Investment strategy

Public utilities: 1. The reform of electricity marketization has been promoted, and the electricity price can better reflect the supply and demand, cost and environmental value. The construction cost of new energy has been falling continuously. The new energy operators have “triple” certainty, and the growth rate of “quantity” – scenery installed capacity has high certainty; “Price” – the price of thermal power rises, the green premium is superimposed, and the profit space of green power is opened; “Performance” – this year’s low-cost fans and rush to install sea breeze ensure the performance of next year. 2. The policy promotes the optimal combination of coal and new energy. The policy of Changxie coal price + Changxie electricity price is expected to be implemented, the linkage mechanism is formed, the market-oriented trading of coal and electricity is expanded, and the turning point of thermal power profit appears. 3. The construction of new power system with new energy as the main source will deeply benefit new energy power producers and comprehensive electric energy services. It is recommended to actively transform new energy sources with abundant cash flow, leading thermal power, China Resources Power, Huaneng Power International Inc(600011) etc; Longyuan Power, a new energy operation leader China Three Gorges Renewables (Group) Co.Ltd(600905) with capital cost and resource advantages, recommends good cash flow, “nuclear power and new energy” two wheel drive China National Nuclear Power Co.Ltd(601985) and comprehensive electric energy service Suwen Electric Energy Technology Co.Ltd(300982) . Environmental protection industry: 1. High performance and low valuation; 2. The business model is improved, and the operation indicators continue to improve: 3. The stable growth operation attribute appears, and the yield and cash flow indicators continue to improve.

Risk tips

The environmental protection policy is not as expected; The growth rate of power consumption decreased; Electricity price reduction; The terminal price of natural gas has been reduced.
