What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 29 months. Construction to first power took about 17 months. The register records a refusal in October 2008 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in December 2009. A planning permission on this site expired in December 2013. The scheme has been operating for about 13 years. That works out at 3.3 MW per turbine on average.
