Notes
No plant-specific greenfield capex announcement located for Jindabyne Mini Hydro. Snowy Hydro sources confirm the unit was built onto Jindabyne Dam and completed in 2009/1973 references, but no construction cost was found. Conventional hydropower benchmark O&M from AEMO/Aurecon was used as fallback. Because the site is a very small retrofit/mini-hydro asset, benchmark CAPEX would not be reliable without a project-specific source.
