        Announcement on Power Generation for the First Quarter of 2007

Special Notice


The Company and all members of the board of directors warrant the truthfulness,
accuracy and completeness of the announcement, and jointly accept the
responsibility for any false representations or misleading statements contained
in, or material omissions from, this announcement.


This announcement is made pursuant to Rule 13.09(2) of the Rules Governing the
Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.


Datang International Power Generation Co., Ltd. (the 'Company') would like to
announce that based on the Company's preliminary statistics, as of 31 March
2007, total power generation of the Company and its subsidiaries (the 'Group')
during the first quarter of 2007 amounted to 27.531 billion kWh, an increase of
38.59% when compared to the corresponding period of the previous year. The
Group's total on-grid power generation was 25.943 billion kWh, an increase of
38.83% when compared to the corresponding period of the previous year.


The increase in the Group's power generation for the first quarter of 2007 as
compared with that of the previous year was mainly attributable to the following
reasons:


1. Increased capacity of operating generation units: Comparing the first quarter 
   of 2007 to the corresponding period of 2006, the Zhejiang Datang
   International Wushashan Power Generation Project ('Wushashan Power Project'), 
   which is controlled by the Company, and the projects of the Company's 
   subsidiaries including Guangdong Datang International Chaozhou Power 
   Generation Company Limited ('Chaozhou Power'); Fujian Datang International
   Ningde Power Generation Company Limited ('Ningde Power'); Yunnan Datang
   International Honghe Power Generation Company Limited ('Honghe Power'),
   and Yunnan Datang International Lixianjiang Hydropower Development Company
   Limited ('Lixianjiang Hydropower'), have all commenced operation, thereby
   substantially increasing the overall power generation capacity of the Group.

2. Increased demand in service areas: For the first quarter of 2007, the power 
   demand within the service areas of the Group - the Beijing-Tianjin- Tangshan 
   Power Grid, the Shanxi Power Grid, the Gansu Power Grid, the Yunnan Power 
   Grid, the Zhejiang Power Grid and the Guangdong Power Grid - continued to 
   maintain stable growth.

3. Improvement in operating reliability of generation units: For the first 
   quarter of 2007, operating generation units of the Company and its 
   subsidiaries achieved an equivalent availability factor of 96.83%, 
   representing an increase of 2.04 percentage points when compared to the 
   corresponding period of 2006.

4. The settlement of the power generation obstruction problem for generation
   units: The power generation obstruction problem at Hebei Datang International 
   Wangtan Power Generation Company Limited ('Wangtan Power'), a subsidiary of 
   the Company, was resolved in October 2006. Wangtan Power is now available for 
   full-capacity power generation. Accordingly, compared to the corresponding 
   period of the previous year, such power plant witnessed a substantial 
   increase in power generation.
