There is a rich history of power generation through the famous coal mine in Seaham, this proposed Solar Park will see to continue that. Seaham Solar Park will contribute to the UK Government\u2019s target to meet 95% of its electricity needs from renewable sources by 2030. The total site area is approximately 80 hectares over 4 parcels of land on the edge of Seaham to the south of Ryhope. The larger parcel to the east is located between the railway and the B1285. The two smaller parcels to the west are located to the north of the A19 and the west of the A1018.<\/p><p><b>The Proposal<\/b><br \/>Seaham Solar Park would be an array of solar panels covering approximately 80ha. Our initial site layout plan shows the potential arrangement of solar panels across the site. Due to the scale of the proposed Seaham Solar Park, it will be submitted to Sunderland City Council and Durham County Council, due to it not being a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP) and because it falls within both Local Authorities. This applies to all energy generation projects below 50MW. Seaham Solar Park will generate up to 49 MW of DC for the local Distribution Network Operator (DNO), Northern Powergrid. Our proposal has the potential to provide enough clean, affordable energy to meet the power needs of c. 11,000 homes while avoiding c. 19,000 tonnes of carbon emissions every year.<\/p><p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/seahamgrangefarm.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/thumb_solar.jpg?ssl=1\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"alignright wp-image-8868\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/seahamgrangefarm.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/thumb_solar.jpg?resize=500%2C334&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/seahamgrangefarm.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/thumb_solar.jpg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/seahamgrangefarm.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/thumb_solar.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/seahamgrangefarm.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/thumb_solar.jpg?resize=768%2C513&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a>Connection to Grid<\/b><br \/>We are proposing to utilise existing distribution network infrastructure approximately 1km north of the intersection of the A19 and A1018.\u00a0The location was chosen due to the optimal solar irradiance levels of coastal locations, longer daylight generation from its easterly position, its proximity to the connection point, the topography of the land, the significant level of existing natural screening and lack of agricultural operations on the Site. Underground cables would carry the energy from the panels through to the existing Northern Powergrid Distribution Network, which would distribute the energy to the wider area.<\/p><p>For more details, visit our dedicated website: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seahamsolar.com\">www.seahamsolar.com<\/a><\/p><p><b>Eastern Green Link 1<\/b><\/p><p>EGL1, or Eastern Green Link 1, is\u00a0a planned high-voltage direct current (HVDC) subsea electricity cable connecting Torness in Scotland with Hawthorn Pit in County Durham, England. It is a major \u00a32.5 billion joint venture between\u00a0National Grid Electricity Transmission\u00a0and\u00a0SP Energy Networks. The cable will transport 2GW of renewable energy from North Sea wind farms to power around two million homes and increase the stability of the UK&#8217;s electricity grid.\u00a0<\/p><p>The farm is at the centre of this project hosting the 4-hectare Main Works Compound for the build out of the 10km onshore route to Hawthorn Pit. The works on the EGL1 project began in early 2025 and will continue until the end of the decade as National Grid continue to decarbonise the grid network.<\/p><p>For more details, visit the project website: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.easterngreenlink1.co.uk\/\">www.easterngreenlink1.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5f7442c elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"5f7442c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fd088d6 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"fd088d6\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c6ad89b elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-carousel\" data-id=\"c6ad89b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;slides_to_show&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;navigation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;,&quot;autoplay_speed&quot;:3000,&quot;effect&quot;:&quot;fade&quot;,&quot;speed&quot;:6000,&quot;autoplay&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;infinite&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image-carousel.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-carousel-wrapper swiper\" role=\"region\" aria-roledescription=\"carousel\" aria-label=\"Image Carousel\" dir=\"ltr\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-carousel swiper-wrapper\" aria-live=\"off\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"1 of 2\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/seahamgrangefarm.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/November-Dene-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1815&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"November dene\" \/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"2 of 2\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/seahamgrangefarm.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/November-Farm-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1815&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"November farm\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-07120cd e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"07120cd\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d081dcf e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"d081dcf\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2558e36 elementor-widget-mobile__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-wp-widget-search\" data-id=\"2558e36\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"wp-widget-search.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<form role=\"search\" method=\"get\" class=\"search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/seahamgrangefarm.com\/site\/\">\n\t\t\t\t<label>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Search for:<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"search\" class=\"search-field\" placeholder=\"Search &hellip;\" value=\"\" name=\"s\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/label>\n\t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" class=\"search-submit\" value=\"Search\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/form>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1ed0234 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1ed0234\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d215fc4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-eael-facebook-feed\" data-id=\"d215fc4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"eael-facebook-feed.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t        <div class=\"eael-facebook-feed eael-col-3 eael-facebook-feed-card\" id=\"eael-facebook-feed-d215fc4\">\n                    <\/div>\n        <div class=\"clearfix\"><\/div>\n        \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Home History Stewardship Apiary Ryhope Dene Renewable Energy Contact Us YouTube Channel Hamburger Toggle Menu Renewable Energy Solar arrays were installed at the farm at the end of 2015 to reduce the farm&#8217;s carbon footprint, reduce running costs and generate surplus energy for the National Grid.
