Dated milestones from the UK Renewable Energy Planning Database (REPD), Q2 2026 — not estimates.
The register also records a planning permission expiry in May 2015, after commissioning: an administrative date with no effect on the operating wind farm, left off the axis.
DevelopmentConstructionOperationAhead (repowering horizon at 22 years)
From application to operation, this scheme took about 5 years.
Source: Renewable Energy Planning Database, Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, Open Government Licence v3.0. REPD ref 3161.
The application was determined in about 32 months. The register records a refusal in May 2005 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in May 2006. A planning permission on this site expired in May 2015. The scheme has been operating for about 18 years. That works out at 2 MW per turbine on average.
