Dated milestones from the UK Renewable Energy Planning Database (REPD), Q2 2026 — not estimates.

2002 2004 2006 2008 2010 2012 2014 2016 2018 Scheme REPD 3532 Permission granted October 2003 Operational January 2005 Application submitted June 2011 Permission expired October 2015 Scheme REPD 4056 Application submitted September 2005 Permission granted July 2007 Operational July 2007 Permission expired July 2018

The register links a second scheme on this site (REPD ref 4056, Operational): 2 turbines · 1 MW each · applicant Mackies. Two schemes on one site usually mean a repowering or an extension — to be confirmed with the operator.

What the register tells us

A planning permission on this site expired in October 2015. The scheme has been operating for about 21 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 2.5 MW per turbine on average.
