OtherVeracruzMexicoCO₂ reported
Braskem Idesa power station is a 176 MW other power station in Veracruz, Mexico. It is operated by Braskem Idesa SAPI. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 131,850 homes (estimated). It ranks #116 of 335 Mexico power plants by installed capacity. Its measured emissions of 343,050 t CO₂/yr (Climate TRACE) are equivalent to about 79,965 cars driven for a year. In context, the national grid averages 474 gCO₂/kWh (25.9% low-carbon) (2025).

This other plant generates electricity for the grid. It sits in a tropical monsoon climate (Köppen Am) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 18.1°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.
Monthly mean temperature
Heating degree-days here run 100% below the median power plant in this dataset — a proxy for how much extra energy heated equipment must replace through its surfaces in winter.
Climate heat-demand index: 13/100 — this site sits in the bottom third of the power plants we cover by heating degree-days.
In colder climates, uninsulated hot equipment (boilers, turbines, valves, steam lines) loses proportionally more heat to ambient air — exactly the loss Inzonex modular insulation is designed to cut.

The #14 largest other power plant of 24 in Mexico by capacity.
Mexico has 24 other power plants in this dataset, together about 10,510 MW of capacity.
