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 capex was not directly disclosed by the owner/developer in the sources found. The only plant-specific project cost located was a prior estimate that the project was 'suggested to cost in the range of $120 million' for the ready-to-construct Glenrowan West Solar Farm; this is used as a reported project-cost proxy, not an AEMO benchmark. The site is described as 149 MWp DC / 110 MW AC in sources, while the user-provided registered capacity is 132 MW; capex_per_mw_aud is calculated using the user-provided 132 MW capacity. O&M and performance fields use server-side defaults where no plant-specific source was found. Expected operating life from the project website is at least 30 years.
