Energy flow

Dispatch target (cleared) vs availability — 5‑minute intervals. QLD1 regional price (RRP) on right axis.

Revenue (× MLF)

Estimated $ per interval using regional RRP and MLF effective on each day.

Methodology & assumptions

  • Dispatch & availability — AEMO Next Day Dispatch UNIT_SOLUTION (5‑minute intervals). Intervention intervals excluded.
  • Regional price — dispatch_price RRP matched by settlement time and NEM region (from generator registry).
  • Revenue (× MLF) — cleared MW × (5/60 h) × RRP × MLF. Chart uses MLF effective on each interval’s date; summary total uses MLF as at the end of the selected period (same as the revenue list).
  • Curtailment — estimated economic curtailment when availability exceeds dispatch target: max(0, availability − cleared) × (5/60) MWh.
  • Not settlement — estimates only. AEMO settlement applies DLF, rebids, constraints, and other factors not modelled here.

Financial overview

2026 real AUD. Monetary values are CPI-adjusted to 2026 real Australian dollars. Greenfield capex uses AEMO benchmarks when plant-specific cost is unknown.

Notes
Project-specific greenfield capital expenditure was found in an official Australian Industry Participation summary for Clarke Creek Wind Farm (Stage 1): $1.04 billion, with construction starting in 2021. Squadron Energy and Tattarang also describe Clarke Creek as a $3 billion renewable energy precinct/hub covering stages 1 and 2; that figure appears to be for the broader precinct, not this DUID's stage-1 share, so the reported stage-1 project cost was used for capex_total_aud. Fixed O&M uses the 2025 AEMO/GHD onshore wind benchmark of $29,000/MW/year and variable O&M is included in the fixed component. Onshore wind has no fuel cost or heat rate and zero direct emissions.
