Notes
No plant-specific greenfield capex figure for Calvale Solar Farm was found in the searched owner/developer, government, or news sources. The result set contained relevant Lightsource bp project pages for other Australian solar farms (e.g. Goulburn River, Wellington, Woolooga) but not Calvale Solar Farm. Internal technology defaults were therefore retained for capex/O&M. Capacity assumed at 500 MW for fixed O&M scaling.
