Performance data reflects combined energy arbitrage and FCAS revenue, not corrected for marginal loss factors (MLF) for purposes of comparison. Data derived from publicly available AEMO settlement reports.
Compared to 2024
Our NSW energy-only results are roughly similar to last year, with the same ranking among assets. VIC and SA results are new for 2025.
Also new for 2025, we are publishing results with co-optimised FCAS participation, which delivers even higher revenue than our energy-only strategy.
