NEA publishes 2016 Q1&2 full load hours for electric power plants
According to monthly statistics from the China Electricity Council, for the first half of 2016, the national average full-load hours for power plants with a generation capacity of 6 MW and above was 1797 hours, down 138 hours from the same period last year。
As of the end of June, total installed capacity of hydropower was 280 GW, with average productivity of 1658 full-load hours, up 146 hours from the same period last year。Compared with the same period last year, 19 provinces saw increased productivity of hydropower. In Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan, Zhejiang and Jilin hydropower productivity increased by more than 600 full-load hours, whilst hydropower productivity in Henan and Inner Mongolia fell by 638 hours and 512 hours。Out of the 13 provinces with more than 5 GW hydropower capacity, 9 provinces saw an increase of hydropower productivity, including Fujian, Hunan and Zhejiang (increase of more than 600 full-load hours), Gansu, Qinghai and Yunnan (increase of 260, 204 and 171 hours, respectively) on the same period last year。
As of the end of June, national installed capacity of thermal power plants of 6 MW and above stood at 1,020 GW. Average productivity of these thermal power plants was 1964 full-load hours, down 194 hours compared with the same period last year。Average productivity of such thermal power plants was 2,487 full-load hours in Shandong；In Jiangsu, Hebei and Hainan productivity exceeded 2,300 full-load hours；In Chongqing, Fujian, Guangxi, Hunan, Sichuan, Yunnan and Tibet productivity was less than 1,500 full-load hours, with just 648 hours in Yunnan and only 47 in Tibet。Compared with the same period last year, productivity of thermal power plants was down in 27 provinces. In Qinghai, Fujian and Hunan productivity was down by 897, 663 and 633 full-load hours, respectively。
As of the end of June, national grid-connected capacity of wind power stood at 140 GW, with average productivity of 917 full-load hours; down 85 hours over the same period last year。In Yunnan and Sichuan, average productivity of wind power reached 1,441 and 1,377 full-load hours。Out of the 13 provinces with installed capacity of wind power exceeding 3 GW, productivity axceede the national average in Yunnan, Hebei, Jiangsu, Liaoning, Shandong, Shanxi and Inner Mongolia；In Xinjiang, Gansu, Ningxia, and Jilin average productivity of wind power was 578, 590, 677 and 687 full-load hours, respectively, down 317, 109, 83 and 350 hours from the same period last year。
The average productivity in the first half of 2016 for power plants of 6 MW and above, as well as changes in productivity compared with last year are reported in Tables 1 and 2。
