Dated milestones from the UK Renewable Energy Planning Database (REPD), Q2 2026 — not estimates.
From application to operation, this scheme took about 4 years.

The application was determined in about 23 months. Construction to first power took about 1 month. The register records a refusal in September 2003 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in October 2004. A planning permission on this site expired in October 2017. 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 MW per turbine on average.
