Our projects
-
Behind-the-meter
Our behind-the-meter solar projects help our customers generate clean electricity by using space on rooftops, parking lots, or land near the customer site.
Learn more about onsite solar here -
Grid-connected
Our grid-connected solar projects let our customers contract a key part of their electricity needs at a fixed rate over a long period by adding new green electricity to the grid. Read more about offsite solar here
-
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)
Our BESS projects contribute to balancing the national electricity grid through frequency regulation, ancillary services, and the optimization of solar energy production when needed by the grid owners and operators. Explore our BESS case study here

Why Alight?
-
At Alight, you’ll make a real, tangible impact on a global scale by accelerating the transition to a fossil fuel-free world. Your work will be more than a job; it will be a meaningful contribution to ensuring the sustainability of our planet.
-
We’re proud to have a flat and autonomous organizational culture where everyone takes accountability for their own work. You'll have the flexibility to work remotely from anywhere in Europe, or you can decide to work hybrid/fully onsite at one of our offices in Stockholm, Madrid, Gothenburg, Paris or Malmö. We’ll support your home office setup, including subsidies for equipment like adjustable desks and office chairs.
-
To ensure we attract the best talent out there, we don't limit ourselves to a specific location. Alighters are based across Europe and our diverse backgrounds and skills complement each other well.
We know that having a diverse team drives better collective decisions and superior business performance. Today our gender split is 44/56, with 15 nationalities and employees in 6 countries.
-
At Alight, you’ll be a part of an entrepreneurial culture in which you’re encouraged to “think like an owner,” which means that we trust you to call the shots and excel in your role. Many Alighters are also shareholders, and we believe in giving our employees incentives to create the best possible impact.
Historically we’ve regularly had warrant/option programs that give our employees the option to own a part of Alight. We also give our employees the option to buy shares when the opportunity arises (e.g. when any of our owners sells shares, we're not a listed company).
-
As an Alighter, you’ll have 30 days of paid vacation and the option to exchange public holiday days for other days off. We also offer market-leading insurance programs for all our employees, together with an annual wellness allowance of €500 (5000 SEK).
At our HQ in Stockholm, we also have weekly activities like lunch runs and Thursday yoga sessions.
-
While we take our role in driving the green transition seriously, we know how to have fun. We believe that a positive team spirit enhances our collective impact. Some examples of planned activities are Friday breakfast every second week, Guest lecturers with dinner, team dinners, and sports activities. But there are also a lot of spontaneous activities driven by our employees!
Each quarter we also have "Alight Next," our company-wide meetup, a two-day strategy day with workshops, lectures, and team building in which we focus on the next quarter. We also always have some fun activities planned during those meetup days, examples being ski trips, sailing, dinners, and parties
-
We’re committed to helping you grow and embrace new areas of responsibility, whether vertically or horizontally.
It’s common for our team members to be promoted to leadership roles or transition into entirely new domains. We have structured career coaching, internal training programs, performance reviews, and goal-setting frameworks to help you develop your career.
Other benefits
We offer competitive benefits for all our employees. However, due to local regulations and practices, some of the benefits we offer are country-specific.

Note that we also offer additional benefits for employees located in other countries. Speak to your recruiter if you’re curious about what we can offer you!
Our way of working
We're a remote-first company that works across main offices, smaller hubs, and fully remote locations. Roughly 40% of our employees work mainly remote and our day-to-day work is tailored to provide a great remote experience.
Of course, being remote-first doesn’t mean we don't prioritize meeting in person. We have office hubs and co-working spaces for employees who live close to each other and want to meet up.
We have two main offices: our HQ in Stockholm and our office in Madrid. Most of our office-based employees come into the office as much as they can, but we can offer fully remote setups for employees working from these locations as well.
