Potential Beneficiaries: UBS anticipates that CGN POWER could benefit significantly from tariff revisions, as approximately 70% of its capacity is in Guangdong, and upstream suppliers like HARBIN ELECTRIC, YINGLIU, and DONGFANG ELEC may also gain from increased project visibility and margin recovery.
