Supplementary notes

CAPEX: capital expenditures required to achieve commercial operation in a given year.
Overnight capital costs are modified projections that were adjusted by removing the material price index. The material price index accounts for projected changes in the price index for metals and metals products, and it is independent of the learning-based cost reductions applied in the projections.
