What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 21 months. Construction to first power took about 5 months. The scheme has been operating for about 22 years. At that age, wind farms commonly become candidates for repowering or life extension — nothing in the register confirms such a plan here. That works out at 2 MW per turbine on average.
