Solairedirect is an international enterprise in the renewable energy sector with a focus on solar power, headquartered in Paris. It stands as the foremost solar energy producer within France and maintains operations across the United States, Chile, India, and South Africa. The firm is involved in the development, construction, ownership, and operation of solar power plants. In July 2015, following the cancellation of its earlier announced IPO, Solairedirect was acquired by Engie.
The company's primary activities encompass the end-to-end development and commissioning of solar park projects. This includes acquiring land, procuring solar panels and related equipment, executing civil engineering works, establishing grid connections, and overseeing park management—often on behalf of third-party investors. In March 2015, with guidance from Conquest Advisory, Solairedirect divested two solar parks located in Southwest France. Subsequently, the company obtained authorization to develop 48 MW capacity in Chile after purchasing 72 MW and secured a 54 MW project through a competitive bid in Punjab, India.
