As grid fees and other non-commodity charges rise across Europe, leading businesses are taking control of their energy future. Private wire solar paired with battery storage makes it possible to directly power your site with large-scale solar built on land nearby – combining speed, scale, and non-commodity protection.
As your specialised partner, Alight supports you end-to-end from land origination to long-term ownership and operation.
We identify and secure suitable land close to your site, enabling large-scale solar even when your own premises does not have the space.
The solar plant is connected to your site via a direct wire, avoiding the public grid and its associated constraints.
Power is consumed behind the meter, hedging against non-commodity charges and delivering clean electricity straight to your operations.
When using electricity for self-consumption, you don’t just cut your electricity costs, but also taxes and grid fees.
Significantly speed up your timeline by avoiding lengthy grid application processes and alleviating grid connection constraints.
Pairing private wire solar with storage allows you to replace a larger share of grid electricity and reduce reliance on the public grid.
When it comes to private wire solar, experience matters. At Alight, we focus entirely on solar PPAs and storage, with over a decade of expertise in delivering these solutions. Every project is tailored to your business, designed to reduce risk and deliver long-term resilience.
We know large-scale commercial and industrial sites inside out and deliver reliably, even in the most demanding environments. And because we build and own the assets for the long term, you enjoy clean, cost-efficient energy without surprises.
