Weighted average return on equity (%) net of non-recurring gain or loss | 7.97 | 4.75 | An increase of 3.22 % |
In 2022, the Company achieved operating revenue of RMB 50.489 billion, with a year-on-year increase of 15.36%, mainly due to the year-on-year growth in on-grid energy and tariff. The total profit was RMB 9.433 billion, up 43.24% year on year; the net profit attributable to owners of the parent company was RMB 4.079 billion, a year-on-year increase of 66.11%; and the earnings per share was RMB 0.5213, a year-on-year increase of 61.45%.
The specific analysis of the main business revenue and operating cost is as follows:
In 2022, the main business revenue of the Company reached RMB 50.086 billion, an increase of RMB 4.036 billion over 2021. There are two main reasons: first, the on-grid energy of hydropower enterprises increased by 12.39% year-on-year, resulting in an increase in revenue; second, the rise in tariffs after the market-oriented reform in 2022 resulted in a year-on-year increase in revenue.
The main business revenue of thermal power was RMB 20.227 billion, an increase of 6.13% over 2021. This is mainly due to the rise in settlement tariffs and the struggle for energy supply guarantee subsidies affected by the reform of the power market this year.
The main business revenue of hydropower was RMB 23.767 billion, an increase of 19.89% over 2021. The main reasons were as follows: first, the tariff rose, which promoted the rise in the tariff from Sichuan to Jiangsu this year; second, the electric quantity increased. Lianghekou and Yangfanggou Hydropower Stations were put into operation throughout the year, and the on-grid energy of the hydropower sector increased by 12.39% compared with the previous year, resulting in a year-on-year increase in revenue.
The main business revenue of wind power was RMB 2.354 billion, an increase of 7.73% over 2021, mainly due to the following reasons: first, a number of wind power projects of the Company were connected to the grid and put into operation this year, including Beiqi Wind Power 400MW Area A and B Projects, Longmen Wind Power Phase III Project (100MW), Tianjin Ninghe Wind Power Phase II Project (9MW) and Hangjinqi Wind Power (150MW); second, the Hainan High Emission Project (48MW) acquired by the Company in 2021 was put into operation throughout the year, with a year-on-year increase of 2.35% in power generation this year; third, the settlement price of wind power increased by 5.03% year on year.
The main business revenue of solar power generation was RMB 1.264 billion, down by RMB 21 million from 2021. The main reason is the increase in proportion of market-oriented power transaction this year. Although the newly installed capacity of Guazhou Solar Power Project (50MW) and Pingtang Leyang Solar Power Project (52MW) this year further improved the solar power generation capacity, it has no impact on the increase of electric quantity due to the late operation time and the grid connection time close to the end of the year.
The main business revenue of waste-to-energy generation was RMB 132 million, down RMB 3 million from 2021, mainly due to the decline in power generation affected by maintenance operations, resulting in a year-on-year decrease in revenue.
Other main business revenue was RMB 2.339 billion, an increase of RMB 1.542 billion over 2021. The main reasons were as follows: first, the heat supply business revenue increased this year; second, the confirmed construction period income of the Batang Toru Hydropower Project in Indonesia increased.
In 2022, the main operating costs of the Company totaled RMB 34.125 billion, an increase of RMB 3.358 billion or 10.92% over 2021. Specifically:
The main operating cost of thermal power was RMB 20.628 billion, an increase of RMB 196 million or 0.96% over 2021. This is mainly due to the continued sharp rise in the prices of coal and imported coal in the domestic market in 2022 and a 17% increase in the unit price of standard coal of the Company.
The main operating cost of hydropower was RMB 9.134 billion, an increase of RMB 1.509 billion or 19.79% over 2021, mainly due to the year-on-year increase in depreciation expenses and reservoir fund costs after Yangfanggou and Lianghekou Hydropower Stations on Yalong River were put into operation.
The main operating cost of wind power was RMB 995 million, an increase of RMB 90 million or 9.91% over 2021, mainly due to the increase in depreciation costs caused by the increase in installed capacity of wind power this year.
The main operating cost of solar power generation was RMB 571 million, an increase of RMB 14 million or 2.60% over 2021, mainly due to the increase in main operating costs caused by new projects this year.
The main operating cost of waste-to-energy generation was RMB 76 million, basically the same as that of the previous year.
Other main operating costs were RMB 2.722 billion, an increase of RMB 1.548 billion over the previous year. On the one hand, it was affected by the rise in heating business volume and coal cost; on the other hand, the construction of the Batang Toru Hydropower Project in Indonesia was promoted, and the construction cost rose year-on-year.

Proposal V
SDIC Power Holdings Co., Ltd.
Proposal on 2023 Operation Plan
Dear shareholders and shareholder representatives,
The year 2023 marks the first year to fully implement the spirit of the 20th CPC National Congress, and also a key year for promoting the "14th Five-Year Plan". Under the complex and changeable external environment and the general development tone of "prioritizing stability while pursuing progress", SDIC Power Holdings Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as SDIC Power or the Company) is facing both opportunities and challenges.
In terms of power supply and demand, China's economic operation is expected to rebound overall in 2023, driving the growth rate of electricity consumption demand higher than that in 2022. According to the forecast of the China Electricity Council, the electricity consumption of the whole society is expected to increase by about 6% year on year. Driven by the rapid development of new energy, it is estimated that the installed capacity of power generation in China will increase by about 250 million kW throughout the year. The installed capacity of solar power and wind power will exceed that of hydropower for the first time in 2023. It is estimated that the overall power supply and demand balance of China will be tight in 2023.
In terms of the power market, the power market reform continues to advance in-depth: Inter-provincial and intra-provincial market operation, a medium and long-term joint operation of spot and ancillary service markets. Thermal power units can consume electricity by participating in inter-provincial and inter-regional transactions to give full play to the spatial value of electric energy or realize the value of system regulation capacity by providing auxiliary services such as frequency modulation. More electricity will be traded in the market for new energy projects. Combined with the vigorous promotion of national green power trading and green certificate trading, new energy power stations are expected to increase environmental value benefits.
In terms of the coal market, coal supply is gradually recovering to a high level with the continuous release of new production capacity and the successful resumption of coal mine work, and the long-term agreement supply of coal mines in producing areas is relatively sufficient. The prices of imported coal and domestic coal are expected to fall.
In the face of complex internal and external environments, the Company will conduct careful analysis, study and judgment, innovate development models, continuously improve value creation capabilities, build a solid bottom line for risk prevention and control, constantly promote high-quality development, and continuously create better returns on investment for shareholders.
The main business plans for 2023 are as follows:
I. Power Generation Plan
