What CGN New Energy does

Renewable energy subsidiary of China General Nuclear Power Group, developing and operating wind and solar power plants.

Sells wind and solar electricity to the grid, with tariffs set under government policy and part of the income historically paid as subsidy that can arrive late, so cash collection matters as much as output. Its parent CGN, the nuclear-power group, provides funding and project leads.

Is CGN New Energy expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 6.2× against a peer median of 12.1×, 2nd cheapest of 14 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 4% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +8%, so the hurdle is -4 pp: the price already allows for a slowdown.
How has CGN New Energy stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -22.6% against -13.1% for the median peer; over one year -25.6%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
