Fundermax power station is a 10 MW biomass power plant in Carinthia, Austria. It is operated by FunderMax GmbH. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 13,765 homes (estimated). It ranks #102 of 118 Austria power plants by installed capacity. In context, biomass supplies about 6.4% of Austria's electricity; the national grid averages 117 gCO₂/kWh (83.6% low-carbon) (2025).

This biomass plant burns organic material (wood, residues) to raise steam for a turbine. It sits in a warm-summer humid continental climate (Köppen Dfb) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 46.7°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 58% 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: 83/100 — 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.
