Shown in table
$239.19M (2026 real AUD)

Reported / source value
$233.45M (2025 nominal)
Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups).

How this was derived
Calculated benchmark capex total for the solar component only.

Notes
No plant-specific greenfield investment announcement for Kerang Hybrid was found in the searched owner/government sources. Capex and O&M therefore use AEMO/Aurecon benchmark assumptions for a utility-scale solar PV ground-mount project, applied to the 161 MW DC solar component. The project page states Kerang Hybrid is a proposed 161 MW DC solar farm with a 55 MW/110 MWh battery and construction targeted to commence in late 2025; the benchmark source indicates single-axis tracking systems have higher capital and maintenance requirements than fixed-tilt systems. The calculated capex_per_mw_aud is based on the benchmark relative cost of $1.45/W DC for the 20 MW ground-mount solar PV case, and fixed OPEX is set at $12,000/MW-yr from the same benchmark table.
