Footnote
Energy predicted to be generated by the proposal is derived using wind speeds monitored in the local area and correlating to a Met Office station providing longer term data. This enables a calculation to be made to estimate the average annual energy production for the site based on 23 turbines totalling a capacity of 19.3MW. The energy capture predicted and hence derived homes equivalent or emissions savings figures may change as further data are gathered.
 
Equivalent homes supplied is based on an annual electricity consumption per home of 4700 kWh. This figure is supported by recent domestic electricity consumption data available from The Digest of UK Energy Statistics and household estimates and projections from the UK Statistics Authority.
