What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 18 months. Construction to first power took about 14 months. The register records a refusal in October 2007 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in February 2008. A planning permission on this site expired in February 2011. The scheme has been operating for about 13 years. That works out at 2.05 MW per turbine on average.
