MUDHOL CEMENT is a 50 MW coal power plant in Karnataka, India. It is operated by Jk Cement ltd. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 62,571 homes (estimated). It ranks #776 of 1,908 India power plants by installed capacity. Its measured emissions of 326,540 t CO₂/yr (Climate TRACE) are equivalent to about 76,117 cars driven for a year. In context, coal supplies about 70.8% of India's electricity; the national grid averages 670 gCO₂/kWh (26.7% low-carbon) (2025).

This coal plant burns coal to raise high-pressure steam that spins a turbine-generator. It sits in a tropical savanna climate (Köppen Aw) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 16.2°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 #332 largest coal power plant of 395 in India by capacity.
India has 395 coal power plants in this dataset, together about 300,917 MW of capacity.
