Jinko Power swings to H1 loss as weak sun and low power prices bite

First-half loss on weak solar resources and falling power prices Jinko Power expects a first-half 2026 net loss of 177-246 million yuan, versus a 123 million yuan profit a year earlier. Weaker sunshine, lower settlement prices for new-energy power and worsening grid consumption limits cut generation and revenue. This is the core reason the stock is under pressure.
It is the company's own profit warning and the main fundamental driver of the stock.
Record summer power demand lifts the whole power sector China's national maximum electricity load hit a record 1.551 billion kilowatts in July, with Jiangsu and Zhejiang grids also at peaks. Rising demand from data services and high-tech manufacturing pulled power stocks, including Jinko Power, higher. More electricity use supports power producers' revenue.
It explains the sector-wide buying that lifted Jinko Power shares despite weak company results.
New power-system plan and anti-price-war rules support the sector Beijing's 15th Five-Year Plan for new power systems targets non-fossil generation at 50% of output by 2030. Separately, mandatory solar standards and price-compliance guidance aim to end cutthroat competition. These policies improve the long-term backdrop for solar operators like Jinko Power.
Policy support is a key force behind the sector's re-rating and Jinko Power's medium-term outlook.
Green computing pivot and energy storage growth offset weak solar Jinko Power's interim report showed revenue down 33.94% and a 187 million yuan net loss, but it is pivoting to green computing with data-center deals and a SenseTime partnership, and building a large energy-storage pipeline. These new businesses may become future profit drivers, though they are not yet proven.
It shows the company's strategic response to the solar downturn, a real counterweight to the loss.

CKP's Q3 profit peak meets El Niño risk and weak Q2

Q3 high season to lift profit to year's peak Lao hydropower plants are in their annual high-water season, and the BIC gas plant has no maintenance shutdown, so analysts expect Q3 2026 profit of 800–900 million baht — the year's best quarter. That supports the share price near term.
The seasonal profit peak is the main positive force behind CKP right now.
Weak Q2 profit and super El Niño risk Q2 2026 net profit fell 84% to 99 million baht on lower Nam Ngum 2 output and a currency loss, missing estimates. Analysts also warn a super El Niño could cut water flows from late 2026 into 2027, a medium-term drag.
This is the main counterweight — weak reported earnings and a looming drought risk.
Luang Prabang dam and solar projects advance CKP's 50%-owned Luang Prabang hydropower project is 77% built and due to start in 2030, funded by green bonds at low cost. Its 5 MW solar project with BEM began operating in September, adding renewable capacity and future revenue.
New project progress and low-cost funding underpin CKP's long-term growth story.
ESG recognition draws institutional money CKP was named to the ESG100 list for a fifth year and flagged by Kasikorn Securities as a beneficiary of Thailand's coming carbon pricing and CBAM rules. Good ESG scores can attract foreign and institutional investors, supporting demand for the stock.
ESG standing is a fresh, recurring reason investors may buy CKP.
