How big is Chonais Hydro?
Chonais Hydro has a recorded installed capacity of 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 Chonais Hydro?
REPD records the operator as Green Highland Renewables. 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 Chonais Hydro approved and built?
The application was submitted on 2007-04-30. Permission was granted on 2009-03-12, 22 months later. The site became operational on 2015-01-15, 70 months after consent.
