Notes
Capex is taken from the Victorian Government announcement for the approved 450 MW Hazelwood North Solar Farm project. The public sources located describe the project as a 450 MW solar farm with a 450 MW / 1,800 MWh battery, but the $651 million figure appears to cover the overall project announcement rather than a separately itemised solar-only DUID cost. No plant-specific owner-issued capex announcement was found in the search results; therefore the reported project cost is used as the best available greenfield project investment proxy for this site.
