One of the world's first facilities to convert concrete utility pole manufacture to sustainable specs, materials, process and plant energy operations, Valmont will open the on-site solar array co-located at its Bristol plant to offset an expected 100% of its energy consumption and transition to the environmentally-friendly poles for installment across the country. An immediate impact will be seen in GHG avoidance and circularity for this utility pole product, a part of the cement industry currently responsible for approximately 8% of carbon emissions.
