How big is Ceannacroc?

Who operates Ceannacroc?
REPD records the operator as Scottish and Southern Energy (SSE). 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 Ceannacroc approved and built?
REPD does not record a submission date. REPD does not record a grant date. The site became operational on 1 January 1956.
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 402.
