What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 40 months. Construction to first power took about 30 months. The register records a refusal in October 2009 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in October 2009. A planning permission on this site expired in October 2013. The scheme has been operating for about 8 years. That works out at 3.2 MW per turbine on average.
