Notes 1. Energy predicted to be generated by the proposal has been calculated using an assumed capacity factor of 26% (DTI Energy Trends UK regional capacity factors 1998-2004), and is based on an installed capacity of between 8 and 12 MW. The energy capture predicted and hence derived homes equivalent may change as site specific information is gathered. Equivalent homes supplied is based on an annual electricity consumption per home of 4,700kWh2, which is derived from a total UK domestic electricity consumption of 117.589 terawatt-hours (TWh) (The Digest of UK Energy Statistics 2005) and 25.2 million UK households (Mid-year Household Estimates published in 2004 by the Office for National Statistics).
