Its predecessor and direct parent company, another Hong Kong incorporated company, China Power International Holding Limited (Chinese :中國電力國際有限公司; lit. : 'China Power International Co., Ltd.'), was founded in 1994. [3] It is ultimately controlled by the State Power Investment Corporation (previously China Power Investment Corporation), one of the five large national power generating groups that were administered by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council. CPID is engaged in developing, constructing, owning, managing and operating large power plants in China. [4]

The last listed subsidiary, was listed only in the Mainland China stock exchange.

In 2009 CPID acquired 63% equity interests in Wu Ling Power making hydroelectric power 18.73% of its total installed capacity, the highest of any of the Chinese IPPs. This protects the company from the costs of coal power in China, and makes its overall profile cleaner.
