FOUNDED: 2015 HEADQUARTERS: BEIJING, CHINA CEO: LIU MINGSHENG EMPLOYEES: 140,000 INSTALLED CAPACITY: 26.5GW

SPIC is one of China’ s major statebacked power groups and a sizeable hydropower player in its own right.

Its scale matters because hydro is not treated as a niche asset, but as part of a national strategy for power security, decarbonisation and grid support.

It was also the first Chinese state energy enterprise to achieve a clean energy capacity majority, with renewables now accounting for more than half of its total installed base.
