Notes
No plant-specific owner/developer capex announcement was found in search results. Used an AEMO/Aurecon solar PV benchmark for a 40 MW ground-mount project as the closest available fallback; Koberinga is a 55 MW fixed-tilt solar PV project. The benchmark capex estimate from the Townsville Renewable Energy Hub report was for Koberinga Solar Farm at $64.79 million (nominal, estimated), which implies about $1.18 million/MW. Fixed O&M was taken from the AEMO/Aurecon 40 MW ground-mount solar PV hypothetical project at $12,000/MWp-year, giving $660,000/year for 55 MW. Project status appears shelved in 2025 sources, so operating assumptions should be treated cautiously.
