It is shown because two independent facts — turbine count and rated power — match the database exactly. Awaiting confirmation from a primary source.

The register links a second scheme on this site (REPD ref 3019, Operational): 4 turbines · 2.3 MW each · applicant Good Energy Generation. Two schemes on one site usually mean a repowering or an extension — to be confirmed with the operator.

What the register tells us

The scheme has been operating for about 35 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 0.4 MW per turbine on average.
