DJ CGN Power Posted Higher Net Profit in First Half

By Ben Otto

CGN Power Co.'s first-half net profit rose slightly, as higher electricity sales offset an increase in operating and finance costs.

The Shenzhen-based power company posted net profit of 5.21 billion yuan ($753.7 million), up from CNY5.02 billion a year ago, it said in a stock-exchange filing Wednesday.

Operating revenue rose 19% to CNY31.51 billion, as two new nuclear-power plants commenced operations, the company said.

The group said the construction of five new nuclear-power plants is progressing as planned.
