All 38 Documented Cases
Lifecycle Cost Visibility Failures in Asset Business Case Development
Estimated 3-5% of project Net Present Value (NPV) lost through suboptimal component selection; for a AUD $50M solar project with 35-year lifespan discounted at 7%, typical NPV loss = AUD $1.5M-2.5MAudit findings in Australian renewable energy operations (e.g., Peel Renewable Energy) explicitly identify gaps in lifecycle cost documentation. Without visibility into 25, 30, or 35-year asset costs, procurement teams optimize for capex rather than lifecycle expense, selecting cheaper equipment that creates expensive maintenance and replacement burdens.
Warranty Registration Deadline Misses & Void Coverage
Per missed registration: AUD 2,000–10,000 (cost of replacement or repair outside warranty). Estimated rate: 5–15% of installations miss the registration deadline. For installer with 100 systems/year: AUD 10,000–150,000/year potential loss. Estimated probability-weighted loss (assuming 50% of missed registrations result in claims): AUD 5,000–75,000/year.Most solar manufacturers (including Growatt, per search results) require warranty registration within a specific window after installation. Lack of automated ticketing or reminders means registration deadlines are frequently missed. Once the window closes, coverage is void. Retailers then face customer claims under Australian Consumer Law (implied warranties for goods/services) and must either absorb replacement costs (AUD 2,000–10,000 per system) or risk reputational damage and churn.
Spot Price Settlement Disputes
AUD 0.5-2/MWh settlement variance; 10-20 hours/month per contract in dispute resolutionComplex CFD calculations in PPAs expose firms to settlement risks from spot price volatility, requiring precise monthly reconciliations prone to human error.
LGC Entitlement Losses
AUD 50-200 per MWh forfeited; typical 5-10% of PPA value for large contracts >50 GWh/yearFailure to accurately reconcile and claim LGCs tied to PPA generation leads to forfeited revenue, as LGCs prove renewable output and have market value.
