Notes
No plant-specific greenfield capex announcement was found in official owner/government sources. For operating assumptions, AEMO's 2024 cost and parameter review provides a hypothetical biogas project with fixed O&M of $235,556/MW-yr and variable O&M of $13.79/MWh (net), but the report does not provide a direct landfill-gas reciprocating-engine heat rate, fuel price, or emissions factor for Wingfield II. Wingfield II is listed by EDL as 4.1 MW with start of operation in 1991.
