What the register tells us

The application was determined in about 17 months. Construction to first power took about 14 months. The register records a refusal in January 2012 before the scheme progressed. Permission was ultimately granted on appeal in January 2012. A planning permission on this site expired in January 2017. The scheme has been operating for about 11 years. That works out at 1.8 MW per turbine on average.
