It is shown because two independent facts — turbine count and rated power — match the database exactly. Awaiting confirmation from a primary source.

The register also records a planning permission expiry in Feb 2013, after commissioning: an administrative date with no effect on the operating wind farm, left off the axis.

DevelopmentConstructionOperationAhead (repowering horizon at 22 years)

From application to operation, this scheme took about 3 years.

The register links a second scheme on this site (REPD ref 4298, Appeal Withdrawn): 5 turbines · 2.5 MW each · applicant Energiekontor UK. Two schemes on one site usually mean a repowering or an extension — to be confirmed with the operator.

What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 7 months. A planning permission on this site expired in February 2013. The scheme has been operating for about 17 years. That works out at 2.5 MW per turbine on average.
