What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 16 months. Construction to first power took about 17 months. The register records a refusal in June 2013 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in January 2014. A planning permission on this site expired in January 2018. The scheme has been operating for about 10 years. That works out at 3.2 MW per turbine on average.
