What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 32 months. The register records a refusal in May 2019 before the scheme progressed. The scheme has been operating for about 26 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 0.66 MW per turbine on average.
