What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 14 months. Construction to first power took about 16 months. The register records a refusal in December 2012 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in July 2013. A planning permission on this site expired in July 2015. The scheme has been operating for about 7 years. That works out at 2.07 MW per turbine on average.
