How we count

Counted from the project database (sources on each project page) and planned power-station stops (Nord Pool UMM, Elexon, Elia). Announced: the phase falls in the month by announced dates, or a stop's own dates. Typical: only the start is known, so the project counts for at most the typical length of that phase for its type (Crew Forecast model). Operation is not counted. Role groups per phase are our planning assumption. Counts, not people.
