Dated milestones from the UK Renewable Energy Planning Database (REPD), Q2 2026 — not estimates.
From application to operation, this scheme took about 3 years.
The register links a second scheme on this site (REPD ref 19577, Application Submitted): 10 turbines · 7.2 MW each · 230 m tip height · applicant Fred Olsen Renewables. Two schemes on one site usually mean a repowering or an extension — to be confirmed with the operator.

The application was determined in about 21 months. A planning permission on this site expired in January 2016. The scheme has been operating for about 22 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.
