Notes
No plant-specific greenfield capex announcement could be verified from the owner/developer or government sources in the available search results. GPG Australia confirms Bundaberg was under construction in 2024 and identifies it as a 100 MW photovoltaic project; however, the sources located do not provide a total project cost. O&M and life assumptions were therefore proxied from AEMO/Aurecon 2024 large-scale solar PV benchmarks. The benchmark values found are for utility-scale solar PV and indicate single-axis tracking has higher capital cost and maintenance requirements than fixed-tilt systems. The fixed O&M figure retrieved appears to be an annual total for a hypothetical large-scale project rather than a per-MW figure, so it should be reviewed before use in valuation models.
