Notes
I could not find a plant-specific greenfield investment or construction cost announcement for Blenheim BESS - KCI / Gatton Solar Farm Pty Ltd in the available web results. The only directly relevant public result located was a general NEM listing identifying the unit and owner, plus a non-official planning page indicating the broader Gatton solar-and-battery project context. No verified project capex, storage MWh, or commissioning date was found, so capex and operating assumptions are left blank rather than inferred from benchmarks. The source record in the NEM listing appears to show the battery unit as 29 MW, which is consistent with the supplied 29.25 MW capacity, but I did not use it for financial estimation.
