Notes
No plant-specific greenfield capex announcement was found for Halys BESS / South Burnett BESS. X-Elio’s project page identifies the asset as a 300 MW four-hour lithium-ion battery connected to the Powerlink Halys substation, with construction expected to start mid-2026 and operations targeted for end-2027. AEMO draft 2025 technology review provides a 4-hour large-scale lithium-ion BESS fixed O&M benchmark of AUD 16,000/MW/year and a 20-year design/technical life. Because the project-specific capex was not located, capex fields remain unfilled rather than using a benchmark as reported capex.
