Business
Guangdong Electric Power Development Co., Ltd. (000539.SZ) engages in the investment, construction, operation, and management of electric power projects in the People's Republic of China, primarily generating and selling electricity through coal-fired, natural gas, biomass, wind, solar photovoltaic, hydropower, and other sources; it also provides repair services, heat supply, labor services, and technical advice related to power operations. The company operates predominantly in Guangdong Province with a total installed capacity encompassing thermal, clean energy, and renewable projects, serving industrial, commercial, and residential customers via grid connections. Founded in 1992 and headquartered at the South Tower of Yuedian Plaza in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, it functions as a subsidiary of Guangdong Energy Group Co., Ltd., which holds a controlling stake of approximately 67%. The company's core offerings include coal-fired power plants for baseload generation; natural gas-fired units for flexible peaking power; biomass facilities utilizing agricultural waste; onshore and offshore wind farms totaling around 2.2 million kW offshore and 1.2 million kW onshore; photovoltaic projects exceeding 2.4 million kW; and hydropower stations contributing to renewable output. It maintains a diversified portfolio with approximately 5.8 million kW of wind, photovoltaic, and other new energy capacity as of mid-2024, alongside traditional thermal assets, supporting annual on-grid electricity sales exceeding 50 billion kWh to the regional grid. In the first half of 2024, the company added 834,500 kW of new energy installed capacity, including 600,000 kW of wind power and 234,500 kW of photovoltaics, boosting feed-in electricity amid falling fuel prices and enhanced energy conservation efforts. It advanced a pipeline of over 6.2 million kW in new energy projects approved for filing or acquisition, alongside 3.25 million kW under construction such as the Xinjiang Shache photovoltaic initiative and 2.3 million kW with finalized construction or acquisition agreements. These expansions align with Guangdong's "1310" energy strategy under carbon peak and neutrality goals, driving net profit growth to 903 million yuan, up 5.4% year-over-year, with new energy and investment segments contributing significantly.
