BEIJING, Jan. 10, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Huaneng Power International, Inc. ("HPI", the "Company") (NYSE: HNP; HKEx: 902; SSE: 600011) today announced its power generation in 2011.

According to the Company's preliminary statistics, as of 31 December 2011, the Company's total power generation within China on consolidated basis amounted to 313.554 billion kWh, representing an increase of 22.03% over the same period last year. Total electricity sold amounted to 295.717 billion kWh, representing an increase of 22.30% over the same period last year.

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

    1. The Company seized the favourable opportunity of the good economic trend
       and greater national power demand in the PRC in 2011 and expanded various
       marketing channels, enlarged the market share, optimized the maintenance
       of generation units, optimized the power generation structure, and
       increased power generation with marginal contribution; and
    2. Various new generating units of the Company had commenced operation since
       the second half year of 2010, and the Company also completed the
       acquisition of Zhanhua Co-generation and Diandong Energy, thereby
       increasing the Company's market share.

The power generation and electricity sold by each of the Company's domestic power plants in 2011 are listed below (in billion kWh):
