CoalHebeiChinaCO₂ reported

Yufeng Industrial Group captive power station is a 135 MW coal power station in Hebei, China. It is operated by Yufeng Industry Group Co Ltd. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 168,942 homes (estimated). It ranks #1720 of 5,959 China power plants by installed capacity. Its measured emissions of 608,760 t CO₂/yr (Climate TRACE) are equivalent to about 141,902 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).

Local climate & thermal context

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 37.6°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.

Heating degree-days here run 6% 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: 52/100 — 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.
