DevelopmentConstructionOperationAhead (repowering horizon at 22 years)
From application to operation, this scheme took about 3 years.
Source: Renewable Energy Planning Database, Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, Open Government Licence v3.0. REPD ref 4215.
The application was determined in about 24 months. Construction to first power took about 11 months. The scheme has been operating for about 10 years. That works out at 2.3 MW per turbine on average.
