Nanjing Liuhe District Yangba power station is a 156 MW gas power station in Jiangsu Sheng, China. It is operated by Yangzi Petrochemical-BASF Co Ltd. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 175,700 homes (estimated). It ranks #1644 of 5,959 China power plants by installed capacity. Its measured emissions of 113,404 t CO₂/yr (Climate TRACE) are equivalent to about 26,434 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).

This gas plant burns natural gas in a turbine — often in a combined-cycle setup — to generate electricity. It sits in a humid subtropical climate (Köppen Cfa) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 32.3°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 23% 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: 41/100 — 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.
A gas turbine here also runs ~0% below its ISO (15°C) rating at this annual mean (typical CCGT curve, estimate).

The #152 largest gas power plant of 315 in China by capacity.
China has 315 gas power plants in this dataset, together about 116,718 MW of capacity.
