POWER GENERATION INCREASES 13.21% IN 2007

OVERSEAS REGULATORY ANNOUNCEMENT

This announcement is made pursuant to Rule 13.09 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

Huaneng Power International, Inc. (the “Company”) announces its power generation for 2007.

Based on the Company’s preliminary statistics, as of 31 December 2007, the Company’s total power generation based on a consolidated basis amounted to 173.688 billion kWh, an increase of 13.21% (excluding Sichuan Hydropower) over the same period last year. The power generation of Yuhuan Power Plant, Yingkou Power Plant, Luohuang Power Plant, Huaiyin Power Plant and Taicang Power Plant increased significantly as compared to the same period last year.

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

1.	The Company has further reinforced the sales effort, and adopted effective sales and marketing strategies and measures, thereby fully utilizing the competitive advantages of the Company’s power plants and bringing forward a relatively rapid growth of the Company’s power generation.

2.	The continued economic growth in the regions where the Company’s power plants are located provided an increase in power demand and room for increasing the power generation of the Company’s power plants.

3.	The stable operation of the newly operated generating units played a key role in increasing the Company’s power generation. In addition, the Company’s newly acquired Jinling Power Plant also contributed to the growth of the Company’s power generation.

The power generation of each of the Company’s power plants in 2007 was listed below (in billion kWh):

Dalian	10.227	Taicang	10.817
Fuzhou	8.136	Huaiyin	8.539
Nantong	8.345	Yushe	5.692
