What Henan Yuneng does

Coal-fired power generation company operating plants across Henan province, selling electricity to the provincial grid.

Sells nearly all its electricity to the provincial grid at tariffs set under national rules, which since 2021 let coal-fired generators float prices within a band to reflect fuel costs, so margins depend on how much of the coal cost can be passed on. Coal is bought on both contract and spot markets.
