What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 20 months. Construction to first power took about 13 months. The register records a refusal in December 2011 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in August 2012. A planning permission on this site expired in August 2011. The scheme has been operating for about 10 years. That works out at 3 MW per turbine on average.
