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.

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.

$3,504.67M (2026 real AUD)

Reported / source value
$3,000.00M (2022 nominal)
Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups).

How this was derived
Project-level investment for Goyder South Stage 1 / GSWF reported as up to A$3 billion.

Notes
Plant-specific public sources located for the broader Goyder South project indicate total investment of up to A$3 billion for the full Stage 1/precinct, which includes the 209 MW Stage 1A tranche. No source found giving a separate 209 MW-only greenfield capex for GSWF1A, so the reported project-level figure was used as the best available proxy. Onshore wind O&M and technical assumptions were taken from AEMO/Aurecon GenCost 2024 review; wind has no fuel cost, heat rate, or direct combustion emissions.
