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.

Notes
No reliable plant-specific greenfield construction cost was found for Jeeralang B / JLB02. A news report from 2023 states an estimated cost of $75 million for one new Jeeralang B unit, but this appears to refer to a brownfield unit replacement/upgrade rather than original plant construction, so it is recorded as refurbishment capex only. Jeeralang was acquired by EnergyAustralia in 2018; the plant served as an intermediate/peaking gas-fired station. O&M and heat-rate parameters were taken from AEMO/Aurecon technology review assumptions for OCGT. Fixed O&M was normalized to annual dollars using the 2024 review value multiplied by 76 MW.
