Chairman's Statement Looking forward to 2012, the Chinese government will continue to focus on the macroeconomic policy on accelerating economic restructuring and improving the quality of development and the profitability. Datang Power will continue to remain focused on economic benefits as the core basis of the theme of scientific development, and will accelerate the pace of restructuring to ensure that the objectives in the second phase of its medium-term development plan could be achieved. To all shareholders, In 2011, domestic thermal coal prices remained high and surged dramatically. The upward adjustment to on-grid tariffs was far from enough to offset the higher prices. The unfavorable situation of an imbalance in thermal coal prices remained fundamentally unchanged. As a result of the implementation of a tight monetary policy in China, the cost of borrowing rose alongside increasing finance costs borne by power generation companies. In these challenging market conditions and the pressure exerted on operations, we pushed forward the full-scale implementation of our strategy, which was aimed at focusing on the power generation business whilst being complemented by synergistic diversifications, and launched the campaign on "Two Increases and Two Reductions, Pursuit of Profits and Conquest of Difficulties" in a profound manner. Despite a decline in benefits, we managed to make some hard-won achievements. As at 31 December 2011 (the "Year"), the total installed capacity of the Company and its subsidiaries was 38,484MW, while consolidated assets amounted to approximately RMB247,697 million, representing an increase of 16.34% as compared to the corresponding period of 2010 (the "Previous Year"). Consolidated operating revenue amounted to approximately RMB72,382 million, representing an increase of approximately 19.30% as compared to the Previous Year. Profit attributable to equity holders of the Company amounted to approximately RMB1,971 million, representing a decrease of approximately 23.29% as compared to the Previous Year. Earnings per share were approximately RMB0.15, representing a decrease of approximately RMB0.06 per share as compared to the Previous Year. The Company continued to maintain good production safety in 2011, achieving an overall equivalent availability factor of all operating units of 93.64% for the Company and its subsidiaries. Power generated by the Company and its subsidiaries amounted to 203.72 billion kWh, an increase of 14.14% as compared to the Previous Year. Coal consumption per unit production of power supply was approximately 319.69 g/kWh, a decrease of approximately 3.90 g/kWh as compared to the Previous Year. Looking forward to 2012, the Chinese government will continue to focus on the macroeconomic policy on accelerating economic restructuring and improving the quality of development and the profitability. Against this backdrop, Datang Power will still be exposed to challenges and opportunities. With respect to challenges, firstly, China's economic growth will slow down due to the impact of the structural adjustment of the macro economy. Secondly, the development of enterprises will be limited due to lack of funds. Thirdly, the State issued higher standards on energy conservation and emissions reduction. With respect to opportunities, firstly, pressure on the Company's operations is expected to be alleviated. Secondly, the advantage of diversified businesses will be revealed gradually. Thirdly, the efficiency of management will be further improved. In 2012, Datang Power will enter the final year of the second phase of its medium-term development plan, which primarily focuses on reinforcing Datang Power's dominant position in the power generation industry, the successive commencement of production of its coal chemical and metallurgy projects, further assuring the availability of the Company's own coal, the initial creation of a logistics industry value chain and the shaping of a diversified industrial pattern. Datang Power will continue to remain focused on economic benefits as the core basis of the theme of scientific development, and will accelerate the pace of restructuring to ensure that the objectives in the second phase of its medium-term development plan could be achieved. In the new year, Datang Power will continue to implement its core mechanisms - the comprehensive accountability management system and the performance appraisal system for all staff - and will take advantage of the opportunities arising from the "Year of Primary Level Organizational Setup" and the "Year of Management Enhancement" to carry out benchmarking, overcome weaknesses and strengthen internal management. We will manage our staff according to such systems, discipline our staff according to established procedures and handle our business according to proven processes. We will rely on scientific and accurate data and will offer rewards or impose penalties according to these mechanisms. We will complete our projects in progress to best possible standards and will generate returns for our shareholders and the community by delivering top-notch achievements, top-notch standards and top-notch development models. Last but not least, I wish to express my sincere gratitude to all shareholders, various organizations and friends for their trust and support.

What is the Company's view towards nationwide power supply and demand in 2012? The rate of economic and electricity growth will decline, though "pursuing progress while ensuring stability" - China's objective for 2012 - as well as effective macro-control initiatives will ensure that the economy will maintain a steady and relatively rapid pace of development. According to forecasts by the China Electricity Council, power consumption across the society is expected to grow at a rate of approximately 9.5%, and annual power consumption is estimated at 5.14 trillion kWh, possibly demonstrating "a rise in the rate after a fall". On the supply side, newly-added installed capacity is expected to be approximately 85,000MW, of which approximately 20,000MW is newly added by hydropower, and approximately 50,000MW is newly contributed by thermal power on a reduced scale. Overall nationwide power-generating installed capacity will reach approximately 1,140,000 MW by the end of 2012. Judging from the current situation, it is likely that in 2012, water flow for hydropower generation will dry up before the flood season arrives; the tension in the supply of thermal coal in certain regions and during certain periods will remain a prominent issue; and the external environment for supply will remain relatively challenging. Our overall analysis suggests that overall national power supply and demand is anticipated to remain tense in 2012 as it will be characterized by a prominent shortage of power in certain regions and during certain periods and seasons, with a maximum power shortfall of approximately 30,000MW to 40,000MW. Annual utilization hours of power generation facilities will be around 4,750 hours, while utilization hours of coal-fired power generation facilities will be around 5,300-5,400 hours. 2. What is the Company's estimate for coal contracts to be signed up in 2012? According to the Company's power generation plan for 2012, it is estimated that the Company will consume approximately 100 million tonnes of natural coal in 2012. Up to now, the Company has signed up contracts for 40.52 million tonnes of coal, and other contracts currently are under negotiation. The prices of coal under the contracts which already been signed up have risen by 5% against the 2011 level. 3. What progress did the Company make in its coal operations in 2011? In 2011, the Company made significant progress in the approval and construction of coal mines as well as in coal production. As for project approval, the Phase 2 project of the Shengli Coal Mine East Unit 2 in Xilinhaote was approved by the State in 2011, providing an additional approved capacity of 20 million tonnes of raw coal. With respect to project construction, construction of the Phase 2 project of Shengli Coal Mine East Unit 2 in Xilinhaote formally commenced in 2011. On the production side, the Shengli Coal Mine East Unit 2 and the Baoli Coal Mine, both of which the Company has controlling interests, produced 10.71 million tonnes and 1.31 million tonnes of raw coal, respectively, while Tashan Coal Mine and Yuzhou Coal Mine, both of which the Company owns holding interests, achieved an output of 23 million tonnes and 7.2 million tonnes of raw coal, respectively, in 2011. In 2011, the capacity contributed by the coal mines in which the Company owns controlling interests and holding interests provided a strong support to the Company's core power generation business. 4. What progress did the Company make in its coal-to-chemical projects in 2011 and what are the Company's work targets for 2012? The Company has made significant progress in the three super-large coal-to-chemical projects under construction in 2011. The progress made in 2011 and the work targets for 2012 are outlined below: Duolun Coal Polypropylene Project: In January 2011, gasification plants No. 2 and No. 3 and the MTP plant conducted successful test runs, having overcome the problems in core and technical aspects of the plants. From February to July 2011, comprehensive technological improvement, inspection and repair were carried out to solve the problems and defects exposed during the debugging process of the plants. At the end of June 2011, up-to-standard methanol (with a purity of 99.9%) was produced, having opened up the entire technological process by battery limit. In the beginning of September 2011, up-to- standard propylene was produced. At the end of September 2011, up-to-standard polypropylene was produced. From October to December 2011, a transformation project was carried at the MTP plant. On 16 March 2012, it underwent trial production. The Company's objectives for 2012 are to achieve a loading rate of 70% for its equipment within the year. Keqi Coal-based Natural Gas Project: On 26 August 2011, Gasifier No. 8 of Series 1 at the gasification plant was successfully launched after first ignition. On 28 November 2011, the air separation plant produced up-to-standard oxygen and nitrogen following a successful trial run. On 31 December 2011, the laying of the gas pipeline was completed. The work objective for 2012 are to launch the first production line into commercial operation. Fuxin Coal-based Natural Gas Project: The lifting of the first gasifier was completed in 2011. The Company's objective for 2012 is to complete the ignition of the gasifier and the trial run of the air separation plant. 5. What are the Company capital expenditure plans and structures for 2012? The capital expenditure on a consolidated basis to be incurred in 2012 is expected to be approximately RMB22,550 million, of which the non-power business segment will account for more than half of the total capital expenditure. Details of the structure are set out in the table below. Table showing the percentages of capital expenditure of the Company by business sector for 2012 Proportion of the Capital Expenditure of the Company Investment sector in 2012 Company's total (on a consolidated basis) 100% Coal-fired projects 20.78% Hydropower projects 20.94% Wind power projects 6.94% Coal projects 10.46% Coal-to-chemical projects 38.62% Other projects 2.26% 6. What are the main missions and objectives under the Company's "Twelfth Five-year Development Plan"? The general mission under the Company's "Twelfth Five-year Development Plan" is based on the strategy which is "focusing in the power generation business whilst deploying diversifications, and striving for profitability as a priority whilst seeking synergistic development". The Company will uphold an integrated-assets positioning: with the power generation business as its core development; with coal operations as its foundation; with coal-to-chemical and alumina projects as a new source of profits; and with railway, port, and shipping as a transportation backbone. The Company will enhance its coal-fired power; aggressively expand its hydropower; continuously develop wind power; strategically develop nuclear power; appropriately develop solar energy; focus on suitable coal operations; actively and steadily develop coal-to-chemical projects; accelerate the development of alumina projects; and secure a complementary development of railway, port and shipping operations. In the regions where the Company has resources and market advantages, the Company will optimize the deployment, carry out innovative development and dwell on its advantages to build a batch of industrial bases with core competitiveness, strengthening the capabilities of the regional operations and enhancing the Company's brand and profitability. During the period of the "Twelfth Five-year Development Plan", the Company will focus on designing the following six profit bases with distinct assets characteristics and synergistic efficiencies as well as strong development capacity and profitability.

Established a specialized internal control setup office. In 2011, the Company established a specialized office responsible for setting up, improving and implementing an internal control system, as well as compiling an internal control management manual in accordance with the requirements of the "Basic Standards for Corporate Internal Control" and related guidelines, and also in accordance with the five major components of internal control as a framework, which contains various particulars such as the definitions of internal control, internal control framework, principle of compilation, scope of applicability, division of responsibility, updates and maintenance mechanism. Moreover, a risk control manual containing a risk control matrix, flow chart and description of processes was compiled on the basis of the outcome of the smoothening of business processes to identify the critical control points with particular emphasis on risks in combination with the external legal requirements and management needs, and to follow communications with all business departments and various modifications. 2. Build-up of internal control system. From the perspectives of business management, job functions management and job positions management, the Company established various basic corporate management systems that comprise a financial management internal control system, a financial accounting system, an internal audit system, an administration management system, an information management system and a production management system.

Internal control supervision and inspection. The internal control setup office established by the company is responsible for organizing and conducting internal control assessment to assess high-risk areas and work units which fall within the scope of assessment. In 2011, the Company engaged Deloitte & Touche to assist in the compilation of an internal control assessment manual and the formulation of an internal control self-assessment proposal and plan, as well as to assist the internal control assessment department to undertake a comprehensive assessment of the effectiveness of the internal control of the Company's headquarters. The Company has set up a specialized internal audit office -- the Supervisory and Audit Department -- staffed by four full-time internal auditing officers specifically responsible for the monitoring and inspection of production and business activities as well as the enforcement of internal control to ensure the implementation of the internal control system and the normal conduct of production and business activities. 4.

The enterprises which fell into the scope of assessment were those engaged in the power generation (coal-fired power, hydropower and wind power), coal chemical, coal, transportation (shipping), metallurgy and other sectors. During the establishment of the internal control system, 46 first-level processes were smoothened, including the corporate governance structure, organizational structure, strategic management, major decisions and human resources, and an assessment of 841 control measures identified in 262 final-level processes was conducted, covering the major aspects of the Company's business management. Various methods were employed during the internal control assessment process, including individual interviews, survey questionnaires, seminars, walkthrough tests, site inspections, sampling and comparative analysis to collect evidence so as to determine whether or not the design and operation of internal control were effective. This was completed in the working papers on assessment tests for analyzing and identifying any internal control defects. During the internal control assessment process, the quality of the assessment test was assured by cross-checking the working papers on the assessment test and supplementary verification of the assessment test results. After a detailed and thorough internal control assessment, the Board of the Company believes that in 2011, the internal control system pertaining to the Company's operations and financial accounting was in compliance with the requirements of the relevant regulators in all material respects, and that it played a role in the control and prevention of the loss of control over major risks, serious management malpractices, errors in crucial processes and so forth.

Please refer to the relevant announcements of the Company dated 26 March 2012 on the websites of the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange regarding the "Self-assessment Report" and the "Audit Report". 5.

IFRSs comprise International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"); International Accounting Standards ("IAS"); and Interpretations. The adoption of these new and revised IFRSs did not result in significant changes to the Group's accounting policies and amounts reported for the current year and prior years except as stated below. Related party disclosures IAS 24 (Revised) "Related Party Disclosures" revises the definition of a related party and provides a partial exemption of disclosing related party transactions for government-related entities. A related party is a person or entity that is related to the Group. (A) A person or a close member of that person's family is related to the Group if that person: (i) has control or joint control over the Group; (ii) has significant influence over the Group; or (iii) is a member of the key management personnel of the Company or of a parent of the Company. (B) An entity is related to the Group (reporting entity) if any of the following conditions applies: (i) The entity and the Company are members of the same group (which means that each parent, subsidiary and fellow subsidiary is related to the others). (ii) One entity is an associate or joint venture of the other entity (or an associate or joint venture of a member of a group of which the other entity is a member). (iii) Both entities are joint ventures of the same third party. (iv) One entity is a joint venture of a third entity and the other entity is an associate of the third entity. (v) The entity is a post-employment benefit plan for the benefit of employees of either the Group or an entity related to the Group. If the Group is itself such a plan, the sponsoring employers are also related to the Group. (vi) The entity is controlled or jointly controlled by a person identified in (A). (vii) A person identified in (A)(i) has significant influence over the entity or is a member of the key management personnel of the entity (or of a parent of the entity). IAS 24 (Revised) exempts an entity from the disclosure requirements in relation to related party transactions and outstanding balances, including commitments, with -- a government that has control, joint control or significant influence over the entity; and -- another entity that is a related party because the same government has control, joint control or significant influence over both entities. The entity that applies the exemption is required to disclose the following: -- the name of the government and the nature of its relationship with the entity (i.e. control, joint control or significant influence); and -- the following information in sufficient detail to enable users of the entity's financial statements to understand the effect of related party transactions on its financial statements: i. the nature and amount of each individually significant transaction; and ii. for other transactions that are collectively, but not individually, significant, a qualitative or quantitative indication of their extent. The revision of the definition of a related party has no material impact on the financial statements of the Group. The partial disclosure exemption relating to transactions between the Group and government-related entities has been applied retrospectively. The Group discloses only individually or collectively significant transactions with government-related entities. The Group has not applied the new IFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective. The Group has already commenced an assessment of the impact of these new IFRSs but is not yet in a position to state whether these new IFRSs would have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position. 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs and the applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Hong Kong Stock Exchange and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of certain available-for-sale investments. At 31 December 2011, a significant portion of the funding requirements of the Group for capital expenditures was satisfied by short- term borrowings. Consequently, at 31 December 2011, the Group had net current liabilities of approximately RMB33.34 billion. The Group had significant undrawn borrowing facilities, subject to certain conditions, amounting to approximately RMB145.35 billion and may refinance and/or restructure certain short-term borrowings into long-term borrowings and will also consider alternative sources of financing, where applicable. The directors of the Company are of the opinion that the Group will be able to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due within the next twelve months and have prepared these financial statements on a going concern basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain key assumptions and estimates. It also requires the directors to exercise their judgements in the process of applying the accounting policies. The areas involving critical judgements and areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to these financial statements, are disclosed in note 4 to the financial statements. The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. (a) Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and all its subsidiaries made up to 31 December. Subsidiaries are entities over which the Group has control. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group has control. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date the control ceases. The gain or loss on the disposal of a subsidiary that results in a loss of control represents the difference between (i) the fair value of the consideration of the sale plus the fair value of any investment retained in that subsidiary and (ii) the Company's share of the net assets of that subsidiary plus any remaining goodwill relating to that subsidiary and any related accumulated foreign currency translation reserve. Intragroup transactions, balances and unrealised profits are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. Non-controlling interests represent the equity in subsidiaries not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Company. Non- controlling interests are presented in the consolidated statement of financial position and consolidated statement of changes in equity within equity. Non-controlling interests are presented in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as an allocation of profit or loss and total comprehensive income for the year between the non-controlling shareholders and owners of the Company. Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling shareholders even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. Changes in the Company's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions (i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners). The carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity and attributed to the owners of the Company. (b) Business combination under common control The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the combining entities as if they had been combined from the date when they first came under the control of the controlling party. The consolidated statements of comprehensive income and consolidated statements of cash flows include the results and cash flows of the combining entities from the earliest date presented or since the date when the combining entities first came under the common control, where this is a shorter period, regardless of the date of the common control combination. The consolidated statements of financial position have been prepared to present the assets and liabilities of the combining entities as if the Group structure as at 31 December 2011 had been in existence at the end of each reporting period. The net assets of the combining entities are combined using the existing book values from the controlling party's perspective. No amount is recognised in respect of goodwill or gain on bargain purchase at the time of common control combination, to the extent of the continuation of the controlling party's interest. There was no adjustment made to the net assets nor the net profit or loss of any combining entities in order to achieve consistency of the Group's accounting policies. (c) Business combination other than under common control The acquisition method is used to account for the acquisition of a subsidiary in a business combination. The cost of acquisition is measured at the acquisition-date fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued, liabilities incurred and contingent consideration. Acquisition-related costs are recognised as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are received. Identifiable assets and liabilities of the subsidiary in the acquisition are measured at their acquisition-date fair values. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the Company's share of the net fair value of the subsidiary's identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Any excess of the Company's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of acquisition is recognised in consolidated profit or loss as a gain on bargain purchase which is attributed to the Company. In a business combination achieved in stages, the previously held equity interest in the subsidiary is remeasured at its acquisition-date fair value and the resulting gain or loss is recognised in consolidated profit or loss. The fair value is added to the cost of acquisition to calculate the goodwill. If the changes in the value of the previously held equity interest in the subsidiary were recognised in other comprehensive income (for example, available-for-sale investments), the amount that was recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised on the same basis as would be required if the previously held equity interest were disposed of. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. The method of measuring impairment losses of goodwill is the same as that of other assets as stated in the accounting policy (ab) below. Impairment losses of goodwill are recognised in consolidated profit or loss and are not subsequently reversed. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the acquisition for the purpose of impairment testing. The non-controlling interests in the subsidiary are initially measured at the non-controlling shareholders' proportionate share of the net fair value of the subsidiary's identifiable assets and liabilities at the acquisition date. (d) Associates Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policies of an entity but is not control or joint control over those policies. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group has significant influence. Investments in associates are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements by the equity method and are initially recognised at cost. Identifiable assets and liabilities of the associate in an acquisition are measured at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's share of the net fair value of the associate's identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is tested for impairment together with the investment at the end of each reporting period when there is objective evidence that the investment is impaired. Any excess of the Group's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of acquisition is recognised in consolidated profit or loss. The Group's share of an associate's post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in consolidated profit or loss, and its share of the post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in the consolidated reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group's share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. If the associate subsequently reports profits, the Group resumes recognising its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognised. The gain or loss on the disposal of an associate that results in a loss of significant influence represents the difference between (i) the fair value of the consideration of the sale plus the fair value of any investment retained in that associate and (ii) the Group's share of the net assets of that associate plus any remaining goodwill relating to that associate and any related accumulated foreign currency translation reserve. Unrealised profits on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interests in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. (e) Joint venture A joint venture is a contractual arrangement whereby the Group and other parties undertake an economic activity that is subject to joint control. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over the economic activity when the strategic financial and operating decisions relating to the activity require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control (the "venturers"). A jointly controlled entity is a joint venture that involves the establishment of a separate entity in which each venturer has an interest. Investments in jointly controlled entities are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements by the equity method and are initially recognised at cost. Identifiable assets and liabilities of a jointly controlled entity in an acquisition are measured at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group's share of the net fair value of the jointly controlled entity's identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is tested for impairment together with the investment at the end of each reporting period when there is objective evidence that the investment is impaired. Any excess of the Group's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of acquisition is recognised in consolidated profit or loss. The Group's share of the jointly controlled entities' post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in consolidated profit or loss, and its share of the post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in the consolidated reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investments. When the Group's share of losses in the jointly controlled entities equals or exceeds its interest in the jointly controlled entities, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the jointly controlled entities. If the jointly controlled entities subsequently report profits, the Group resumes recognising its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognised. The gain or loss on the disposal of a jointly controlled entity that results in a loss of joint control represents the difference between (i) the fair value of the consideration of the sale plus the fair value of any investment retained in that jointly controlled entity and (ii) the Group's share of the net assets of that jointly controlled entity plus any remaining goodwill relating to that jointly controlled entity and any related accumulated foreign currency translation reserve. Unrealised profits on transactions between the Group and its jointly controlled entities are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interests in the jointly controlled entities. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of jointly controlled entities have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. (f) Foreign currency translation (i) Functional and presentation currency Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the "functional currency"). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Renminbi ("RMB"), which is the Company's functional and presentation currency, and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand ("RMB'000"), unless otherwise stated. (ii) Transactions and balances in each entity's financial statements Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency on initial recognition using the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rates at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from this translation policy are recognised in profit or loss. Non-monetary items that are measured at fair values in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rates at the dates when the fair values are determined. When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognised in other comprehensive income, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income. When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognised in profit or loss, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. (iii) Translation on consolidation The results and financial position of all the Group entities that have a functional currency different from the Company's presentation currency are translated into the Company's presentation currency as follows: -- Assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that statement of financial position; -- Income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the exchange rates on the transaction dates); and -- All resulting exchange differences are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve. On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign entities and of borrowings are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve. When a foreign operation is sold, such exchange differences are recognised in consolidated profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate. (g) Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment, other than construction in progress, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are recognised in profit or loss during the period in which they are incurred. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated at rates sufficient to write off their cost less their residual values over the estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. The principal useful lives are as follows: Land use rights 10 - 70 years Buildings and structures 8 - 45 years Electricity utility plants 4 - 35 years Transportation facilities 6 - 12 years Others 5 - 22 years The residual values, useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. Construction in progress represents buildings and structures under construction and plant and machinery pending installation, and is stated at cost less impairment losses. Depreciation begins when the relevant assets are available for use. The gain or loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant asset, and is recognised in profit or loss. (h) Investment properties Investment properties are land and/or buildings held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation. An investment property is measured initially at its cost including all direct costs attributable to the property. After initial recognition, the investment property is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The depreciation is calculated using the straight line method to allocate the cost to the residual value over its estimated useful life of 30 years. The gain or loss on disposal of an investment property is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the property, and is recognised in profit or loss. (i) Leases The Group as lessee (i) Operating leases Leases that do not substantially transfer to the Group all the risks and rewards of ownership of assets are accounted for as operating leases. Lease payments (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. (ii) Finance leases Leases that substantially transfer to the Group all the risks and rewards of ownership of assets are accounted for as finance leases. At the commencement of the lease term, a finance lease is capitalised at the lower of the fair value of the leased asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments, each determined at the inception of the lease. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the statement of financial position as finance lease payable. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance constant charge is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Assets under finance leases are depreciated the same as owned assets. A sale and leaseback transaction involves the sale of an asset and the leasing back of the same asset. The lease payment and the sale price are usually interdependent because they are negotiated as a package. If a sale and leaseback transaction results in a finance lease, any excess of sales proceeds over the carrying amount shall be deferred and amortised over the lease term. The Group as lessor (i) Operating leases Leases that do not substantially transfer to the lessees all the risks and rewards of ownership of assets are accounted for as operating leases. Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. (ii) Finance leases Leases that substantially transfer to the lessees all the risks and rewards of ownership of assets are accounted for as finance leases. Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recognised as receivables at the amount of the Group's net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the Group's net investment outstanding in respect of the leases. (j) Intangible assets other than goodwill Intangible assets, other than goodwill, are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Amortisation of intangible assets is calculated either at rates sufficient to write off their cost over the estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis or on a systematic and proper method to reflect the pattern in which the asset's future economic benefits are expected to be realised by the Group. Mining rights are amortised on the systematic and proper method while the principal useful lives of other intangible assets are as follows: Resource use rights 10 years Technology know-how 10 years or over the beneficial period upon commencement of commercial production Computer software 2 - 9 years Others 14 months (k) Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using weighted average method. Costs of inventories include direct material cost and transportation expenses incurred in bringing them to the working locations. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs in power generation and selling expenses. (I) Recognition and derecognition of financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to receive cash flows from the assets expire; the Group transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets; or the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets but has not retained control on the assets. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in profit or loss. Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss. (m) Investments Investments are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis where the purchase or sale of an investment is under a contract whose terms require delivery of the investment within the timeframe established by the market concerned, and are initially measured at fair value, plus directly attributable transaction costs except in the case of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Investments are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss or available-for-sale investments. (i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are either investments classified as held for trading or designated as at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. These investments are subsequently measured at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of these investments are recognised in profit or loss. (ii) Available-for-sale investments Available-for-sale investments are non-derivative financial assets not classified as loans and receivables or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Available-for-sale investments are subsequently measured at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of these investments are recognised in other comprehensive income, until the investments are disposed of or there is objective evidence that the investments are impaired, at which time the cumulative gains or losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income are recognised in profit or loss. Interest calculated using the effective interest method is recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in profit or loss for equity investments classified as available-for-sale investments are not subsequently reversed through profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in profit or loss for debt instruments classified as available-for-sale investments are subsequently reversed and recognised in profit or loss if an increase in the fair value of the instruments can be objectively related to an event occurring after the recognition of the impairment loss. (n) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less allowance for impairment. Loans and receivables primarily include short-term entrusted loans, other receivables, accounts and notes receivable and cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position. An allowance for impairment of loans and receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of loans and receivables. The amount of the allowance is the difference between the loans and receivables' carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition. The amount of the allowance is recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses are reversed in subsequent periods and recognised in profit or loss when an increase in the loans and receivables' recoverable amount can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, subject to the restriction that the carrying amount of the loans and receivables at the date the impairment is reversed shall not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised. (o) Cash and cash equivalents For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents represent cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term highly liquid investments which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. Bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group's cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents. (p) Financial liabilities and equity instruments Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument under IFRSs. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities. The accounting policies adopted for specific financial liabilities and equity instruments are set out below. (q) Borrowings Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. (r) Financial guarantee contract liabilities The Group issues financial guarantee contracts that transfer significant insurance risk. Financial guarantee contracts are those contracts that require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holders for losses they incur because specified debtors fail to make payments when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of debt instruments. At the end of each reporting period, liability adequacy tests are performed to ensure the adequacy of the contract liabilities. In performing these tests, current best estimates of future contractual cash flows and related administrative expenses are used. Any deficiency is immediately charged to the profit or loss by establishing a provision for losses arising from these tests. (s) Accounts payables and accrued liabilities Accounts payables and accrued liabilities are stated initially at their fair values and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost. (t) Equity instruments Equity instruments issued by the Company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. (u) Revenue recognition Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Revenue is shown net of value-added tax, returns, rebates and discounts. Revenue from sales of electricity and heat represents the amount of tariffs billed for electricity and heat generated and transmitted to the respective power companies and heat supply companies. Revenue associated with sales of coal and other goods is recognised when the title to the goods has been passed to customers, which is the date when the goods are either picked up at site or free on board, or delivered to the designated locations and accepted by the customers. Interest income is recognised on a time-proportion basis using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognised when the shareholders' rights to receive payment are established. (v) Employee benefits (i) Pension and other social obligations The Group contributes to defined contribution schemes including pension and/or other social benefits in accordance with the local conditions and practices in the municipalities and provinces in which it operates. Contributions to the schemes by the Group and employees are calculated as a percentage of employees' basic salaries. The scheme cost charged to profit or loss represents contributions payable by the Group to the funds. (ii) Staff housing benefits The Company provides housing to its employees at preferential prices. The difference between the selling price and the cost of housing is considered a housing benefit to the employees and is recorded as deferred housing benefits which are amortised on a straight-line basis over the estimated remaining average service lives of the relevant employees and included in salaries and staff welfare expenses. During 2005 to 2007, the Company and some of its subsidiaries also started to provide monetary housing subsidies to their employees. These subsidies are considered housing benefits and are recorded as deferred housing benefits which are amortised on a straight-line basis over the estimated remaining average service lives of the relevant employees and included in salaries and staff welfare expenses. In addition, the Group also contributes to the state-prescribed housing fund. Such costs are charged to the profit or loss as incurred. (iii) Termination benefits Termination benefits are recognised when, and only when, the Group demonstrably commits itself to terminate employment or to provide benefits as a result of voluntary redundancy by having a detailed formal plan which is without realistic possibility of withdrawal. (w) Borrowing costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation. To the extent that funds are borrowed generally and used for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation is determined by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditures on that asset. The capitalisation rate is the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings of the Group that are outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset. All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. (x) Government grants A government grant is recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions attaching to it and that the grant will be received. Government grants relating to income are deferred and recognised in profit or loss over the period to match them with the costs they are intended to compensate. Government grants that become receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group with no future related costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they become receivable. (y) Taxation Income tax represents the sum of the current tax and deferred tax. The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit recognised in profit or loss because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses or unused tax credits can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint controlled entities, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. (z) Value-added tax ("VAT") Revenue from sales of electricity and heat and revenue associated with sales of coal and other goods are subjected to VAT in the PRC. VAT payables are determined by applying 17% or 13% or 6% on the taxable revenue after offsetting deductible input VAT of the period. (aa) Related parties A related party is a person or entity that is related to the Group. (A) A person or a close member of that person's family is related to the Group if that person: (i) has control or joint control over the Group; (ii) has significant influence over the Group; or (iii) is a member of the key management personnel of the Company or of a parent of the Company. (B) An entity is related to the Group (reporting entity) if any of the following conditions applies: (i) The entity and the Company are members of the same group (which means that each parent, subsidiary and fellow subsidiary is related to the others). (ii) One entity is an associate or joint venture of the other entity (or an associate or joint venture of a member of a group of which the other entity is a member). (iii) Both entities are joint ventures of the same third party. (iv) One entity is a joint venture of a third entity and the other entity is an associate of the third entity. (v) The entity is a post-employment benefit plan for the benefit of employees of either the Group or an entity related to the Group. If the Group is itself such a plan, the sponsoring employers are also related to the Group. (vi) The entity is controlled or jointly controlled by a person identified in (A). (vii) A person identified in (A)(i) has significant influence over the entity or is a member of the key management personnel of the entity (or of a parent of the entity). Government-related entities, other than entities under China Datang which is a state-owned enterprise and its subsidiaries, directly or indirectly controlled by the Central People's Government of the PRC ("Government-Related Entities") are also regarded as related parties of the Group. For the purpose of the related party transactions disclosure, the Group has established procedures for determination, to the extent possible, of the identification of the ownership structure of its customers and suppliers as to whether they are Government-Related Entities to ensure the adequacy of disclosure for all material related party transactions given that many Government-Related Entities have multi-layered corporate structures and the ownership structures change over time as a result of transfers and privatisation programs. (ab) Impairment of assets At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets except goodwill, deferred tax assets, investments, inventories and receivables to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of any impairment loss. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of amortisation or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase. (ac) Provisions and contingent liabilities Provisions are recognised for liabilities of uncertain timing or amount when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the time value of money is material, provisions are stated at the present value of the expenditures expected to settle the obligation. Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow is remote. (ad) Events after the reporting period Events after the reporting period that provide additional information about the Group's position at the end of the reporting period or those that indicate the going concern assumption is not appropriate are adjusting events and are reflected in the financial statements. Events after the reporting period that are not adjusting events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements when material. 4. CRITICAL JUDGEMENT AND KEY ESTIMATES Critical judgement in applying accounting policies In the process of applying the accounting policies, the directors have made the following judgement that has the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements (apart from those involving estimations, which are dealt with below). Going concern basis These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, the validity of which depends upon the availability of funding from various sources to enable the Group to operate as a going concern and meet its liabilities as they fall due. Details are explained in note 3 to financial statements. Key sources of estimation uncertainty The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are discussed below. (a) Depreciation of property, plant and equipment The Group determines the estimated useful lives, residual values and related depreciation charges for its property, plant and equipment. This estimate is based on the projected wear and tear incurred during power generation. This could change significantly as a result of technical renovations on power generators. The Group will revise the depreciation charge where useful lives and residual values are different to those previously estimated, or it will write-off or write-down technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold. (b) Impairment of property, plant and equipment The Group tests annually whether property, plant and equipment have suffered any impairment in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 3 (ab) to the financial statements. An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment exceeds their recoverable amount which has been determined based on value in use calculations. These calculations require the use of estimates such as electricity and heat tariffs and fuel prices. Changes of assumptions in electricity and heat tariffs and fuel prices could affect the result of property, plant and equipment impairment assessment. (c) Approval of construction in new power plants The Group has not received relevant government approvals from the National Development and Reform Commission (the "NDRC") for its certain power plant construction projects. The ultimate approval from the NDRC on these projects is a critical estimate and judgement of the directors. Such an estimate and judgement are based on initial approval documents received as well as their understanding of the projects. Based on historical experience, the directors believe that the Group will receive final approval from the NDRC on the related power plant projects. Deviation from this estimate and judgement could result in material adjustments to the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment. (d) Impairment of goodwill Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated. The value in use calculation requires the Group to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value, of which details are provided in note 18 to financial statements. (e) Deferred tax assets The estimates of deferred tax assets require estimates over future taxable profit and corresponding applicable income tax rates of respective years. The change in future income tax rates and timing would affect income tax expense or credit, as well as deferred tax balance. The realisation of deferred tax assets also depends on the realisation of sufficient future taxable profits of the Group. Deviation of future profitability from the estimate could result in material adjustments to the carrying amount of deferred tax assets. (f) Income taxes The Group is subject to income taxes in various regions. Significant estimates are required in determining the provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business, overall assets transfers and corporate restructuring. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made. 5. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: foreign currency risk, price risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. The Group's overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance. (a) Foreign currency risk Foreign currency risk of the Group primarily arises from certain loans denominated in Hong Kong dollar ("HKD"), United States dollar ("USD") and Euro dollar ("EUR"). The Group currently does not have a foreign currency hedging policy in respect of foreign currency debts. The Group maintains a close look at the international foreign currency market on the changing exchange rates and takes these into consideration when raising foreign currency loans and investing in foreign currency deposits. At 31 December 2011, if RMB had weakened by 5 per cent (2010: 5 per cent) against HKD, USD or EUR with all other variables held constant, consolidated profit after tax for the year would have been RMB69,982 thousand (2010: RMB67,134 thousand) lower, arising as a result of the foreign exchange loss on HKD, USD and EUR loans and deposits. If RMB had strengthened by 5 per cent (2010: 5 per cent) against HKD, USD or EUR with all other variables held constant, consolidated profit after tax for the year would have been RMB69,982 thousand (2010: RMB67,134 thousand) higher, arising as a result of the foreign exchange gain on HKD, USD and EUR loans and deposits. (b) Price risk The Group's certain available-for-sale investments amounted to RMB67,531 thousand (2010: RMB91,043 thousand) as disclosed in note 21 to the financial statements are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Therefore, the Group is exposed to equity security price risk. Since the amounts of such investments are insignificant to the Group, the directors of the Company are of opinion that the Group is not exposed to any significant equity security price risk as at 31 December 2011 and 2010. The Group closely monitors the pricing trends in the open market in determining their long-term strategic stakeholding decisions. (c) Credit risk The carrying amount of the bank deposits, accounts receivables, other receivables and short-term entrusted loans included in the statement of financial position represents the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to the Group's financial assets. The Group maintains most of its bank deposits in several major government-related financial institutions in the PRC and a non-bank financial institution which is a related party of the Group. With strong State support provided to those government-related financial institutions and the holding of directorship in the board of the related party non-bank financial institution, the directors are of the opinion that there is no significant credit risk on such assets being exposed. With regard to accounts receivables arising from power sales, most of the power plants of the Group sell electricity to their sole customers, the power grid companies of their respective provinces or regions where the power plants operate. These power plants of the Group communicate with their individual grid companies periodically and believe that adequate allowance for doubtful accounts has been made in the financial statements. For accounts receivables arising from coal and chemical product sales, the Group assesses the credit quality of the customers, taking into account their financial positions, past experience and other factors. It will also collect advanced payments from their customers. The Group performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers and believes that adequate allowance for doubtful debts has been made in the financial statements. The Group does not hold any collateral as security for all the receivables. At 31 December 2011, accounts and notes receivables due from the top five debtors amounted to RMB5,010,677 thousand (2010: RMB4,604,734 thousand), representing 49.08% (2010: 56.44%) of the total accounts and notes receivables. Except for accounts and notes receivables, the Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk. Other receivables primarily include amounts due from related parties while all short-term entrusted loans are lent to a jointly controlled entity. The Group assesses the credibility of the related parties by reviewing their operating results and gearing ratios periodically. (d) Liquidity risk Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and cash equivalents, the availability of funding from an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, the Group aims to maintain flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit facilities. The Group monitors the cash flow rolling forecasts of the Group's undrawn borrowing facility and cash and cash equivalents available as at each month end in meeting its liabilities. The maturity analysis of the Group's financial liabilities is as follows: _______________________________________________________________________________ Between Between Less than 1 and 2 and 1 year 2 years 5 years Over 5 years RMB'000 RMB'000 RMB'000 RMB'000 _______________________________________________________________________________ At 31 December 2011 Long-term loans 15,202,156 12,873,116 35,211,628 69,569,612 Long-term bonds - - 3,000,000 6,000,000 Finance lease payables 695,443 914,261 2,844,305 3,513,856 Other non-current liabilities, excluding finance lease payables 82,774 9,000 - - Accounts payables and accrued liabilities 23,940,013 - - - Short-term loans 21,523,709 - - - Interest payables for loans 9,212,198 7,160,909 16,887,477 45,611,358 Interest payables for bonds 439,500 439,500 1,045,500 1,237,500 _______________________________________________________________________________ At 31 December 2010 Long-term loans 14,470,442 19,198,585 31,355,750 59,031,042 Long-term bonds - - 3,000,000 3.000,000 Finance lease payables 536,556 544,434 2,102,055 2,535,871 Other non-current liabilities, excluding finance lease payables 76,468 24,987 9,000 - Accounts payables and accrued liabilities 18,930,066 - - - Short-term loans 19,374,828 - - - Interest payables for loans 6,772,063 5,174,062 14,162,498 16,722,868 Interest payables for bonds 282,000 282,000 555,000 750,000 _______________________________________________________________________________ (e) Interest rate risk As the Group has no significant interest-bearing assets except for bank deposits, the Group's operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. Most of the bank deposits are maintained in the savings and fixed deposits accounts in the PRC. The interest rates are regulated by the People's Bank of China while the Group closely monitors the fluctuation on such rates periodically. As the average interest rates applied to the deposits are relatively low, the directors are of the opinion that the Group is not exposed to any significant interest rate risk for these assets held as at 31 December 2011 and 2010. The Group's exposure to interest rate risk arises from its loans. Certain loans bear interests at variable rates varied with the then prevailing market condition, thus exposing the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. The Group analyses interest rate exposures on a dynamic basis. Various scenarios are simulated taking into consideration refinancing, renewal of existing positions and alternative financing. At 31 December 2011, if interest rates on RMB, HKD and USD denominated loans had been 50 basis points (2010: 50 basis points) lower respectively with all other variables held constant, consolidated profit after tax for the year would have been RMB526,324 thousand (2010: RMB503,604 thousand), RMB2,110 thousand (2010: RMB2,311 thousand) and RMB5,887 thousand (2010: RMB4,275 thousand) higher, respectively, arising as a result of a decrease in interest expense on the loans. If interest rates on RMB, HKD and USD denominated loans had been 50 basis points (2010: 50 basis points) higher respectively with all other variables held constant, consolidated profit after tax for the year would have been RMB526,324 thousand (2010: RMB503,604 thousand), RMB2,110 thousand (2010: RMB2,311 thousand) and RMB5,887 thousand (2010: RMB4,275 thousand) lower, respectively, arising as a result of an increase in interest expense on the loans.

SEGMENT INFORMATION Executive directors and certain senior management (including chief accountant) of the Company (collectively referred to as the "Senior Management") perform the function as chief operating decision makers. The Senior Management reviews the internal reporting of the Group in order to assess performance and allocate resources. Senior Management has determined the operating segments based on these reports. Senior Management considers the business from a product perspective. Senior Management primarily assesses the performance of power generation, coal and chemical separately. Other operating activities primarily include sales of properties and cement products and sales of coal ash, etc., and are included in "other segments". Senior Management assesses the performance of the operating segments based on a measure of profit before tax prepared under China Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises ("PRC GAAP"). The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in note 3 to the financial statements. Segment profits or losses do not include dividend income from available-for-sale investments and gain on disposals of available-for-sale investments. Segment assets exclude deferred tax assets and available-for-sale investments. Segment liabilities exclude the current tax liabilities and deferred tax liabilities. Sales between operating segments are marked to market or contracted close to market price and have been eliminated at consolidation level. Unless otherwise noted below, all such financial information in the segment tables below is prepared under PRC GAAP.

DEFERRED HOUSING BENEFITS Pursuant to the "Proposal on Further Reform of Housing Policy in Urban Areas" of the State and the implementation schemes for staff quarters issued by the relevant provincial and municipal governments, the Company implemented a scheme for selling staff quarters in 1999. Under the scheme, the Company provides housing benefits to its staff to buy staff quarters from the Company at preferential prices. The offer price is determined based on their length of services and positions pursuant to the prevailing local regulations. The deferred housing benefits represent the difference between the net book amount of the staff quarters sold and the proceeds collected from the employees, and are amortised over the remaining average service life of the relevant employees. During 2005 to 2007, the Company and some of its subsidiaries carried out another housing benefit scheme - "Monetary Housing Benefit Scheme" upon the approval from Housing Reform Office of the local government. Under the Monetary Housing Benefit Scheme, the Company and some of its subsidiaries provided monetary housing subsidies to those employees whose houses did not meet the standard they should have enjoyed based on their length of services and their positions and rankings. There is no such subsidy payment in year 2011 (2010: nil). The benefits were amortised over the remaining average service life of the relevant employees. ______________________________________________________________________ RMB'000 ______________________________________________________________________ Cost At 1 January 2010, 31 December 2010, 1 January 2011 and 31 December 2011 662,532 ______________________________________________________________________ Accumulated amortisation At 1 January 2010 499,148 Charge for the year 30,854 ______________________________________________________________________ At 31 December 2010 and 1 January 2011 530,002 Charge for the year 29,691 ______________________________________________________________________ At 31 December 2011 559,693 ______________________________________________________________________ Carrying amount At 31 December 2011 102,839 ______________________________________________________________________ At 31 December 2010 132,530 ______________________________________________________________________ 23.

(ii) In March 2010, the Company issued 530,000,000 A shares to specific investors by way of non-public offering at a subscription price of RMB6.23 per share for a total cash consideration of RMB3,301,900 thousand. The premium on the issue of shares, amounting to RMB2,718,372 thousand, net of share issue expenses, was credited to the Company's capital reserve account. (iii) At 31 December 2010, 530,000,000 A shares were subject to lock-up periods and were not freely tradable. (iv) In May 2011, the Company issued 1,000,000,000 A shares to specific investors by way of non-public offering at a subscription price of RMB6.74 per share for a total cash consideration of RMB6,740,000 thousand. The premium on the issue of shares, amounting to RMB5,670,950 thousand, net of share issue expenses, was credited to the Company's capital reserve account. (v) At 31 December 2011, 1,000,000,000 A shares were subject to lock-up periods and were not freely tradable. The Group's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group's ability to continue as a going concern and to maximise the returns to the shareholders through the optimisation of the capital structure. The Group sets the amount of capital in proportion to risk. The Group manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in the light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the payment of dividends, issue new shares, raise new debts or sell assets to reduce debts. The Group monitors capital on the basis of the assets-to-liabilities ratio. This ratio is calculated as total liabilities divided by total assets. The assets-to-liabilities ratio of the Group as at 31 December 2011 was 79.52% (2010: 81.95%). The decrease in the assets-to-liabilities ratio during 2011 was primarily due to the increase of accounts and notes receivables accompanied by the growth in operating revenue and the increase in cash and cash equivalents resulted from issue of new shares. Taking into consideration of the expected operating cash flows of the Group and the available banking facilities and their experience in refinancing short-term borrowings, the directors believe the Group can meet their current obligations when they fall due. 29.

The capital reserve is non-distributable. (ii) Statutory surplus reserve In accordance with the relevant laws and regulations of the PRC and the articles of association of the Company, it is required to appropriate 10% of its net profit under PRC GAAP, after offsetting any prior years' losses, to the statutory surplus reserve. When the balance of such a reserve reaches 50% of the Company's share capital, any further appropriation is optional. The statutory surplus reserve can be used to offset prior years' losses, if any, and may be converted into share capital by issuing new shares to shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholding or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining balance of the reserve after such an issue is not less than 25% of share capital. The statutory surplus reserve is non-distributable. (iii) Discretionary surplus reserve Pursuant to the articles of association of the Company, the appropriation of profit to the discretionary surplus reserve and its utilisation are made in accordance with the recommendation of the Board of Directors and is subject to shareholders' approval at their general meeting. The discretionary surplus reserve can be used to offset prior years' losses, if any, and may be converted into share capital by issuing new shares to shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholding or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them. The discretionary surplus reserve is distributable. (iv) Restricted reserve Pursuant to relevant regulations and guidance issued by the MOF, certain deferred housing benefits are charged to equity directly when incurred under PRC GAAP. In order to reflect such undistributable retained earnings in these financial statements prepared under IFRS, a restricted reserve is set up to reduce the balance of retained earnings with an amount equals to the residual balance of deferred housing benefits, net of tax. Pursuant to relevant PRC regulations, coal mining companies are required to set aside an amount to a fund for future development and work safety which they transferred certain amounts from retained earnings to restricted reserve. The fund can then be used for future development and work safety of the coal mining operations, and is not available for distribution to shareholders.

Major differences between IFRS and PRC GAAP ("GAAP Differences"), which affect the net assets and net profit of the Group, are summarised as follows: _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Net assets Note 2011 2010 RMB'000 RMB'000 _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Net assets attributable to owners of the Company under IFRS 38,940,692 30,850,071 Impact of IFRS adjustments: Difference in the commencement of depreciation of property, plant and equipment (a) 106,466 106,466 Difference in accounting treatment on monetary housing benefits (b) (102,839) (132,530) Difference in accounting treatment on mining funds (c) (175,734) (82,095) Applicable deferred tax impact of the above GAAP Differences 715 (3,641) Non-controlling interests' impact of the above GAAP Differences after tax 18,564 (1,015) _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Net assets attributable to owners of the Company under PRC GAAP 38,787,864 30,737,256 _____________________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Net profits Note 2011 2010 RMB'000 RMB'000 _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Profit for the year attributable to owners of the Company under IFRS 1,971,200 2,569,734 Impact of IFRS adjustments: Difference in accounting treatment on monetary housing benefits (b) 29,691 30,854 Difference in accounting treatment on mining funds (c) (86,838) (107,273) Applicable deferred tax impact of the above GAAP Differences 4,357 (12,804) Non-controlling interests' impact of the above GAAP Differences after tax (8,299) (6,827) _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Net profit for the year attributable to owners of the Company under PRC GAAP 1,910,111 2,473,684 _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Note: (a) Difference in the commencement of depreciation of property, plant and equipment This represents the depreciation difference arose from the different timing of the start of depreciation charge in previous years. (b) Difference in accounting treatment on monetary housing benefits Under PRC GAAP, the monetary housing benefits provided to employees who started work before 31 December 1998 were directly deducted from the retained earnings and statutory public welfare fund after approval by the general meeting of the Company and its subsidiaries. Under IFRS, these benefits are recorded as deferred assets and amortised on a straight-line basis over the estimated remaining average service lives of relevant employees. (c) Difference in accounting treatment on mining funds Under PRC GAAP, accrual of future development and work safety expenses are included in respective product cost or current period profit or loss and recorded in a specific reserve accordingly. When such future development and work safety expenses are applied and related to revenue expenditures, specific reserve is directly offset when expenses incurred. When capital expenditures are incurred, they are included in construction in progress and transferred to fixed assets when the related assets reach the expected use condition. They are then offset against specific reserve based on the amount included in fixed assets while corresponding amount is recognised in accumulated depreciation. Such fixed assets are not depreciated in subsequent periods. Under IFRS, coal mining companies are required to set aside an amount to a fund for future development and work safety through transferring from retained earnings to restricted reserve. When qualifying revenue expenditures are incurred, such expenses are recorded in the profit or loss as incurred. When capital expenditures are incurred, an amount is transferred to property, plant and equipment and is depreciated in accordance with the depreciation policy of the Group. Internal equity items transfers take place based on the actual application amount of future development and work safety expenses whereas restricted reserve is offset against retained earnings to the extent of zero.
