Chambière power station is a 102 MW other power station in Lorraine, France. It is operated by Usine d'électricité de Metz SAEML. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 76,437 homes (estimated). It ranks #97 of 2,188 France power plants by installed capacity. Its measured emissions of 146,610 t CO₂/yr (Climate TRACE) are equivalent to about 34,175 cars driven for a year. In context, the national grid averages 41 gCO₂/kWh (94.9% low-carbon) (2025).

This other plant generates electricity for the grid. It sits in a temperate oceanic climate (Köppen Cfb) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 49.1°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 21% above 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: 62/100 — this site sits in the mid 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.
Climate normals: WorldClim 2.1 (1970–2000 monthly normals, 10 arc-min, CC BY 4.0); zone: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid). Degree-days & heat-demand index computed by PowerAtlas — a modelled heat-demand proxy, not a measured site figure.
The #1 largest other power plant of 4 in France by capacity.
France has 4 other power plants in this dataset, together about 259 MW of capacity.
