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.
