Ningxia Jinyuyuan Chemical power station is a 100 MW coal power station in Ningxia Huizu Zizhiqu, China. It is operated by Ningxia Jinyuyuan Chemical Group Resin Works Co. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 125,142 homes (estimated). It ranks #1931 of 5,959 China power plants by installed capacity. Commissioned in 2006, it is around 20 years old — relatively modern. Its measured emissions of 231,960 t CO₂/yr (Climate TRACE) are equivalent to about 54,070 cars driven for a year. In context, coal supplies about 54.3% of China's electricity; the national grid averages 525 gCO₂/kWh (41.7% low-carbon) (2025).

This coal plant burns coal to raise high-pressure steam that spins a turbine-generator. It sits in a cold semi-arid steppe climate (Köppen BSk) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 37.9°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 47% 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: 78/100 — 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.

The #1197 largest coal power plant of 1434 in China by capacity.
China has 1434 coal power plants in this dataset, together about 1,249,175 MW of capacity.
