中电(00002.HK):年底与政府检讨电费 疫情对本港主要基建计划无大影响
中电(00002.HK)公布今年上半年业绩,亏转盈赚60.1亿元,集团总监及中华电力副主席阮苏少湄在网上简布会表示,今年上半年出现新型肺炎疫情,政府禁堂食、企业员工在家工作及学校停课等,都对本港经济及售电量造成影响,商业售电量出现下跌,但在住宅用电量大升,加上天气较热增加用电量对冲下,上半年香港售电量按年仅减少1.2%。而下半年用电情况如何,需视乎天气及疫情是否受控等因素,期望对售电量整体影响不大。
她指,集团上半年为受疫情影响商户提供纾缓措施,包括先後两次向餐饮、零售及酒店等受影响行业提供电费延缴,并拨款逾2,000万元推出餐饮券支援弱势社群及中小企餐饮行业,未来会一路检视疫情变化及客户需要,调整纾缓措施及计划。
对於明年会否冻结电费,阮苏少湄称集团会於第四季与政府检讨电费水平,影响电费因素包括售电量、燃料价格等多方面,由於集团需按承诺增加天然气发电比例至50%,而天然气较煤贵,因此燃料成本会较高,但近月油价下跌,亦对天然气价格有纾缓,因此集团会因应不同因素造成的影响,於年底与政府检讨电费价格。
另外,她提到疫情对集团在港的主要基建计划没有大影响,位於龙鼓滩的一台新天然气发电机组已投运,另一台的前期准备工作亦已就绪。至於海上液化天然气项目现时正准备前期工作,预期会於今年开始建设。
