What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 34 months. Construction to first power took about 20 months. The register records a refusal in April 2015 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in June 2017. A planning permission on this site expired in June 2020. The scheme has been operating for about 4 years. That works out at 2.5 MW per turbine on average.
