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
Plant-specific greenfield capex was found in an official Australian Industry Participation summary for Clarke Creek Wind Farm Stage 1. The project later secured $1 billion financing and stage one is a 450 MW project, but the reported capital expenditure used here is the official project capex figure from the 2021 AIP summary. Because the public source is for Stage 1, capex per MW is calculated using the registered DUID capacity of 103.5 MW as requested, which likely overstates unit cost if the $1.06 billion figure is for the broader stage-one project rather than this DUID alone.
