What this site sits on
The recorded coordinate falls on land surveyed as Grade 2 agricultural land.
- Green Belt — Leeds
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.

Who operates Peckfield Quarry Landfill Scheme?
REPD records the operator as Natural Power. 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 Peckfield Quarry Landfill Scheme approved and built?
The application was submitted on 30 June 1998. Permission was granted on 22 September 1998, 3 months later. The site became operational on 25 January 2000, 16 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 744.
