Revenue (× MLF)

Estimated $ per interval — energy (RRP) and FCAS (regional FCAS prices), both × MLF.

Methodology & assumptions

  • Dispatch & availability — AEMO Next Day Dispatch UNIT_SOLUTION (5‑minute intervals). Intervention intervals excluded.
  • Regional price — dispatch_price RRP matched by settlement time and NEM region (from generator registry).
  • Energy revenue (× MLF) — cleared MW × (5/60 h) × RRP × MLF.
  • FCAS revenue & volume — cleared FCAS MW from DISPATCHLOAD (raise/lower 6s, 60s, 5min, reg) × (5/60 h) × regional FCAS price × MLF. Volume is total FCAS enablement MWh across services.
  • Curtailment — estimated economic curtailment when availability exceeds dispatch target: max(0, availability − cleared) × (5/60) MWh.
  • Not settlement — estimates only. AEMO settlement applies DLF, rebids, constraints, and other factors not modelled here.

Notes
No plant-specific greenfield capex announcement or owner/developer total project cost was found in the searched official/primary sources. Public sources confirm Braemar Power Project Pty Ltd operates Braemar units 2 and 3 as OCGT and that Braemar Power Station is the relevant asset, but the capital cost remains undisclosed in the available sources. Because no verified plant-specific capex was found, no benchmark fallback has been applied here pending further review per instructions. The plant is an older operating asset and published operating assumptions are sparse in primary sources.
