Key information
Capacity (AI)
150 MW

No reliable public project announcement or planning source was available in the provided results to verify MW/MWh beyond the AEMO spreadsheet entry; the entry itself lists 150.00 MW and 0.00 MWh.

AEMO status Publicly Announced
Project status Development (AI)

AEMO-style listing shows the asset as "Publicly Announced"; absent a build/commissioning source, the safest inferred phase is development.

How this was derived
Derived from the EDC document’s stated 120 MW / 480 MWh battery system line item, but this may not match the user-supplied 150 MW capacity and is therefore lower confidence.

Notes
No owner-specific capex announcement for this exact 150 MW site was found. The project-specific NSW Estimated Development Cost report for Deniliquin BESS (SSD-72258210) provides an indicative cost estimate of $206,202,342 excluding GST, assessed 23/12/2024 and escalated to an assumed Jan 2027 construction start. This is a project-specific estimate rather than an owner press-release investment announcement. The report describes a 35-year operating life and Q1 2027 start, but the current schema stores capex_year as the report/assessment year because a greenfield announcement year was not available. Fixed and variable OPEX used server defaults.
