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 pricedispatch_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.

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.

$477.69M (2026 real AUD)

Reported / source value
$309.54M (2010 nominal)
Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups).

How this was derived
Provides a plant-specific reported project cost for the greenfield build.

How this was derived
Calculated from internal fallback, not from sourced project cost math, to respect the requested schema fields.

Fixed OPEX (annual)

Shown in table
$4.16M (2026 real AUD)

Reported / source value
$3.95M (2024 nominal)
Table total may differ if recalculated from $/MW × registered capacity after CPI adjustment.

How this was derived
Derived annual fixed O&M by multiplying benchmark by site capacity.

$29.5k (2026 real AUD)

Reported / source value
$28.0k (2024 nominal)
Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups).

How this was derived
Uses the onshore wind fixed O&M benchmark from AEMO's 2024 cost review.

$0.00 (2026 real AUD)

Reported / source value
$0.00 (2024 nominal)
Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups).

How this was derived
AEMO's onshore wind assumption is that variable O&M is included in fixed O&M.

Notes
Plant-specific greenfield project cost was found from a secondary project database rather than an owner press release. The wind farm commenced generating in September 2009 and is reported as 140.7 MW / 67 turbines. No refurbishment-specific capex was identified. Fixed O&M uses AEMO 2024 onshore wind benchmark. Variable O&M is treated as included in fixed O&M for wind, so set to 0.
