Financial overview

2026 real AUD. Monetary values are CPI-adjusted to 2026 real Australian dollars. Greenfield capex uses AEMO benchmarks when plant-specific cost is unknown.

Capex total (greenfield)	$527.43M Source value $500.00M (2024 nominal) How this was derived Official AIP project summary for Callide Wind Farm states capital expenditure is at least $500 million. Reference Australian Industry Participation Plan Summary - Project Phase (high confidence)
Capex refurbishment	—
Capex / MW	$1,251,011 Source value $1.19M (2024 nominal) How this was derived Per-MW capex is a conservative minimum derived from the reported project capex floor and the registered capacity. Reference Australian Industry Participation Plan Summary - Project Phase (medium confidence)
Capex / MWh storage	—
Fixed OPEX (annual)	$24.46M Source value $23.19M (2024 nominal) How this was derived Annual fixed O&M was calculated from the fallback per-MW rate and the site capacity.
Fixed OPEX / MW-yr	$58,017 Source value $55.0k (2024 nominal) How this was derived No plant-specific onshore wind fixed O&M figure was found in the official/owner sources searched, so the provided fallback was used.
Variable OPEX / MWh	$0.53 Source value $0.50 (2024 nominal) How this was derived No plant-specific variable O&M figure was found in the official/owner sources searched, so the provided fallback was used.

Notes
Plant-specific capital expenditure was not disclosed as an exact amount in the available source; the official AIP summary states 'Capital expenditure: $500 million or more'. I used $500 million as the minimum reported project capex for normalised costing, which is conservative and likely understates true total project investment. The project is described as a new facility with up to 70 wind turbines, a 275/33kV site substation, BESS, 275kV switchyard, export lines and ancillary infrastructure. Construction completion in the AIP summary is listed as 31 Dec 2026, but the project website now says construction is planned to commence in 2027, so the timing is somewhat inconsistent across sources.
