GasJilin ShengChinaCO₂ reported

Dongfeng Zhongzhong Taide Gas power project is a 110 MW gas power station in Jilin Sheng, China. It is operated by Dongfeng Zhongzhong Taide Energy Saving Technology Co Ltd. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 123,891 homes (estimated). It ranks #1833 of 5,959 China power plants by installed capacity. Its measured emissions of 127,952 t CO₂/yr (Climate TRACE) are equivalent to about 29,826 cars driven for a year. In context, gas supplies about 3.2% of China's electricity; the national grid averages 525 gCO₂/kWh (41.7% low-carbon) (2025).

Local climate & thermal context

This gas plant burns natural gas in a turbine — often in a combined-cycle setup — to generate electricity. It sits in a monsoon hot-summer continental climate (Köppen Dwa) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 42.3°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.

Heating degree-days here run 102% 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: 94/100 — this site sits in the top 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.

A gas turbine here also runs ~0% below its ISO (15°C) rating at this annual mean (typical CCGT curve, estimate).
