Notes
Project application documents for Baldon Wind Farm Pty Ltd state a Capital Investment Value (excl GST) of AUD 2.9 billion for the project. The project website identifies Goldwind Australia as the proponent. No plant-specific operating cost or refurbishment cost was found in the searched sources, so only the internal fallback variable OPEX was used; fixed OPEX remains unpopulated pending a sourced benchmark.
