What this site sits on
The recorded coordinate falls on land surveyed as Urban agricultural land.
REPD gives one representative coordinate per scheme, not the site boundary, so this describes the point on record rather than the whole site — a large site can straddle a designation edge. Boundaries come from planning.data.gov.uk, which publishes for England only.

How big is Colchester STW?
Colchester STW has a recorded installed capacity of 1.2 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 Colchester STW?
REPD records the operator as Anglian Water Services Ltd. 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 Colchester STW approved and built?
The application was submitted on 2012-06-01. Permission was granted on 2012-10-09, 4 months later. The site became operational on 2013-09-11, 11 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 2390.
