How big is Morlais Demonstration Zone?

Morlais Demonstration Zone has a recorded installed capacity of 240 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 Morlais Demonstration Zone?

REPD records the operator as Menter Mon Morlais. 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 Morlais Demonstration Zone approved and built?

The application was submitted on 16 September 2019. Permission was granted on 1 December 2021, 27 months later. The site is recorded as under construction and has no operational date yet.

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 6611.
