Who operates Aikengall IIa Community Wind Farm?

REPD records the operator as Community Windpower. Ownership of built renewable assets changes hands regularly and REPD is published quarterly, so treat this as the operator of record rather than confirmation of who owns it today.

The application was submitted on 1 February 2014. Permission was granted on 19 October 2016, 33 months later. The site became operational on 1 November 2021, 60 months after consent.

Source: Renewable Energy Planning Database (REPD), Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, Open Government Licence v3.0, plus planning designation boundaries from planning.data.gov.uk (England only). REPD is published quarterly and covers schemes of roughly 150 kW and above. Capacity is the installed capacity on record, not metered generation. Operator is the operator of record at the last extract, not confirmation of present ownership. Reference 4591.
