- Generation: A$93/MWh generated.
- Spill: 19% of output is not used, and its cost is spread over the MWh that are.
- Battery, transmission and gas backup: together they bring the grid cost at the meter to A$187/MWh.
- Chargers and in-mine lines: 85 chargers at 6 MW and the in-mine power lines, spread over truck charging only, add A$99, for A$286 delivered at the meter.
- Charging loss: an 8% loss brings it to A$311 into the truck battery.
All at an 8% real pre-tax WACC.
