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.

Capex total (greenfield)	$717.21M Shown in table $717.21M (2026 real AUD) Reported / source value $700.00M (2025 nominal) Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups). How this was derived Project-specific reported development cost for Garoo Solar Farm and BESS. Reference Pre-Development Application PDA-78777462 (high confidence) Source recorded 07 Jun 2026

Capex / MW	$4,523,662 Shown in table $4.52M (2026 real AUD) Reported / source value $4.42M (2025 nominal) Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups). How this was derived Derived capex intensity using the official project cost and planning-portal solar capacity reference. Reference Garoo Solar Farm (medium confidence) Source recorded 07 Jun 2026
Fixed OPEX (annual)	—
Fixed OPEX / MW-yr	$18,443 Shown in table $18.4k (2026 real AUD) Reported / source value $18.0k (2025 nominal) Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups). How this was derived Server-side default used because no plant-specific O&M source was found.
Variable OPEX / MWh	$0.20 Shown in table $0.20 (2026 real AUD) Reported / source value $0.20 (2025 nominal) Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups). How this was derived Server-side default used because no plant-specific variable O&M source was found.

Notes
Project-specific estimated development cost of AUD 700 million (excl GST) was found in a NSW Planning Portal pre-development application for Garoo Solar Farm and BESS. The site page and planning portal indicate the project includes solar and BESS; the reported cost appears to cover the combined development, not solar-only. Solar capacity is shown as 155 MW on the planning portal and about 134 MW AC on the project website; the NEM listing shows 160 MW. Capacity inconsistencies mean capex_per_mw is based on the 155 MW planning-portal figure as the closest official project capacity reference, but should be reviewed. No separate refurbishment cost was identified. Operating cost defaults were used for fixed/variable O&M because no plant-specific O&M source was found. Asset life assumed at 30 years as a typical utility-scale solar PV default.
