Notes
Plant-specific reported investment found in ExxonMobil Australia/LinkedIn opening remarks: $200 million investment for the Hastings Generation Site. Capacity confirmed at 43 MW. Construction commenced June 2023; commercial operations due to commence as soon as 1 April 2024. The site is expected to operate for 11 years (2024-2034). No reliable plant-specific O&M, fuel, heat-rate, or emissions-intensity source was found in the retrieved results, so server-side defaults and blanks were retained where appropriate.
