Notes
Specific public financial data for Baking Board Battery Storage - KCI was not found. Identity/status/capacity are verified from Nemstats as publicly announced, 400 MW, with no DUID or commercial use date. Capex and fixed O&M are estimated by scaling the ERA/GHD 2025 BRCP benchmark 200 MW / 800 MWh LFP BESS by 2.0x to a notional 400 MW / 1,600 MWh 4-hour battery. Actual storage MWh for Baking Board Battery Storage - KCI was not found, so capex_per_mwh assumes 1,600 MWh. The ERA benchmark is for a WA SWIS transmission-connected BESS, not a Queensland NEM project; it is used as the best current Australian source-backed benchmark. Variable O&M is treated as zero/default because battery marginal operating cost excluding charging energy is commonly not separately identified; fixed O&M includes BESS, substation, balance-of-plant O&M, connection O&M, network charges, overheads, security and rates. Efficiency is interpreted as battery round-trip efficiency, not thermal efficiency. Emissions intensity is direct Scope 1 operational emissions only and excludes grid/solar charging emissions and embodied emissions. No refurbishment, final investment decision, construction start, online date, closure date, or major closure/refurbishment announcement was found.
