The latest announcement is out from China Datang Corp. Renewable Power Co. Ltd. Class H ( (HK:1798) ).

China Datang Corp. Renewable Power reported that its consolidated power generation in March 2026 fell 20.87% year-on-year to 2,755,925 MWh, as a sharp 26.02% decline in wind output to 2,300,624 MWh outweighed a 21.98% rise in photovoltaic generation to 455,301 MWh. For the first quarter of 2026, total generation slipped 9.43% to 8,854,176 MWh, with wind down 12.87% to 7,660,518 MWh and solar up 21.28% to 1,193,657 MWh, highlighting the group’s growing solar contribution but indicating overall weaker resource conditions or utilization in its wind fleet that may pressure near-term revenue and capacity factors across key regions.

Regionally, most wind bases, including Inner Mongolia, Shanxi and northeastern provinces, recorded double-digit declines in March output, though Hainan, Chongqing and Guizhou delivered notable growth, partially offsetting broader weakness. The mixed regional performance and clear divergence between wind and solar trends underscore Datang Renewable’s increasing geographic and technology diversification, but also signal operational volatility that investors and other stakeholders will watch closely for its implications on earnings quality and future investment allocation.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:1798) stock is a Hold with a HK$2.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on China Datang Corp. Renewable Power Co. Ltd. Class H stock, see the HK:1798 Stock Forecast page.
