What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 18 months. Construction to first power took about 7 months. The register records a refusal in April 2013 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in October 2013. The scheme has been operating for about 9 years. That works out at 2.5 MW per turbine on average.
