Financial overview

2026 real AUD. Monetary values are CPI-adjusted to 2026 real Australian dollars. Greenfield capex uses AEMO benchmarks when plant-specific cost is unknown.

Shown in table
$20.73M (2026 real AUD)

Reported / source value
$19.65M (2024 nominal)
Adjusted to 2026 real AUD using Australian CPI (All Groups).

How this was derived
Searches of owner, government, and project sources did not surface a Wollert-specific build cost, so no capex figure is reported.

Notes
Wollert appears to have been operating since 2006 and is reported by LMS Energy as a bioenergy/landfill-gas facility. I found no credible plant-specific greenfield capex announcement for Wollert, so capex is left null rather than substituting a benchmark. The O&M and heat-rate assumptions are taken from AEMO/Aurecon reciprocating-engine benchmark material for landfill/biogas-style plant economics, which is a proxy rather than site-specific data.
