Alight’s CEO Harald Överholm was interviewed for an article in Bloomberg News about the current surge in demand for industrial rooftop solar in Europe, and how our pipeline of sales has boomed to nearly 500 MW.

The report states that “building some solar power generation is a relatively quick fix for soaring power bills, with installations taking less than a year. That means new panels could help reduce Europe’s most energy-intensive businesses from natural gas prices that have roughly tripled in the last three weeks”.

Solar arrays at European businesses are set to jump by about 15% this year compared to 2021, according to data from BloombergNEF.
