Huadian Electric Power Research Institute Co. Ltd. has 2 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The matters involve 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, indicating separate examination channels within the portfolio.
AKRAM, IMRAN is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending action. Each recorded examiner has an equivalent pending-action count, so prosecution management should preserve matter-specific analysis rather than rely on one centralized examiner approach.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
