How big is Braevallich?
Braevallich has a recorded installed capacity of 2.2 MW. That figure is the capacity registered in REPD, which is the scheme as consented — the metered output of a site can differ.
Who operates Braevallich?
REPD records the operator as Innogy. 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.
When was Braevallich approved and built?
The application was submitted on 7 August 2002. Permission was granted on 26 March 2003, 8 months later. The site became operational on 1 January 2005, 21 months after consent.

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 503.
