A football club has submitted an application for a solar farm.
If approved, it will be constructed on a 48-hectare (118-acre) site to the east and west of Sunderland AFC's training centre near Cleadon Village, South Tyneside.
The plans include a substation, transformer stations, switch rooms, security fencing, access gates, and biodiversity enhancements, such as improvements to hedgerows.
In a statement, the club said the application was a step towards "becoming one of the first net zero clubs in the United Kingdom".
Documents submitted to South Tyneside Council say planning permission is being sought for a "30-year period from the date of first exportation of energy from the solar farm", after which "the site will be reinstated to agricultural land", according to the Local Democracy Reporting Service.
