Coal-fired power generation company running plants across Anhui province, selling electricity to the provincial grid.
Coal-fired power generation company running plants across Anhui province, selling electricity to the provincial grid.
Sells all its electricity to the provincial grid at tariffs set under government rules, so profit depends on the gap between the allowed tariff and the cost of coal burned. Anhui's state-owned energy group controls it.
Moat: none (scale). Regulated tariffs and coal-cost pass-through leave little pricing power for provincial generators.
