Dated milestones from the UK Renewable Energy Planning Database (REPD), Q2 2026 — not estimates.
From application to operation, this scheme took about 9 years.
Source: Renewable Energy Planning Database, Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, Open Government Licence v3.0. REPD ref 3307.
The application was determined in about 5 months. The scheme has been operating for about 20 years. At that age, wind farms commonly become candidates for repowering or life extension — nothing in the register confirms such a plan here. That works out at 2.5 MW per turbine on average.
