How big is Ewe Hill?
Ewe Hill has a recorded installed capacity of 13.8 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 Ewe Hill?
REPD records the operator as Scottish Power 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.

The application was submitted on 7 April 2004. Permission was granted on 7 June 2010, 74 months later. The site became operational on 30 May 2016, 72 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 4015.
