Notes
No plant-specific capex/thermal performance/efficiency/heat-rate found for this generator. Fixed and variable OPEX and emissions intensity populated from provided internal defaults; capex left as null because a battery benchmark CAPEX value (AUD/MW and nominal year) could not be reliably extracted from the available AEMO/CSIRO battery cost review content within this run.
