Dated milestones from the UK Renewable Energy Planning Database (REPD), Q2 2026 — not estimates.

2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 Original scheme Application submitted December 2010 Refused December 2011 Later scheme Application submitted November 2013 Permission granted April 2015 Under construction April 2016 Operational April 2017 Permission expired April 2018

The register links a second scheme on this site (REPD ref 4544, Operational): 9 turbines · 3.45 MW each · applicant EDF Energy Renewables. Two schemes on one site usually mean a repowering or an extension — to be confirmed with the operator.

What the register tells us

The register records a refusal in December 2011 before the scheme progressed. That works out at 2 MW per turbine on average.
