Notes
I could not verify a plant-specific greenfield construction or investment cost for Morundah Solar Power Plant (Thermal) from the owner/developer or official project sources in the searches performed. The search results instead surfaced unrelated Photon Energy and concentrated solar thermal references, plus general CST background material. Because no credible project-specific capex was found, capex fields remain null rather than using an AEMO/CSIRO benchmark. The site appears to be a solar thermal / concentrating solar technology asset, but I could not verify capacity, storage, or commissioning date from the sources searched.
