Xinjiang Urumqi Jinghuan power station is a 75 MW other power plant in Heilongjiang Sheng, China. It is operated by Beijing Environment Co Ltd. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 56k homes (estimated). It ranks #2877 of 6,685 China power plants by installed capacity. Its modelled annual emissions are 3,053 t CO₂/yr (Climate TRACE), equivalent to about 712 cars driven for a year. In context, the national grid averages 525 gCO₂/kWh (41.7% low-carbon) (2025).

Local climate & thermal context
This other plant generates electricity for the grid. It sits in a cold semi-arid steppe climate (Köppen BSk) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 44.0°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 99% 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: 93/100 — this site sits in the top third of the power plants we cover by heating degree-days.
Climate normals: WorldClim 2.1 (1970–2000 monthly normals, 10 arc-min, CC BY 4.0); zone: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid). Degree-days & heat-demand index computed by PowerAtlas — a modelled heat-demand proxy, not a measured site figure.
Site climate & environmental severity
This site sits in a benign, low-corrosion environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C1 — Very low), with thermal cycling the leading environmental stress.
Indicative estimate via the ISO 9223:2012 informative method (atmospheric corrosivity from temperature, time-of-wetness and airborne salinity), using WorldClim climate normals, the Köppen-Geiger class and coast distance. Indicative, not a measured corrosion rate.
How it compares & nearby plants
The #10 largest other power plant of 18 in China by capacity.
China has 18 other power plants in this dataset, together about 2,830 MW of capacity.
