The spot price of port thermal coal continues to rise.SelfcarebingoOn May 10, the closing price of power terminal coal (Q5500) in Huanghua Port closed at 870 yuan / ton, up 31 yuan / ton from the previous weekend. Last week (0506-0510), the average value of power coal (Q5500) in Huanghua Port was 860 yuan / ton, up 23 yuan / ton (+ 2.8%) from the previous week. Port coal stocks are basically stable last week, the daily average of total coal stocks in Qinhuangdao Port, Caofeidian Port, Jingtang Port and Guotou Port was 11.24 million tons, a decrease of 70,000 tons (- 0.59%) compared with the previous week. Among them, the daily average inventory of Qinhuangdao Port, Caofeidian Port, Jingtang Port and Guotou Port is 4.84 million tons (- 3.64%), 4.68 million tons (+ 3.21%) and 1.72 million tons (- 1.72%) respectively. The national coal inventory and available days of key coal power plants continue to rise downstream demand.

The available days of inventory are 25.7 days, an increase of 2.8 days over the previous week. The inflow of the three Gorges Reservoir decreased, and its water storage remained high compared with the same period last year. Last week, the average inflow of the three Gorges Reservoir Station reached 10971 cubic meters per second, down 6 per cent from the previous week and up 24 per cent from the same period last year. The average water storage capacity of the three Gorges Reservoir Station reached 25.1 billion cubic meters, down 1 per cent from the average of the previous week and up 6 per cent from the same period last year. It is suggested that we should pay attention to high-quality assets, leading efficiency, and the rapid pace of new energy transformation.SelfcarebingoCentral thermal power leader Huaneng International (600011, buy), Guodian Power (600795, unrated), Huadian International (600027, buy)Selfcarebingo?

The risk suggests that the growth space of new energy power generation may be lower than expected; the fundamental repair of thermal power may not be as expected; the rate of return of new energy operation may be lower; and the promotion of power market reform may not be as expected.
