Construction started for 100 MW Hultsfred solar farm in Småland

Neoen and Alight have started building the 100 MW Hultsfred solar farm in Småland, Sweden.

Bouygues Energies & Services and Solkompaniet have been entrusted with the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract for the Nordic project. This initiative involves the installation of low-carbon PV panels encircling the Hultsfred airport runway, linking to the utility provider E.ON. The developers have set the goal of making the project operational by 2025. Under a long-term power purchase agreement, 95% of the energy generated will be sold to H&M Group, thereby aiding the retailer in achieving its renewable energy objectives.
