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.
  • 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
Project-specific reported greenfield total project cost of $160 million was announced at financial close for Kennedy Energy Park Phase I, which included 43.2 MW of wind plus 15 MW solar and a battery; capex_per_mw is calculated on the wind DUID share only. No separate wind-only construction cost was found. Fixed O&M used server fallback/default for onshore wind due to lack of plant-specific O&M data. The wind component was initially announced at different earlier scope/capacity levels, but the reported $160 million financial-close figure is the best available project-level source for the final phase I hybrid project.
