What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 22 months. Construction to first power took about 55 months. The register records a refusal in February 2003 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in May 2004. A planning permission on this site expired in May 2018. The scheme has been operating for about 15 years. That works out at 0.87 MW per turbine on average.
