Are the costs for storage or an for alternative source for when it's
dark factored in?


Course not.


Yes, they are. They use Powerpacks. And I'd expect they'll still keep a
few of the diesel generators they used before, for emergencies.

And the actual costs will be less the massive subsidy they got to
install them, and the 'green bank' zero rate loans...

Where did you read that? Somehow I think you'll be playing your cards
fairly close to your chest ;-)

To my knowledge this was an open auction for a market supplier. And the
subsidies of the past were for diesel - not counting the externalities.

If anything it's likely more expensive than a state operation, cartels
and all of that.
