Konnunsuo is located approximately 14 kilometers east of the city center of Lappeenranta. It is an old lowland peat production area where peat extraction has ceased. To the northwest of the project area, there is the hill of Kukkuroinmäki, at the foot of which lies the treatment center of South Karelia Waste Management Ltd. A bird wetland is planned for the old peat extraction area to the east of the project site. The surrounding environment of the project area is sparsely populated and is bordered by various agricultural and forestry areas.

The solar park will be connected to the national grid at a voltage level of 110 kV. A transmission line, approximately two kilometers long (overhead line), will be constructed from the substation area to the existing network on the Yllikkälä-Vuoksi transmission line, where the conductors will continue along the existing pole structures. No clearing or erecting of new poles is needed for this section. The actual grid connection point is at the Vuoksi substation, owned by Fingrid.
