Dated milestones from the UK Renewable Energy Planning Database (REPD), Q2 2026 — not estimates.

The register also records a planning permission expiry in Mar 2000, in the same month as, or before, the permission was granted: it refers to an earlier permission, left off the axis.

From application to operation, this scheme took about 6 years.

What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 21 months. Construction to first power took about 9 months. The register records a refusal in March 2008 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in March 2009. A planning permission on this site expired in March 2000. The scheme has been operating for about 13 years. That works out at 2.06 MW per turbine on average.
