The register also records a planning permission expiry in Sep 2017, after construction had started: an administrative date with no effect on the wind farm, left off the axis.

What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 33 months. Construction to first power took about 6 months. The register records a refusal in August 2012 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in September 2014. A planning permission on this site expired in September 2017. The scheme has been operating for about 9 years. That works out at 3 MW per turbine on average.
