CGN Power expands nuclear pipeline as new units start up
New units locked in at fixed tariff CGN set a fixed on-grid price of 0.4153 yuan per kWh for four new units (Huizhou 1-2, Cangnan 1-2). This gives predictable revenue for the new reactors, reducing uncertainty about how much money they will make.
A guaranteed tariff directly supports future revenue and profit for the newly operating units.
Huizhou Unit 2 starts commercial operation Huizhou Unit 2 finished testing and is ready to run commercially, lifting CGN's operating fleet to 31 units and total capacity to about 35,000 megawatts. More running reactors mean more electricity sold and more cash coming in.
Adding a large operating unit immediately increases revenue-generating capacity.
State Council approves two more Huizhou units The State Council approved Huizhou Units 5 and 6, each 1,217 megawatts, using Hualong One 2.0 technology. Approval is a key step before construction, so it secures future growth in CGN's nuclear capacity.
Regulatory approval is a necessary milestone that moves new projects toward construction and future earnings.
First-half revenue fell but profit edged up First-half revenue dropped 19.6% to 31.48 billion yuan, yet net profit rose 2.6% to 6.11 billion yuan. The revenue decline is a real headwind, but profit growth and strong cash flow show the business remains solid.
The mixed results show both a revenue headwind and profit resilience, giving a balanced view of financial health.
