Notes
Capex priority search did not find a site-specific greenfield investment figure for Stapylton Renewable Energy Facility. The AEMO/Aurecon 2024 review indicates landfill-gas reciprocating engines are typically high-speed spark-ignition units fuelled by waste gas, usually in the <50 MW range. The facility appears in official/regulatory records as an LMS Energy landfill gas project in Queensland, but public sources retrieved here did not provide commissioning date, total project cost, or operating cost assumptions specific to Stapylton.
