Notes
No plant-specific greenfield capex or refurbishment cost was found in the searched official/project sources. Internal fallback values were used for O&M only. The project appears to be a 300 MW / 600 MWh battery asset in NSW, but I could not verify a reported total investment amount from the owner/developer or government sources. Battery efficiency and asset life are generic technology assumptions, not site-specific measurements.
