Oil power plant in Hawaii, United States of America. Approximate location 21.3025, -158.1017.

OilHawaiiUnited States of America

Campbell Industrial Park is a 113 MW oil power station in Hawaii, United States of America. It is operated by Hawaiian Electric Co Inc. Based on reported annual generation of 99 GWh, it can supply roughly 28,342 homes. It ranks #1796 of 9,833 United States of America power plants by installed capacity. Commissioned in 2009, it is around 17 years old — relatively modern. In context, oil supplies about 0.7% of United States of America's electricity; the national grid averages 384 gCO₂/kWh (43.0% low-carbon) (2025).

~74,400 t CO₂/yr (estimated) — in everyday terms

This facility's annual emissions are roughly equivalent to:

17,343passenger cars driven for a year
9,703homes' yearly energy use
1,240,000tree seedlings grown 10 years to absorb it

Estimated, not measured: from reported annual generation × a typical oil emission factor (~750 g CO₂/kWh, IPCC AR5 / US EIA). Actual emissions depend on plant efficiency and running hours.Equivalencies via US EPA Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies.

Local climate & thermal context

This oil plant burns oil or diesel to drive turbines or reciprocating engines. It sits in a tropical savanna climate (Köppen As) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 21.3°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.

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.
