Today’s renewable energy news includes announcements from Alight, Onde, Kimallo–Aguirre Transmission Line, and others.
Alight Acquires 23-MWp Solar Project in Sweden
Alight has acquired a 23-MWp solar photovoltaic project in Sweden, strengthening its growing portfolio in the Nordic renewable energy market. The project is expected to supply clean, locally generated electricity and contribute to Sweden’s ambition to expand solar capacity alongside wind and hydro.vThe acquisition reflects continued investment appetite for utility-scale solar in Northern Europe, driven by corporate demand, power price volatility, and supportive policy frameworks. For customers, the project will deliver long-term access to renewable power, supporting decarbonization goals and energy cost stability. The solar asset also enhances grid diversification and energy security. The deal aligns with Alight’s strategy to scale solar PV development and ownership across Europe, reinforcing its role in accelerating the region’s clean energy transition.
Chile Begins Construction of 3,000-MW Kimallo–Aguirre Transmission Line
Chile has started construction of the 3,000-MW Kimallo–Aguirre power transmission line, a major infrastructure project aimed at strengthening the country’s national electricity grid. The line will improve the transfer of renewable energy from generation-rich regions to demand centres, easing congestion and reducing curtailment of solar and wind power. The project represents a significant public and private investment in grid expansion, essential to support Chile’s rapid growth in renewable capacity. For consumers and industry, the new line will enhance energy security, system reliability, and price stability. By enabling greater integration of clean power, the Kimallo–Aguirre line supports Chile’s decarbonization targets and reinforces the critical role of transmission infrastructure in unlocking the full value of large-scale renewable energy development.
Onde Starts Construction of 120 MW of Solar Projects in Poland
Onde has begun building 120 MW of solar photovoltaic capacity in Poland, marking a significant step in expanding the country’s renewable energy pipeline. The projects form part of Onde’s growing portfolio and will contribute new clean electricity to the Polish grid as solar deployment accelerates nationwide. The construction start reflects rising investment momentum in Poland’s solar sector, driven by supportive policies, corporate demand, and the need to diversify away from fossil fuels. For customers and communities, the projects will deliver low-carbon power, improved energy security, and long-term price stability. The build-out also supports local jobs and supply chains during construction. The development aligns with Poland’s broader energy transition goals, reinforcing solar PV’s role in reducing emissions and strengthening the resilience of the power system.
