Alight has acquired a solar-plus-storage project under development in Denmark from GreenGo Energy, marking its first integrated solar and battery energy storage system (BESS) project in the country.
The project, located in Kalundborg on Sjælland, combines a 79 MWp utility-scale solar park with a co-located 55 MW BESS. Spread across approximately 90 hectares, the facility is expected to generate around 95 GWh of electricity annually.
The hybrid configuration allows solar generation and battery storage to operate behind a single grid connection, enabling time-shifting of energy and enhancing the overall value and flexibility of the project’s output.
Alight, a Nordic solar developer and independent power producer, stated that the Kalundborg project stands out among the 7 GW pipeline it has evaluated in Denmark due to its strong return potential, supported by favorable solar irradiation, optimized design, and grid conditions.
The project is currently in an early development phase, with land lease agreements secured and zoning and environmental permitting processes underway. Alight and GreenGo Energy will continue to jointly develop the project until it reaches ready-to-build status, expected by 2028.
The companies plan to structure the project around long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs), under which Alight will own and operate the asset and supply electricity to commercial and industrial customers at fixed prices.
The acquisition forms part of Alight’s broader strategy to expand its renewable energy footprint across the Nordics, alongside projects in Finland and Sweden, as it targets at least 5 GW of installed capacity by 2030.
In Denmark, Alight previously acquired a 215 MWp solar park in Lolland from European Energy in 2025, which has since been commissioned and ranks among the largest solar installations in the Nordic region.
