Collaborative Solar Initiatives
Primo Brands Announced Solar at Poland Spring facility in Hollis
Colin Smith — April 9, 2026Primo Brands has initiated a large scale onsite solar installation at its Poland Spring facility in Hollis, Maine, in partnership with Onyx Renewables and PowerFlex. The project is designed to supply renewable energy directly to facility operations, reduce carbon emissions, and provide long term visibility into energy costs. This initiative reflects a broader trend in the consumer goods sector, where companies are adopting onsite renewable energy to manage operational risk and respond to regulatory and stakeholder expectations related to sustainability.
The collaboration positions Onyx Renewables and PowerFlex as key contributors to the development and implementation of the solar infrastructure, while Primo Brands integrates the project into its operational and sustainability strategy. The installation may serve as a model for similar efforts at other company sites, offering insights into energy usage, efficiency improvements, and potential community level benefits. As Primo Brands continues to expand its renewable energy initiatives, the partnership highlights how corporate sustainability measures can intersect with long term planning, cost management, and public perception.
