchasing or construction of qualifying assets which is eligible for capitalization or they arise from monetary items that qualify as hedging instruments in cash flow hedges which are recorded in other comprehensive income to the extent that the hedge is effective.

(iii)

Foreign subsidiaries

The operating results and financial position of the foreign subsidiaries are translated into presentation currency as follows:

Asset and liability items in each statement of financial position of foreign operations are translated at the closing rates at the end of reporting period; equity items excluding retained earnings are translated at the spot exchange rates at the date of the transactions. Income and expense items in the statement of comprehensive income of the foreign operations are translated at average exchange rates approximating the rate on transaction dates. All resulting translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.

The cash flows denominated in foreign currencies and cash flows of overseas subsidiaries are translated at average exchange rates approximating the rates at the dates when cash flows incurred. The effect of the foreign currency translation on the cash and cash equivalents is presented in the statement of cash flows separately.

On the disposal of a foreign operation (that is, a disposal of the Company and its subsidiaries’ entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, a disposal involving loss of joint control over a joint ventures that includes a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of significant influence over an associate that includes a foreign operation), all of the exchange differences accumulated in equity in respect of that operation attributable to the equity holders of the Company are reclassified to profit or loss.

In the case of a partial disposal that does not result in the Company and its subsidiaries losing control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences are re-attributed to non-controlling interests and are not recognized in profit or loss. For all other partial disposals (that is, reductions in the Company and its subsidiaries’ ownership interest in associates or joint venture that includes a foreign operation that do not result in the Company and its subsidiaries losing significant influence or joint control), the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange difference is reclassified to profit or loss.

(f)

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment consists of dam, port facilities, buildings, electric utility plant in service, transportation facilities, others and construction-in-progress (“CIP”). Property, plant and equipment acquired or constructed are initially recognized at cost and carried at the net value of cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, unless classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale).

Cost of CIP comprises construction expenditures, other expenditures necessary for the purpose of preparing the CIP for its intended use, those borrowing costs incurred before the assets are ready for intended use that are eligible for capitalization. CIP is not depreciated until such time as the relevant asset is completed and ready for its intended use.

Subsequent costs about property, plant and equipment are included in the asset’s carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and its subsidiaries and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. Other subsequent expenditures not qualified for capitalization are charged in the current period profit or loss when they are incurred.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is provided based on book value of the asset less estimated residual value over the estimated useful life using straight-line method. For those impaired property, plant and equipment, depreciation is provided based on book value after deducting impairment provision over the estimated useful life of the asset. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

		Estimated useful lives

Dam		8 – 50 years
Port facilities		20 – 40 years
Buildings		8 – 30 years
Electric utility plant in service		5 – 30 years
Transportation facilities		8 – 27 years
Others		5 – 14 years

Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, the cost of the item is allocated on a reasonable basis between the parts and each part is depreciated separately. At the end of each year, the Company and its subsidiaries review the estimated useful lives, residual values and the depreciation method of the property, plant and equipment and make adjustment when necessary.

Property, plant and equipment is derecognized when it is disposed of, or is not expected to bring economic benefit through use or disposal. The amount of disposal income arising from sale, transfer, disposal or write-off of the property, plant and equipment less book value and related tax expenses is recorded in ‘operating expenses – others’ in the statement of comprehensive income.

The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is written down immediately to its recoverable amount when its carrying amount is greater than its recoverable amount (Note 2(j)).

Power generation license

The Company and its subsidiaries acquired the power generation license as part of the business combination with Tuas Power Ltd. (“Tuas Power”). The power generation license is initially recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. The license has an indefinite useful life and is not amortized. The assessment that the license has an indefinite useful life is based on the expected renewal of power generation license without significant restriction and cost, together with the consideration on related future cash flows generated and the expectation of continuous operations. It is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment loss. Useful life of the power generation license is reviewed by the Company and its subsidiaries each financial period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support the indefinite useful life assessment.

(h)

Mining rights

Mining rights are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses (Note 2(j)) and are amortized based on the units of production method utilizing only recoverable coal reserves as the depletion base, unless the mining rights are classified as held for sale (or included in a disposal group that is classified as held for sale).

(i)

Goodwill

Goodwill arising from the acquisitions of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures represents the excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the Company and its subsidiaries’ share of the net fair value of the net identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree at the date of acquisition.

Goodwill is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill arising on a business combination is allocated to each cash-generating unit, or groups of cash generating units, that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination and is tested annually for impairment (Note 2(j)).

On disposal of a cash generating unit during the year, any attributable amount of purchased goodwill is included in the calculation of the profit or loss on disposal.

(j)

Impairment of non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment, mining rights, intangible assets with definite useful lives, land use rights and long-term equity investments not accounted for as financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually regardless of whether there are indications of impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit (“CGU”) exceeds its recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less cost to sell. For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs.

F-18

2	Principal accounting policies (Continued)

(j)

Impairment of non-financial assets (Continued)

Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognized in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU (group of CGUs), and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU (group of CGUs) on a pro rata basis, except that the carrying value of an asset will not be reduced below its individual fair value less costs of disposal (if measurable) or value in use (if determinable).

(k)

Financial assets

Financial assets are classified in the following categories at initial recognition: at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables and available-for-sale. The classification depends on the intention and ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to hold the financial assets.

(i)

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading and designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term. Derivatives are classified as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as current assets if expected to be settled within 12 months; otherwise, they are classified as non-current.

(ii)

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables refer to the non-derivative financial assets for which there is no quotation in the active market with fixed or determinable amount. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of reporting period which are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are primarily included in as ‘accounts receivable’, ‘other receivables and assets’and ‘other non-current assets’ in the statement of financial position.

F-19

(k)

Financial assets (Continued)

(iii)

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in current assets when management intends to dispose of the available-for-sale financial assets within 12 months of the end of reporting period.

(iv)

Recognition and measurement

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized at fair value initially on trade-date – the date on which the Company and its subsidiaries commit to purchase or sell the asset. Transaction costs relating to financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are directly expensed in the profit or loss as incurred. Transaction costs for other financial assets are included in the carrying amount of the asset at initial recognition. Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and all risks and rewards related to the ownership of the financial assets have been transferred to the transferee.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and available-for-sale are subsequently measured at fair value. When an active market exists for a financial instrument, fair value is determined based on quoted prices in the active market. When no active market exists, fair value is determined by using valuation techniques. When applying valuation techniques, the Company and its subsidiaries maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recorded in ‘gain/(loss) on fair value changes of financial assets/liabilities’.

Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost. Loans and receivables are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Except for impairment loss and translation differences on monetary financial assets, changes in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognized in other comprehensive income. When these financial assets are derecognized, the accumulated fair value adjustments recognized in equity are included in the statement of comprehensive income as ‘other investment income’. Dividends on available-for-sale financial assets are recorded in ‘other investment income’ when the right of the Company and its subsidiaries to receive payments is established.

Financial assets (Continued)

(v)

Impairment of financial assets

Except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, the Company and its subsidiaries perform assessment on the book value of financial assets at the end of reporting period. Provision for impairment is made when there is objective evidence showing that a financial asset is impaired.

For investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, the impairment loss is measured by comparing the recoverable amount of the investment with its carrying amount. The impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.

In the case of equity investments classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the investment below its cost is evidence that the assets are impaired. If any such evidence exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss, measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognized in profit or loss, is removed from equity and recognized in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognized in the profit or loss on equity instruments are not reversed through the profit or loss.

When financial assets carried at amortized cost are impaired, the carrying amount of the financial assets is reduced to the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The impaired amount is recognized as assets impairment loss in the current period. If there is objective evidence that the value of the financial assets has recovered as a result of objective changes in circumstances occurring after the impairment loss was originally recognized, the originally recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss. For the impairment test of receivables, please refer to Note 2(l).

(vi)

Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities

Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at their fair value. Gain or loss arising from subsequent change in the fair value of derivative financial instruments is recognized in profit or loss except for the effective portions of gain or loss on the derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges which are recognized directly in other comprehensive income. Cash flow hedge represents a hedge against the exposure to variability in cash flows, which such cash flow is originated from a particular risk associated with highly probable forecast transactions and variable rate borrowings and which could affect the statement of comprehensive income.

F-21

Financial assets (Continued)

(vi)

Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities (Continued)

The hedged items of cash flow hedge are the designated items with respect to the risks associated with future cash flow change resulting from variability in cash flows of a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction or the foreign currency risk of a committed future transaction. Hedging instruments are designated derivative for cash flow hedge whose cash flows are expected to offset changes in the cash flows of a hedged item.

The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedge item is more than 12 months.

The Company and its subsidiaries document their assessments, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of hedged items. The Company and its subsidiaries apply ratio analysis method to evaluate the ongoing effectiveness of the cash flow hedge.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are recognized in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the statement of comprehensive income within ‘gain/(loss) on fair value changes of financial assets/liabilities’.

Amounts accumulated in equity are reclassified to the profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss. The gain or loss relating to the effective portion of interest rate swaps hedging variable rate borrowings is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income within ‘interest expense’. The gain or loss relating to the effective portion of exchange forward hedging foreign currency denominated payables is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income within ‘exchange gain/(loss) and bank charges, net’. However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset, the gains and losses previously deferred in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the asset. In the case where the Company and its subsidiaries expect all or a portion of net loss previously recognized directly in other comprehensive income will not be recovered in future financial periods, the irrecoverable portion will be reclassified into profit or loss.

When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the Company and its subsidiaries will discontinue hedge accounting. Any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in equity and is subsequently recognized when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognized in the profit or loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately transferred to the statement of comprehensive income within ‘gain/(loss) on fair value changes of financial assets/liabilities’.

F-22

2	Principal accounting policies (Continued)

(l)

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables, which primarily include accounts receivable, other receivables and other non-current assets, are recognized initially at fair value. Loans and receivables are subsequently measured at amortized cost less provision for doubtful debts using the effective interest method.

The Company and its subsidiaries establish an allowance for impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of receivables. The main components of this allowance are a specific loss component that relates to individually significant exposures, and a collective loss component established for groups of similar assets in respect of losses that have been incurred but not yet identified. The collective loss allowance is determined based on historical data of payment statistics for similar financial assets.

When there is objective evidence that the Company and its subsidiaries will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables, impairment test is performed and related provision for doubtful accounts is made based on the shortfall between carrying amounts and respective present value of estimated future cash flows. The carrying amounts of the receivables are reduced through the use of allowance accounts, and the amount of the provision is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income within ‘operating expenses – others’. When a receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account for the receivable. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against ‘operating expenses – others’ in the statement of comprehensive income.

(m)

Inventories

Inventories include fuel for power generation, materials for repairs and maintenance and spare parts, and are stated at lower of cost and net realizable values.

Inventories are initially recorded at cost and are charged to fuel costs or repairs and maintenance, respectively when used, or capitalized to property, plant and equipment when installed, as appropriate, using weighted average cost basis. Cost of inventories includes costs of purchase and transportation costs.

When the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of the inventory, the gains and losses previously deferred in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the inventory.

Provision for inventory obsolescence is determined by the excess of cost over net realizable value. Net realizable values are determined based on the estimated selling price less estimated conversion costs during power generation, selling expenses and related taxes in the ordinary course of business.

(n)

Related parties

Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or jointly control of the same third party; one party is controlled or jointly controlled by a third party and the other party is an associate or a joint venture of the same third party.

(o)

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents listed in the statement of cash flows represents cash in hand, call deposits held with banks and other financial institutions, and other short-term (3 months or less), highly-liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flow.

(p)

Borrowings

Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value less transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company and its subsidiaries have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the end of reporting period.

(q)

Borrowing costs

General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets. The capitalization of borrowing costs as part of the cost of a qualifying asset commences when expenditure for the asset is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended or ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are interrupted or complete.

The amount of specific borrowing costs capitalized is net of the investment income on any temporary investment of the funds pending expenditure on the asset.

All other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

(r)

Payables

Payables primarily include accounts payable and other liabilities, and are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Taxation

(i)

Value-added tax (“VAT”)

The domestic power, heat and coal sales of the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to VAT. VAT payable is determined by applying 17% (or 13% on heat) on the taxable revenue after offsetting deductible input VAT of the period.

According to the relevant regulations of Ministry of Finance of PRC and State Administration of Taxation, certain pilot regions have been under the Pilot Program for the transformation from Business Tax to VAT since 1 January 2012 and all other regions since 1 August 2013 for specified industry. The applicable tax rate of VAT for the Company and its subsidiaries in respect of the lease of tangible movable properties, transportation industry and other modern services industry are 17%, 11% and 6%, respectively.

(ii)

Goods and service tax (“GST”)

The power sales of the subsidiaries in Singapore are subject to goods and service tax of the country where they operate. GST payable is determined by applying 7% on the taxable revenue after offsetting deductible GST of the period.

(iii)

Current and deferred income tax

The income tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred income tax. Income tax expense is recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the differences between tax bases of assets and liabilities and respective book values (temporary differences). For deductible tax losses or tax credit that can be brought forward in accordance with tax law requirements for deduction of taxable income in subsequent years, it is considered as temporary differences and related deferred income tax assets are recognized. No deferred income tax liability is recognized for temporary difference arising from initial recognition of goodwill. For those temporary differences arising from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a non-business combination transaction that affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (or deductible loss) at the time of the transaction, no deferred income tax asset and liability is recognized. The temporary differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that, in the case of taxable differences, the Company and its subsidiaries control the timing of the reversal and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future, or in the case of deductible differences, unless it is probable that they will reverse in the future.

Taxation (Continued)

(iii)

Current and deferred income tax (Continued)

The Company and its subsidiaries recognize deferred income tax assets to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available to offset the deductible temporary difference, deductible tax loss and tax credit.

At the end of reporting period, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or liability is settled.

The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and is reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow the related tax benefit to be utilised. Any such reduction is reversed to the extent that it becomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available.

Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are offset when meeting all the conditions below:

(1)

The Company and its subsidiaries have the legal enforceable right to offset current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities;

(2)

Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are related to the income tax levied by the same tax authority of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Employee benefits

Employee benefits include all expenditures relating to the employees for their services. The Company and its subsidiaries recognize employee benefits as liabilities during the accounting period when employees render services and allocates to related cost of assets and expenses based on different beneficiaries.

In connection with pension obligations, the Company and its subsidiaries operate various defined contribution plans in accordance with the local conditions and practices in the countries and provinces in which they operate. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Company and its subsidiaries pay fixed contributions into a separate publicly administered pension insurance plan on mandatory and voluntary bases. The Company and its subsidiaries have no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. The contributions are recognized as employee benefit when incurred. Prepaid contributions are recognized as assets to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payment is available.

F-26

2	Principal accounting policies (Continued)

(u)

Government grants

Government grants are recognized when the Company and its subsidiaries fulfill the conditions attaching to them and they are probable to be received. When government grants are received in the form of monetary assets, they are measured at the amount received or receivable. When the grant is in the form of non-monetary assets, it is measured at fair value. When fair value cannot be measured reliably, nominal amount is assigned.

Asset-related government grant is recognized as deferred income and is amortized evenly in profit or loss over the useful lives of related assets.

Income-related government grant that is used to compensate subsequent related expenses or losses of the Company and its subsidiaries are recognized as deferred income and recorded in the profit or loss when related expenses or losses incurred. When the grant is used to compensate expenses or losses that were already incurred, they are directly recognized in current period profit or loss.

(v)

Revenue and income recognition

Revenue and income are recognized based the following methods:

Revenue and income are recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company and its subsidiaries and the amount of the revenue and income can be measured reliably.

(i)

Electricity sales revenue

Electricity sales revenue represents the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for electricity sold in the ordinary course of the activities of the Company and its subsidiaries (net of VAT or GST). Revenue is earned and recognized upon transmission of electricity to the customers or the power grid controlled and owned by the respective regional or provincial grid companies.

(ii)

Coal sales revenue

Interest income

Interest income from deposits is recognized on a time proportion basis using effective interest method. Interest income from the finance lease is recognized on a basis that reflects a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the finance lease.

(w)

Leases

Leases where all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the assets are in substance transferred to the lessees are classified as finance leases. All other leases are operating leases.

(i)

Operating leases (lessee)

Operating lease expenses are capitalized or expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The cost of acquiring land held under an operating lease is amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease term.

(ii)

Finance lease

The Company and its subsidiaries recognize the aggregate of the minimum lease receipts and the initial direct costs on the lease inception date as the receivable. The difference between the aggregate of the minimum lease receipts and the initial direct costs and sum of their respective present values is recognized as unrealized finance income. The Company and its subsidiaries adopt the effective interest method to allocate such unrealized finance income over the lease term. At the end of reporting period, the Company and its subsidiaries present the net amount of finance lease receivable after deducting any unrealized finance income in non-current assets and current assets, respectively.

Please refer to Note 2(k)(v) for impairment test on finance lease receivables.

Where the Company and its subsidiaries acquire the use of assets under finance leases, the amounts representing the fair value of the leased asset, or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments, of such assets are included in fixed assets and the corresponding liabilities, net of finance charges, are recorded as obligations under finance leases. Depreciation is provided at rates which write off the cost or valuation of the assets over the term of the relevant lease or, where it is likely the Company and its subsidiaries will obtain ownership of the asset, the life of the asset, as set out in note 2(f). Impairment losses are accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy as set out in note 2(j). Finance charges implicit in the lease payments are charged to profit or loss over the period of the leases so as to produce an approximately constant periodic rate of charge on the remaining balance of the obligations for each accounting period. Contingent rentals are charged to profit or loss in the accounting period in which they are incurred.

Financial guarantee contracts

The Company issues financial guarantee contracts that transfer significant insurance risk. Financial guarantee contracts are those contracts that require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holders for losses they incur because specified debtors fail to make payments when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of debt instruments. Where the Company issues a financial guarantee, the fair value of the guarantee is initially recognized as deferred income within accounts payable and other liabilities. The fair value of financial guarantees issued at the time of issuance is determined by reference to fees charged in an arm’s length transaction for similar services, when such information is obtainable, or is otherwise estimated by reference to interest rate differentials, by comparing the actual rates charged by lenders when the guarantee is made available with the estimated rates that lenders would have charged, had the guarantees not been available, where reliable estimates of such information can be made. Where consideration is received or receivable for the issuance of the guarantee, the consideration is recognized in accordance with the Company’s policies applicable to that category of asset. Where no such consideration is received or receivable, an immediate expense is recognized in profit or loss on initial recognition of any deferred income. The amount of the guarantee initially recognized as deferred income is amortized in profit or loss over the term of the guarantee as income from financial guarantees issued.

Dividend distribution

Dividend distribution to the shareholders of the Company and its subsidiaries is recognized as a liability in the period when the dividend is approved in the shareholders’ meeting.

3	Financial and capital risks management

(a)

Financial risk management

Risk management, including the management on the financial risks, is carried out under the instructions of the Strategic Committee of Board of Directors and the Risk Management Team. The Company works out general principles for overall management as well as management policies covering specific areas. In considering the importance of risks, the Company identifies and evaluates risks at head office and individual power plant level, and requires analysis and proper communication of the information collected periodically.

SinoSing Power and its subsidiaries are subject to financial risks that are different from the entities operating within the PRC. They have a series of controls in place to maintain the cost of risks occurring and the cost of managing the risks at an acceptable level. Management continually monitors the risk management process to ensure that an appropriate balance between risk and control is achieved. SinoSing Power and its subsidiaries have their written policies and financial authorization limits in place which are reviewed periodically. These financial authorization limits seek to mitigate and eliminate operational risks by setting approval thresholds required for entering into contractual obligations and investments.

Market risk

(1)

Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk of the entities operating within the PRC primarily arises from loans denominated in foreign currencies of the Company and its subsidiaries. SinoSing Power and its subsidiaries are exposed to foreign exchange risk on accounts payable and other payables that are denominated primarily in US$, a currency other than Singapore dollar (“S$”), their functional currency. Please refer to Note 23, 26 and 29 for details. The Company and its subsidiaries manage exchange risk through closely monitoring interest and exchange market.

As at 31 December 2015, if RMB had weakened/strengthened by 5% (2014 and 2013: 5%) against US$ and 3% (2014 and 2013: 3%) against EUR (“€”) with all other variables constant, the Company and its subsidiaries would further recognize exchange loss/gain amounted RMB144 million (2014 and 2013: RMB155 million and RMB186 million) and RMB10 million (2014 and 2013: RMB13 million and RMB19 million), respectively. The ranges of such sensitivity disclosed above were based on the observation on the historical trend of related exchange rates during the previous year under analysis.

As at 31 December 2015, if S$ had weakened/strengthened by 10% (2014 and 2013: 10%) against US$ with all other variables constant, the Company and its subsidiaries would further recognize exchange loss/gain amounted RMB2 million (2014 and 2013: RMB6 million and RMB12 million), respectively. The ranges of such sensitivity disclosed above were based on the management’s experience and forecast.

SinoSing Power and its subsidiaries also are exposed to foreign exchange risk on fuel purchases that are denominated primarily in US$. They substantially hedge their estimated foreign currency exposure in respect of forecast fuel purchases over the following three months using primarily foreign currency contracts.

(2)

Price risk

The available-for-sale financial assets of the Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to equity security price risk.

Detailed information relating to the available-for-sale financial assets is disclosed in Note 10. The Company has a supervisor in the supervisory committee of the most significant investment in available-for-sale financial assets (China Yangtze Power Co., Ltd. (“Yangtze Power”)) and may exercise protective rights. The Company also closely monitors the pricing trends in the open market in determining its long-term strategic stakeholding decisions.

Cash flow interest rate risk

The interest rate risk of the Company and its subsidiaries primarily arises from long-term loans. Loans borrowed at variable rates expose the Company and its subsidiaries to cash flow interest rate risk. The exposures of these risks are disclosed in Note 23 to the financial statements. The Company and its subsidiaries have entered into interest rate swap agreements with banks to hedge against a portion of cash flow interest rate risk.

As at 31 December 2015, if interest rates on RMB-denominated borrowings had been 50 basis points higher/lower with all other variables held constant, interest expense for the year would have been RMB410 million (2014 and 2013: RMB380 million and RMB389 million) higher/lower. If interest rates on US$-denominated borrowings had been 50 basis points higher/lower with all other variables held constant, interest expense for the year would have been RMB8 million (2014 and 2013: RMB8 million and RMB9 million) higher/lower. If interest rates on S$-denominated borrowings had been 100 basis points higher/lower with all other variables held constant, interest expense for the year would have been RMB60 million (2014 and 2013: RMB58 million and RMB64 million) higher/lower. The ranges of such sensitivity disclosed above were based on the observation on the historical trend of related interest rates during the previous year under analysis.

The Company has entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement to hedge against cash flow interest rate risk of a loan. According to the interest rate swap agreement, the Company agrees with the counterparty to settle the difference between fixed contract rates and floating-rate interest amounts calculated by reference to the agreed notional amounts quarterly until 2019. Tuas Power Generation Pte Ltd. (“TPG”) also entered into a number of floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreements to hedge against cash flow interest rate risk of a loan. According to the interest rate swap agreements, TPG agrees with the counterparty to settle the difference between fixed contract rates and floating-rate interest amounts calculated by reference to the agreed notional amount semi-annually until 2020. Please refer to Note 14 for details.

(ii)

Credit risk

Credit risk arises from bank deposits, accounts receivable, other receivables and other non-current assets. The maximum exposures of other non-current assets, other receivables, accounts receivable and bank deposits are disclosed in Note 16, 18, 19 and 34 to the financial statements, respectively.

Bank deposits are placed with reputable banks and financial institutions. In addition, a significant portion is deposited with a non-bank financial institution which is a related party of the Company. The Company has a director on the Board of this non-bank financial institution and exercises influence. Corresponding maximum exposures of these bank deposits are disclosed in Note 35(a)(i) to the financial statements.

Credit risk (Continued)

Most of the power plants of the Company and its subsidiaries operating within the PRC sell electricity generated to their sole customers, the power grid companies of their respective provinces or regions where the power plants operate. These power plants communicate with their individual grid companies periodically and believe that adequate provision for doubtful accounts have been made in the financial statements.

Singapore subsidiaries derive revenue mainly from sale of electricity to the National Electricity Market of Singapore operated by Energy Market Company Pte Ltd., which does not have high credit risk. Singapore subsidiaries also derive revenue mainly from retailing electricity to consumers with monthly consumption of more than 4,000kWh. These customers engage in a wide spectrum of manufacturing and commercial activities in a variety of industries. Singapore subsidiaries hold cash deposits of RMB172.51 million (2014: RMB157.80 million) and guarantees from creditworthy financial institutions as a security from these customers.

(iii)

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk management is to primarily ensure the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to meet its liabilities as and when they are fall due. The liquidity reserve comprises the undrawn borrowing facility and cash and cash equivalents available as at each month end in meeting its liabilities.

The Company and its subsidiaries maintain flexibility in funding by cash generated by their operating activities and availability of committed credit facilities.

Financial liabilities due within 12 months are presented as current liabilities in the statement of financial position. The cash flows of derivative financial liabilities, and repayment schedules of the long-term loans and long-term bonds are disclosed in Note 14, 23 and 24, respectively.

Fair value measurements

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:

Level 1- Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2- Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices).

Level 3- Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs).

Fair value estimation (Continued)

(i)

Fair value measurements (Continued)

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the end of reporting period. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Company and its subsidiaries is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1. As at 31 December 2015 and 2014, instrument included in level 1 is an equity investment in Yangtze Power classified as available for sale.

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

The forward exchange contracts and fuel oil swaps are both valued using quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments.

The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on observable yield curves.

Instruments included in level 2 comprise forward exchange contracts, fuel oil swaps and interest rate swaps.

Yangtze Power suspended trading of its stock from 12 June 2015 to 15 November 2015 in Shanghai Stock Exchange, and as a result there is no quoted market price available during the period. The Company determined the fair value of available-for-sale financial asset by considering observable market data for comparable companies, and transferred the available-for-sale financial asset from level 1 to level 2 fair value hierarchy. After resumption of trading on 16 November 2015, the Company transferred the available-for sale financial asset from level 2 to level 1 fair value hierarchy. Except for above, during the year ended 31 December 2015 there is no transfers of financial instruments between level 1 and level 2, or transfers into or out of level 3.

(ii)

Fair value disclosures

The carrying value less provision for doubtful accounts of accounts receivable, other receivables and assets, accounts payable and other liabilities, short-term bonds and short-term loans approximated their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the Company and its subsidiaries for similar financial instruments.

Fair value disclosures (Continued)

The estimated fair value of long-term loans and long-term bonds (both including current maturities) was approximately RMB78.31 billion and RMB23.15 billion as at 31 December 2015 (2014: RMB64.89 billion and RMB28.03 billion), respectively. The aggregate book value of these liabilities was approximately RMB78.38 billion and RMB22.74 billion as at 31 December 2015 (2014: RMB65.03 billion and RMB27.75 billion), respectively.

(c)

Capital risk management

The objectives of the Company and its subsidiaries when managing capital are to safeguard the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries in continuing as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

The Company and its subsidiaries monitor capital by using debt ratio analysis. This ratio is calculated as total liabilities (sum of current liabilities and non-current liabilities) divided by total assets as shown in the consolidated statement of financial position. During 2015, the strategy of the Company and its subsidiaries remained unchanged from 2014. The debt ratio of the Company and its subsidiaries as at 31 December 2015 was 67.08% (2014: 69.19%).

4	Critical accounting estimates and judgments

Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The Company and its subsidiaries make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

(a)

Accounting estimates on impairment of goodwill and power generation license

The Company and its subsidiaries perform test annually whether goodwill and power generation license have suffered any impairment in accordance with the accounting policies stated in Notes 2(g) and 2(j), respectively. The recoverable amounts of CGU or CGUs to which goodwill and the power generation license have been allocated are determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations require the use of estimates (Note 12 and 15). It is reasonably possible, based on existing knowledge, that outcomes within the next financial period that are different from assumptions could require a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of goodwill and power generation license.

F-36

4	Critical accounting estimates and judgments (Continued)

(a)

Accounting estimates on impairment of goodwill and power generation license (Continued)

For goodwill allocated to CGUs in the PRC, changes of assumptions in tariff and fuel price could have affected the results of goodwill impairment assessment. As at 31 December 2015, if tariff had decreased by 1% or 5% from management’s estimates with other variables constant with the expectations, the Company and its subsidiaries would have to further recognize impairment against goodwill by approximately RMB14 million and RMB180 million, respectively. If fuel price had increased by 1% or 5% from the management’s estimates with other variables constant with the expectations, the Company and its subsidiaries would have to further recognize impairment against goodwill by RMB11 million and RMB59 million, respectively.

For the sensitivity analysis of power generation license of Tuas Power and goodwill, please refer to Note 12 and 15.

(b)

Useful life of power generation license

As at year end, management of the Company and its subsidiaries assessed that the estimated useful life for its power generation license is indefinite. This assessment is based on the expected renewal of power generation license without significant restriction and cost, together with the consideration on related future cash flows generated and the expectation of continuous operations. Based on existing knowledge, outcomes within the next financial period that are different from assumptions could require a change to the carrying amount of power generation license.

(c)

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

Management of the Company and its subsidiaries determines the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment and respective depreciation. The accounting estimate is based on the expected wears and tears incurred during power generation. Wears and tears can be significantly different following renovation each time. When the useful lives differ from the original estimated useful lives, management will adjust the estimated useful lives accordingly. It is possible that the estimates made based on existing experience are different to the actual outcomes within the next financial period and could cause a material adjustment to the depreciation and carrying amount of property, plant and equipment.

(d)

Estimated impairment of property, plant and equipment and mining rights

The Company and its subsidiaries test whether property, plant and equipment and mining rights suffered any impairment whenever an impairment indication exists. In accordance with Note 2(j), an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount. It is reasonably possible, based on existing knowledge, that outcomes within the next financial period that are different from assumptions could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and mining rights.

F-37

4	Critical accounting estimates and judgments (Continued)

(d)

Estimated impairment of property, plant and equipment and mining rights (Continued)

Changes of assumptions in tariff and fuel price will affect the result of property, plant and equipment and mining rights impairment assessment. For power plants assets that are subject to impairment testing, as at 31 December 2015, if tariff had decreased by 1% or 5% from management’s estimates with other variables constant with the expectations, the Company and its subsidiaries would have to further recognize impairment against property, plant and equipment by approximately RMB224 million and RMB1,566 million, respectively. If fuel price had increased by 1% or 5% from the management’s estimates with other variables constant with the expectations, the impairment against property, plant and equipment and mining rights of the Company and its subsidiaries would decrease totaling by approximately RMB112 million and RMB54 million, respectively.

(e)

Approval of construction of new power plants

The receiving of the ultimate approvals from National Development and Reform Commission (“NDRC”) on certain power plant construction projects of the Company and its subsidiaries is a critical estimate and judgment of the directors. Such estimates and judgments are based on initial approval documents received as well as their understanding of the projects. Based on historical experience, the directors believe that the Company and its subsidiaries will receive final approvals from NDRC on the related power plant projects. Deviation from the estimate and judgment could result in significant adjustment to the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment.

(f)

Deferred tax assets

The Company and its subsidiaries recognized the deferred tax assets to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the asset can be utilized, using tax rates that are expected to be applied in the period when the asset is recovered. The management assesses the deferred tax assets based on the expected amount and timing of future taxable profit, the enacted tax laws and applicable tax rates. It is reasonably possible, based on existing knowledge, the outcomes within the next financial period that are different from assumptions could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of deferred tax assets.

Directors and certain senior management of the Company perform the function as the chief operating decision maker (collectively referred to as the “senior management”). The senior management reviews the internal reporting of the Company and its subsidiaries in order to assess performance and allocate resources. The Company has determined the operating segments based on these reports. The reportable segments of the Company are the PRC power segment, Singapore segment and all other segments (mainly including port and transportation operations). No operating segments have been aggregated to form a reportable segment.

Senior management assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of profit before income tax expense under China Accounting Standard for Business Enterprises (“PRC GAAP”) excluding dividend income received from available-for-sale financial assets and operating results of the centrally managed and resource allocation functions of headquarters (“Segment results”). Other information provided, except as noted below, to the senior management of the Company is measured under PRC GAAP.

Segment assets exclude prepaid income tax, deferred income tax assets, available-for-sale financial assets and assets related to the centrally managed and resource allocation functions of headquarters that are not attributable to any operating segment (“corporate assets”). Segment liabilities exclude current income tax liabilities, deferred income tax liabilities and liabilities related to the centrally managed and resource allocation functions of headquarters that are not attributable to any operating segment (“corporate liabilities”). These are part of the reconciliation to total assets and liabilities of consolidated statement of financial position.

*	The Company completed the acquisition of equity interests of ten companies from Huaneng Group and HIPDC, see Note 39 for details. As the acquisition is a business combination under common control, the transaction is accounted for under merger accounting method under PRC GAAP. The assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations are measured at the carrying amounts of the acquirees in the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate controlling party on the acquisition date. The operating results for all periods presented are retrospectively restated as if the current structure and operations resulting from the acquisition had been in existence from the date when the acquirees first became under the control of the same ultimate controlling party. Therefore the relevant comparative figures in the segment information were restated under PRC GAAP while the acquisition is accounted for using acquisition method under IFRS.

**	Other GAAP adjustments above primarily represented the classification adjustments and other adjustments. Other than the classification adjustments, the differences will be gradually eliminated following subsequent depreciation and amortization of related assets or the extinguishment of liabilities.

Huaneng Yingkou Port Limited Liability Company (“Yingkou Port”) was previously a subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the shareholder agreement signed in June, 2008, between the Company and the other 50% shareholder, the Company was given the rights and ability to solely direct the relevant activities, including all financial and operating decisions, whilst the Company holds 50% equity interest in Yingkou Port.

For the purpose of better utilization of the expertise of both shareholders in terms of port operation and management, the Company and the other shareholder agreed to optimize the business model of Yingkou Port and amended the articles of association and shareholder agreement of Yingkou Port on 1 January 2015. In accordance with the amended articles of association and shareholder agreement, the Company’s rights and ability to solely direct significant financial and operating decisions have been removed, and therefore, Yingkou Port became a joint venture and is jointly controlled by the Company and the other shareholder.

Interest capitalization

Interest expense of approximately RMB770 million (2014 and 2013: RMB557 million and RMB498 million) arising on borrowings for the construction of property, plant and equipment was capitalized during the year and was included in ‘Additions’ in property, plant and equipment. The weighted average capitalization rate was approximately 5.31% (2014 and 2013: 5.98% and 5.74%) per annum.

Impairment

In 2015, impairment losses for certain property, plant and equipment of approximately RMB1,048 million have been recognized. Factors leading to the impairment of operating projects primarily included lower utilization hours and tariff of two coal-fired power plants as a result of over supply of electricity in two provinces, as well as low utilization hours of a hydropower plant as a result of low level of water inflow to the main dam. Discount rates of 7.86%, 8.81% and 7.60% were adopted in the value in use model in the determination of the recoverable amounts for the two coal-fired power plants and the hydropower plant respectively. Besides, as a result of the low demand of coal-fired power in local market, management estimated the possibility of further development of a coal-fired power project was remote, therefore the project under construction with a carrying value of RMB368 million was fully impaired in 2015.

In 2014, impairment losses for certain property, plant and equipment of approximately RMB1,359 million have been recognized. Factors leading to the impairment primarily included continuous losses and external environment deterioration in respect of port industry, continuous low level of water inflow to the main dam of a hydropower plant and shut-down of a coal-fired power plant. Discount rates of 9.54%, 7.24% and 8.68% were adopted in the value in use model in the determination of the recoverable amounts for the port plant, hydropower plant and coal-fired power plant respectively.

In 2013, impairment losses for certain property, plant and equipment of approximately RMB473 million have been recognized. Factors leading to the impairment primarily included shut-down of power plants and the continuous deterioration in utilization of certain non-power assets in a foreign subsidiary. Discount rates of 8.80% and 12.84% were adopted in the value in use model in the determination of the recoverable amounts for the coal-fired power plants and for the CGU of the foreign subsidiary respectively.

Property, plant and equipment held under finance leases

Movement:
Currency translation differences		(41,784	)		(116,210	)

End of the year		3,679,175			3,720,959

The Company and its subsidiaries acquired the power generation license in connection with the acquisition of Tuas Power. The power generation license was initially recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Tuas Power operates power plants in Singapore pursuant to the license granted by the Energy Market Authority for a period of 30 years from 2003 until 2032. The license was extended to 2044 during 2011 with minimal costs and is subject to further renewal. The Company and its subsidiaries expect that the applicable rules and regulations surrounding the renewal can be complied with based on the current market framework. The Company and its subsidiaries assessed the useful life of the power generation license at 31 December 2015 as indefinite and therefore the license is not amortized.

Impairment test of power generation license

Power generation license belongs to and has been assigned to Tuas Power, a CGU. The recoverable amount of the CGU is determined based on value-in-use calculation. Management prepared the impairment model based on budget approved by the Board and various factors, such as inflation, power demand and other factors as well as the terminal value.

Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculation:

Management has assessed that, one of the most sensitive key assumptions is the discount rate which was arrived at based on weighted average cost of capital. The discount rate applied in determining the recoverable amounts of the CGU was 7.62% (31 December 2014: 7.29%). An absolute increase in the discount rate of 0.5% (31 December 2014: 0.5%) would result in approximately RMB1,704 million (31 December 2014: RMB1,540 million) decrease in the recoverable amount of the CGU.

Other key assumptions include projection of its business performance based on estimation of gross margin from electricity sold, volume of electricity sold and other operating expenses, which are largely based on a combination of past performance of the CGU, its expectation of market developments and consistency with forecasts included in industry reports. On average, the growth rates of 3.0% was used in consideration of future expansion plans and new development projects as part of the long-term strategy. Cash flows beyond the terminal year was extrapolated using a growth rate of 2%.

Based on the assessments, no impairment was provided for the power generation license.

13	Mining rights

The movements in the carrying amount of mining rights during the years are as follow:

	2015			2014

End of the year		1,646,271			1,922,655

Cost		2,406,567			1,922,655
Accumulated impairment losses		(760,296	)		-

Net book value		1,646,271			1,922,655

In 2015, due to the decrease of coal market price, impairment loss for mining rights of approximately RMB760 million have been recognized for two subsidiaries of the Company. The discount rate applied in determining the recoverable amounts of the mining rights in the value in use model were 10.46% and 10.62%.

For the years ended 31 December 2015, 2014 and 2013, no material ineffective portion was recognized in the profit or loss arising from cash flow hedges.

The Company uses an interest rate swap contract to hedge its interest rate risk against one of its variable rate loans. The notional principal amount of the outstanding interest rate swap contract at 31 December 2015 was US$240 million (RMB equivalents of RMB1,558.46 million) (2014: US$278 million (RMB equivalents of RMB1,701.08 million)). Through this arrangement, the Company pays an annual fixed interest of 4.4% while the original annual floating interest expense (6-month LIBOR+1%) attached in the loan is offset by the receivable leg of the interest rate swap. Such a swap is settled on a quarterly basis from September 2009 to September 2019.

TPG uses exchange forward contracts to hedge its foreign exchange risk arising from highly probable forecast purchase transactions. It also uses fuel oil swap contracts to hedge its fuel price risk arising from highly probable forecast purchases of fuel purchases.

TPG also uses various interest rate swap contracts to hedge floating semi-annual interest payments on borrowings with maturity dates up to 2020. The notional principal amount of these outstanding interest rate swap contracts at 31 December 2015 was S$1,399.8 million (RMB equivalents of RMB6,421.8 million) (2014: S$1,440.9 million (RMB equivalents of RMB6,685.2 million)). Through these arrangements, TPG swaps original floating interest (6-month SOR) to annual fixed interest determined by individual swap contracts. Such swap contracts are settled semi-annually from September 2011 to March 2020. As at 31 December 2015, these interest rate swap contracts are carried on the consolidated statements of financial position as financial asset of RMB 2.69 million and financial liability of RMB41.12 million (2014: financial liability of RMB223.71 million).

Impairment tests for goodwill

Goodwill is allocated to the CGUs of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The carrying amounts of major goodwill allocated to individual CGUs are as follows:

	2015		2014

PRC Power segment:
Hainan Power		506,336		-
Wuhan Power		518,484		-
Yueyang Power Company		100,907		100,907
Beijing Cogeneration		95,088		95,088
Yangliuqing Cogeneration		151,459		151,459
Diandong Energy		-		1,105,649

Singapore segment:
Tuas Power		9,922,584		10,035,274

The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on value-in-use calculations. For domestic CGUs, these calculations use cash flow projections based on management’s financial budgets covering periods of no more than five years. The Company expects cash flows beyond such periods will be similar to that of the respective final forecast years on existing production capacity.

For the goodwill allocated to Tuas Power, management has based their assessment of recoverable amount on value-in-use calculations. Management prepared the impairment model based on budget approved and various factors, such as inflation, power demand and other factors as well as the terminal value. On average, the growth rates of 3.0% was used in consideration of future expansion plans and new development projects as part of the long-term strategy. Cash flows beyond the terminal year was extrapolated using a growth rate of 2.0%.

Discount rates used for value-in-use calculations:

PRC Power segment		8.31% ~ 9.02%
Singapore segment		7.62%

Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations:

Key assumptions applied in the impairment tests include the expected tariff rates, demands of electricity in specific regions where these power plants are located, fuel cost and the expected output schedule of coal mine under construction and selling price of coal. Management determined these key assumptions based on past performance and its expectations on market development. The discount rates used reflect specific risks relating to individual CGUs. Management believes that any reasonably possible change in any of these key assumptions on which recoverable amounts of individual CGUs are based may cause carrying amounts of individual CGUs to exceed their recoverable amounts. Please refer to Note 4 and 12 for details of respective sensitivity analysis on domestic and oversea CGU impairment testing.

15	Goodwill (Continued)

In 2015, due to continuous operating loss of the power plant assets as a result of oversupply of local power market and intense competition which led to lower utilization hours and tariff, and the effect of deteriorating coal market price on the coal assets under construction, the goodwill arising from the acquisition of Diandong Energy was fully impaired based on the impairment testing result. The above mentioned goodwill impairment provided in 2015 amounted to approximately RMB1,106 million in total. For Singapore segment, the decrease of goodwill in respect of Tuas Power was due to currency translation differences.

In 2014, due to the delay in coal mine construction schedule and continuous lower utilization of the power plants in Yunnan province, the goodwill arising from the acquisition of Diandong Energy and Diandong Yuwang were impaired based on the impairment testing result. The above mentioned goodwill impairment provided in 2014 amounted to approximately RMB641 million in total. For Singapore segment, the decrease of goodwill in respect of Tuas Power was due to currency translation differences.

In 2013, due to the external environment deterioration in respect of shipping market, the utilization of port was below expectation and the price was at a lower level. Based on the impairment testing results, the goodwill arising from the acquisition of Luoyuanwan Harbor, Qingdao Port and Hualu Sea Transportation were fully impaired. Besides, the goodwill arising from the acquisition of Enshi Hydropower was assessed as fully impaired due to the fact that the capital expenditure of the power plant was higher than the original expectation. The above mentioned goodwill impairment provided in 2013 approximately amounted to RMB586 million. For Singapore segment, the goodwill in respect of Tuas Power was impaired RMB392 million in 2013 as a result of the power market change in Singapore.

Huaneng Group is a state-owned enterprise. In accordance with the revised IAS 24, “Related Party Disclosures”, government-related enterprises, other than entities under Huaneng Group, which the PRC government has control, joint control or significant influence over are also considered as related parties of the Company and its subsidiaries (“other government-related enterprises”).

The majority of the business activities of the Company and its subsidiaries are conducted with other government-related enterprises. For the purpose of the related party balances and transactions disclosure, the Company and its subsidiaries have established procedures to determine, to the extent possible, the identification of the ownership structure of its customers and suppliers as to whether they are government-related enterprises. However, many government-related enterprises have a multi-layered corporate structure and the ownership structures change over time as a result of transfers and privatization programs. Nevertheless, management believes that all material related party balances and transactions have been adequately disclosed.

In addition to the related party information shown elsewhere in these financial statements, the following is a summary of significant related party transactions entered into in the ordinary course of business between the Company and its subsidiaries and their related parties during the year and significant balances arising from related party transactions as at year end.
