Dated milestones from the UK Renewable Energy Planning Database (REPD), Q2 2026 — not estimates.
The register also records a planning permission expiry in Dec 2018, after construction had started: an administrative date with no effect on the wind farm, left off the axis.
DevelopmentConstructionOperationAhead (repowering horizon at 22 years)
From application to operation, this scheme took about 5 years.
The register links a second scheme on this site (REPD ref 6299, Application Refused): 34 turbines · 10 MW each · 210 m tip height · applicant Vattenfall. Two schemes on one site usually mean a repowering or an extension — to be confirmed with the operator.

The application was determined in about 13 months. Construction to first power took about 10 months. A planning permission on this site expired in December 2018. The scheme has been operating for about 16 years. That works out at 3 MW per turbine on average.
