Notes
Plant-specific project capital investment value of $32 million was reported in the NSW Department assessment report for the Hume Battery Energy Storage System (SSD10460). GSP Energy’s project page confirms Hume North BESS is a 75 MW / 150 MWh battery project at Lake Hume Village. No separate owner-published total project cost was found in the search results. O&M defaults to the AEMO 2025 large-scale lithium-ion BESS 4-hour benchmark (fixed O&M $16,000/MW-year; variable O&M included in fixed O&M). Asset life assumed from AEMO 2025 large-scale lithium-ion BESS technical parameters. Battery has zero direct fuel use and zero direct emissions intensity.
