Notes
No plant-specific greenfield investment figure for Goorambat BESS (Lighthouse) was found in the searched official/developer sources. Available search results primarily related to other Lightsource bp projects (especially Goulburn River and Woolooga) or general company pages, so using a project-specific capex for this site would require further verification. Because the site is a battery project and no operating/fuel data were located, O&M, heat rate, fuel, and efficiency fields are left null rather than backfilled from unrelated technologies.
