DIF, a global independent investment manager, agreed to acquire a majority stake in Alight, a developer of subsidy-free solar projects in the Nordics, for €150m. "We have been impressed by Alight’s track record as a first mover in the growing Nordic solar market, in addition to their top quality customer-led approach to winning long-term solar contracts. We also share Alight’s vision on how to accelerate the energy transition in Europe and more specifically for their C&I customers, whilst also providing them with energy security at low cost in the current high power price environment.
