How big is Glendoe Hydro Scheme?
Glendoe Hydro Scheme has a recorded installed capacity of 100 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 Glendoe Hydro Scheme?
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 Glendoe Hydro Scheme approved and built?
The application was submitted on 1 May 2003. Permission was granted on 28 July 2005, 27 months later. The site became operational on 1 December 2008, 40 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 388.
