Solairedirect develops, constructs, finances and operates utility-scale photovoltaic solar parks using an integrated engineering and financing model. The company industrializes downstream PV processes—project development, design and EPC, structured financing, legal engineering, operation and maintenance, power sales and grid services. It focuses on municipal-sized parks (5–20 MW), local partnerships and local manufacturing content to reduce costs and optimize performance. Solairedirect has operations in France, India, South Africa, Chile, Thailand, China and the USA and was founded in 2006. The company reports 250 employees and a total 256 MW under operation and construction. Recent tender results and feed-in tariffs around €100/MWh have driven its competitiveness versus other energy sources.
