Dispatch target (cleared) vs availability — 5‑minute intervals. QLD1 regional price (RRP) on right axis.

Revenue (× MLF)

Estimated $ per interval using regional RRP and MLF effective on each day.

Methodology & assumptions

Dispatch & availability — AEMO Next Day Dispatch UNIT_SOLUTION (5‑minute intervals). Intervention intervals excluded.
Regional price — dispatch_price RRP matched by settlement time and NEM region (from generator registry).
Revenue (× MLF) — cleared MW × (5/60 h) × RRP × MLF. Chart uses MLF effective on each interval’s date; summary total uses MLF as at the end of the selected period (same as the revenue list).
Curtailment — estimated economic curtailment when availability exceeds dispatch target: max(0, availability − cleared) × (5/60) MWh.
Not settlement — estimates only. AEMO settlement applies DLF, rebids, constraints, and other factors not modelled here.

Latest AI note (4 Jun 2026)

Used project-specific reported construction investment of about AUD 2.0 billion for the 1,026 MW MacIntyre Wind Precinct, which includes the 923.4 MW MacIntyre Wind Farm. No separate plant-only capex for the 923.4 MW asset was found in official sources, so the precinct-level figure was allocated across the MacIntyre wind farm capacity for normalization. CleanCo/ACCIONA sources confirm the 923 MW asset is part of the 1,026 MW precinct and that the precinct’s total investment is about AUD 2 billion.
