Notes
Plant-specific greenfield CAPEX for Brinkworth BESS was not found in the sources searched. Available owner/developer sources confirm the project is proposed at 250MW/1000MWh and located adjacent to Brinkworth Substation; South Australian government release confirms Brinkworth BESS was awarded under the state's FERM tender, but no project cost was disclosed. Because no project-specific investment figure was found, CAPEX has not been estimated here. O&M, asset life, and other operating assumptions were not sourced specifically for this asset and remain unfilled.
