What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 19 months. Construction to first power took about 7 months. The register records a refusal in July 2011 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in November 2012. A planning permission on this site expired in November 2014. The scheme has been operating for about 11 years. That works out at 2 MW per turbine on average.
