Notes
Plant-specific greenfield capital cost found in a contemporaneous press report describing Tahmoor as a $8 million methane generator project. I did not find a more direct owner/developer announcement or a separate refurbishment cost. The station is listed by the CER as Tahmoor Power Plant under waste coal mine gas accreditation, and EDL’s current Tahmoor materials identify the licence holder as EDL (TT) Pty Ltd. Capex is therefore treated as reported but with medium confidence because the source is a news report rather than an owner press release.
