Solar farm at Sheraton Hall Farm, Sheraton, County Durham, TS27 4RD
Lightsource bp is funding the development of a solar installation that will have an output power capacity of 49.9MW (Megawatts).
We have selected the site area shown below, and we’re now undertaking a wide range of environmental assessments to help shape our plans. These include landscape and visual, heritage and archaeology, ecology and more. We presented the plans for the project to the local community for their input before submitting the proposal to the local council, who granted planning permission.
