Notes
Plant-specific development cost found in NSW planning documents for Gundary Solar Farm: AUD650 million estimated development cost (excl GST). Public sources describe the project as 400MWdc / 320MWac, with no commissioned online date yet available; the project was still in planning / development as of 2026 sources. Fixed OPEX is a server-side default applied due to lack of plant-specific O&M evidence.
