Reported / source value
$3.00M (2025 nominal)
Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups).

How this was derived
Using Ark Energy's reported ~A$3 billion capital investment and ~1,000 MW output implies about A$3.0 million per MW.

Notes
Plant-specific reported capital investment from Ark Energy sources is ~A$3 billion for a ~1,000 MW project. I used the reported project figure rather than AEMO benchmarks. Project design has evolved over time (2022 newsletter said ~$2.7 billion and ~1,100 MW; 2025/2026 materials say ~A$3 billion and up to <1,000 MW). OPEX defaults were retained because no plant-specific operating-cost disclosure was found. The EPBC summary states the project is expected to have an operational life of 60 years.
