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.
  • State of chargeINITIAL_ENERGY_STORAGE (MWh at interval start) from UNIT_SOLUTION, published for bidirectional/storage units. Next-day data — the SOC line lags real time by up to a day.
  • 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
ENGIE’s project page confirms Goorambat East Solar Farm is a 250 MW single-axis tracking solar farm under construction in Victoria, with construction completion expected in 2026 and generation expected in 2027. No project-specific total investment/capex figure was found in the searched owner/government sources, so capex is left null rather than substituting an AEMO benchmark. For operating assumptions, the available source only confirms SAT configuration and typical utility-scale PV performance context; no plant-specific O&M or fuel data were found. Asset life set to a typical solar project planning assumption of ~30 years; use with caution.
