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
No reliable plant-specific greenfield capex announcement found for Jeeralang A/JLA03. EnergyAustralia describes Jeeralang as a seven-unit open-cycle gas turbine peaking plant with 450 MW total capacity and notes it was purchased in 2018. O&M and performance assumptions use AEMO/Aurecon 2024 OCGT benchmark values where plant-specific data was not available. Capacity used for fixed O&M scaling is 53 MW as provided by the user; public source pages describe the whole Jeeralang station rather than the single DUID unit.
