The Company has completed the acquisition of 13 wind power projects companies and 6 solar power projects companies with an aggregate operational installed capacity of approximately 1,400 MW and is focusing on the integration and assimilation of these wind and solar power assets with its existing projects. Currently, the proportion of clean and renewable energy power generation projects of the Company and its subsidiaries represents approximately 65% in terms of attributable installed capacity of the total attributable installed capacity of the Group's projects. 

This will allow the Group to add quality wind power and solar power assets to its portfolio on one hand, and, on the other hand, gain a solid foothold in the wind power and solar power generation sectors, which are in fast growth with strong government support in the PRC. Accordingly, the Board believes that the change of the name of the Company is in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

In the future, the Group will continue to adhere to the working principle of "Doing Things Right in One Go", giving full play as CGN's sole global platform for development and operation of non-nuclear clean and renewable power generation projects, and will continue to selectively acquire clean and renewable power generation projects with solid returns from CGN.

Meanwhile, CGN will fully support the Group with, among other things, strategic management, continuous supply chain, preferred option of non-nuclear clean energy assets and excellent talent.

This will enable the Group to further expand its business scale and market share, which will in turn improve the competitiveness, profitability and shareholders' return of the Group, and accordingly, strive to become one of the independent clean and renewable energy power producers with excellent profitability in Asia.
