Alight’s Eurajoki Solar Park
101 MWp | Eurajoki, Finland
Alight’s Eurajoki Solar Park is one of the largest solar parks currently in operation in Finland. Inaugurated in September 2026, the solar park has a capacity of 101 MWp and is expected to generate approximately 100 GWh of renewable electricity annually. Despro supported Alight, a leading Nordic solar developer and independent power producer, throughout the different phases of the Eurajoki Solar Park project, from technical support during project development to Owner’s Engineering services and grid connection support.
"The Despro team has been a valuable partner throughout the project. Their technical expertise, flexibility and collaborative approach helped us move the project forward across multiple phases. What stood out was their ability to support us from development activities all the way through construction, providing continuity and practical solutions whenever needed."
Philip Millar, Senior Technical Project Manager | Alight
Technical support throughout the project lifecycle
During the early stages of the project, Despro supported Alight with project development activities, permitting processes and technical advisory services. As the project progressed, Despro’s experts also provided procurement support and technical expertise for key project decisions.
During the construction phase, Despro’s role expanded to Owner’s Engineering services. Our experts supported Alight particularly in matters related to grid connection and critical electrical infrastructure and worked in Grid Manager and technical advisory roles.
The work included technical monitoring and coordination related to the delivery of the substation and medium-voltage cable network. The objective was to support technical quality and coordination across the project’s key interfaces
Continuity in the technical management of a large-scale project
Large-scale energy investments involve numerous technical systems, schedules and project interfaces, where individual decisions can affect subsequent phases of the project.
Despro’s long-term involvement meant that the same technical partner had an understanding of the project’s background, objectives and key technical interfaces before the construction phase began.
This continuity supported efficient decision-making and consistent technical oversight throughout the project. It also enabled specialist expertise to be brought into the project quickly when additional technical support or practical solutions were required.
Local specialist expertise when needed
During construction, Despro was also able to strengthen the project team with local expertise in substations and site supervision.
The availability of specialists located close to the project enabled site visits and technical supervision to be arranged flexibly according to the project’s needs.
This supported Alight’s project organisation particularly during work phases where close technical follow-up and quality assurance were important.
Long-term partnership supporting project delivery
A key strength of the collaboration was Despro’s ability to support Alight across several project phases and in different technical roles instead of focusing on a single isolated assignment.
Through the collaboration, Alight gained:
- continuity from development through construction
- technical expertise to support key project decisions
- Owner’s Engineering and Grid Manager expertise
- expertise in grid connection, substations and medium-voltage networks
- flexible access to specialist expertise according to project needs.
This helped retain technical knowledge and project understanding as the project progressed from one phase to the next
