From application to operation, this scheme took about 5 years.

The register links a second scheme on this site (REPD ref 4491, Planning Permission Expired): 4 turbines · 2.1 MW each · applicant West Coast Energy. Two schemes on one site usually mean a repowering or an extension — to be confirmed with the operator.

What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 29 months. The register records a refusal in July 2009 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in January 2011. The scheme has been operating for about 13 years. That works out at 2.02 MW per turbine on average.
