What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 71 months. Construction to first power took about 3 months. The register records a refusal in July 2011 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in October 2012. The scheme has been operating for about 10 years. That works out at 2 MW per turbine on average.
