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

The register links a second scheme on this site (REPD ref 4235, Operational): 2 turbines · 3.2 MW each · applicant Community Windpower. 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 6 months. Construction to first power took about 13 months. A planning permission on this site expired in December 2015. The scheme has been operating for about 14 years. That works out at 3 MW per turbine on average.
