Since the start of this year, the thermal power industry has seen a gradual improvement in its financial situation as the price of thermal coal has continued to decline. This has helped reduce some of the heavy losses it has suffered over the past few years, allowing it to generate some level of profit. However, the question remains: is the thermal power sector actually making as much money as some people believe? The answer is no. While there are signs of recovery, the industry's profitability is still at a relatively moderate and sustainable level.
To fully understand the true financial health of the thermal power industry, it’s important to look beyond just coal prices. Several other factors play a critical role in determining its performance. One key factor is the number of hours that thermal power plants operate. Due to slower growth in overall electricity demand, the utilization rate of thermal power equipment in the first half of 2024 was 2,412 hours—its lowest level since 2006, except for 2009. That’s an 86-hour decrease compared to the previous year. With fixed on-grid electricity prices, revenue largely depends on how much power is generated. As a result, the drop in operating hours has significantly impacted profitability, and this trend continues to worsen.
Another important consideration is the cost of desulfurization and denitrification upgrades. In recent years, the thermal power industry has invested heavily in these environmental improvements. However, government subsidies for electricity prices have not been sufficient to cover the high initial investment or ongoing maintenance costs. As a result, the cost of producing clean power remains significant.
Additionally, we must take into account the historical losses that the industry has accumulated over the years. Profit growth is relative, and during previous years, the sector experienced negative growth with very low base levels. Therefore, current profit growth figures may not accurately reflect the real financial condition of thermal power companies.
The issue of historical debt also remains a major challenge. The asset-liability ratio for the five major power generation groups reached 84.99% in 2012, far above the average of 63% for central enterprises. This high debt level continues to hinder long-term development and stability in the sector.
Moreover, thermal power plays a crucial role in supporting the growth of new energy sources. As a traditional power source, it helps stabilize the grid and allows power companies to invest more in renewable energy. This role will remain important both now and in the future. A reasonable profit margin for thermal power is essential for the broader restructuring of the power industry.
Regional differences also play a significant role. For example, the northeastern region faces overcapacity and underutilized thermal power plants, while Hunan struggles with insufficient thermal power due to increased hydropower and purchased electricity. In the first half of this year, thermal power plants in Hunan still incurred a total loss of about 720 million yuan. Furthermore, policies like “coal and power mutual protection†in some provinces add uncertainty to the industry’s profitability.
In conclusion, while the thermal power industry has seen some short-term gains, it’s essential to view its profits from a comprehensive and long-term perspective. The path to sustainable growth is still challenging, and many factors continue to influence its performance.
