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

2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 Original scheme Application submitted August 2002 Permission granted November 2003 Operational February 2005 Later scheme Application submitted June 2005 Permission granted May 2008 Operational July 2009

From application to operation, this scheme took about 3 years.

The register links a second scheme on this site (REPD ref 4688, Operational): 6 turbines · 1.5 MW each · applicant Greencoat UK Wind. Two schemes on one site usually mean a repowering or an extension — to be confirmed with the operator.

What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 15 months. The scheme has been operating for about 21 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 1.5 MW per turbine on average.
