✓ Independently confirmed on 2026-09-19 by Siemens, offshore sales presentation: 25x SWT-3.6-107, 2009 — from the manufacturer, which lifts the earlier caveat “model to be confirmed with RWE”.
Dated milestones from the UK Renewable Energy Planning Database (REPD), Q2 2026 — not estimates.
The register also records a planning permission expiry in Jan 2015, after construction had started: an administrative date with no effect on the wind farm, left off the axis.

From application to operation, this scheme took about 7 years.

The application was determined in about 10 months. Construction to first power took about 27 months. A planning permission on this site expired in January 2015. The scheme has been operating for about 17 years. That works out at 3.6 MW per turbine on average.
