Financial overview

2026 real AUD. Monetary values are CPI-adjusted to 2026 real Australian dollars. Greenfield capex uses AEMO benchmarks when plant-specific cost is unknown.

Capex total (greenfield)
$11.53M

Shown in table
$11.53M (2026 real AUD)

Reported / source value
$11.25M (2025 nominal)
Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups).

How this was derived
No credible owner/government/project finance capex figure was located in the search results, so the internal fallback was applied.

Shown in table
$71.7k (2026 real AUD)

Reported / source value
$70.0k (2025 nominal)
Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups).

How this was derived
Used only as contextual support for biomass O&M assumptions; the actual numeric fixed OPEX is internal fallback.

$5.12 (2026 real AUD)

Reported / source value
$5.00 (2025 nominal)
Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups).

How this was derived
Confirms bagasse biomass is a relevant NEM technology category; the numeric variable OPEX remains fallback.

Notes
No plant-specific greenfield capex announcement or owner/government investment figure was found in the searched sources. Invicta Mill is an existing bagasse cogeneration plant; historical sources identify it as CSR/Haughton Sugar and note the site as a renewable energy project completed in 1996, with 50 MW plant and 35-40 MW export capacity. Because no verified construction cost was found, capex uses the provided internal fallback estimate. The operating cost assumptions also use fallback values, with biomass/bagasse context supported by AEMO and energy.gov.au sources.
