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.

Capex total (greenfield)
$740.74M

Shown in table
$740.74M (2026 real AUD)

Reported / source value
$560.00M (2018 nominal)
Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups).

How this was derived
Official Victorian Government source states Dundonnell Wind Farm was a $560 million project and that it received a support agreement in late 2018.

$6.08M (2026 real AUD)

Reported / source value
$4.60M (2018 nominal)
Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups).

How this was derived
Derived by dividing the reported total project cost by the user-provided DUID capacity of 121.8 MW.

Notes
Project-specific greenfield capex was found from the Victorian Government: the Dundonnell Wind Farm was a $560 million project under VRET1. This figure is used instead of AEMO benchmark capex. The project is 336 MW overall; capex has been normalised to the provided 121.8 MW DUID capacity for capex_per_mw_aud. No separate refurbishment cost was found.
