SolRiver Announces the Start of Construction on its Longleaf Solar Project in Davie County, North Carolina

Published

on

The project marks SolRiver’s 12th project in the Carolinas

ADVANCE, N.C., March 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — SolRiver Capital, a Denver-based renewable energy investment firm, announced the start of onsite construction at its 7 MW Longleaf Solar Project in Davie County, North Carolina. SolRiver acquired the project as a development asset, finished the remaining development work, and brought the project to Notice to Proceed (NTP). The project will be owned and operated as part of the company’s larger Carolinas portfolio.

Riley Sullivan, Executive Vice President at SolRiver Capital, commented, “When we purchased the Longleaf project, it wasn’t quite ready to build yet. Fortunately, we have a good playbook for wrapping up development and getting projects built.”

Once finished, SolRiver will have brought a dozen solar projects online in the Carolinas, totaling approximately 100 MW of generating capacity. Longleaf Solar is expected to become operational in Q2 2025. The company is also building the Williams project, a 6 MW installation expected to come online around the same time as Longleaf.

Brandon Conard, Managing Partner at SolRiver Capital, stated, “We’ve been active in this market since 2019 and are happy to add more assets to the mix in North and South Carolina.”

The project is utilizing safe-harbor panels purchased and delivered in 2023. Eligible for safe harbor, these panels were stored in a North Carolina warehouse and have been deployed on this project as well as several other projects built over the past two years. Panel deliveries were recently completed at the Longleaf site. “This approach helped us stay ahead in a rapidly evolving market.” added Brandon Conard.

Varda Announces Third Mission Launch, the Company’s Second Launch this Year

Varda aims to have a monthly launch and reentry cadence, developing a foundation layer for a thriving orbital economy

EL SEGUNDO, Calif., March 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Varda Space Industries, Inc., a microgravity-enabled life sciences and reentry company, today announced the successful launch of its third orbital processing and reentry capsule, W-3, just 15 days after the reentry of the company’s second mission, which landed in Australia on Feb. 27, 2025.

The W-3 vehicle, supported by a Rocket Lab-developed Pioneer satellite like its predecessors, lifted off aboard the Transporter-13 rideshare mission with SpaceX from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. 

W-3’s payload is an advanced navigation system called an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) developed by the US Air Force and Innovative Scientific Solutions Incorporated (ISSI). This payload will be tested at reentry speeds it was designed to withstand but has never encountered before.

IMUs are electronics that can measure an object’s motion, orientation, and velocity. For example, everything from cars to wearable fitness trackers have similar devices to tell their computer the orientation and location without the aid of an external signal like a GPS, though commercial IMUs are notoriously inaccurate at high-speed conditions. Varda’s capsule can help test these devices for our government and commercial partners to advance research into high-hypersonic technologies.

“The need for robust, plug-and-play IMU technology is a growing capability area that will significantly advance the current state-of-the-art for domain awareness and control of future systems,” said Dr. Steve NeVille, senior scientist at ISSI. “The W-3 reentry flight test with Varda provides an exciting and unique proto-qualification platform to rapidly advance our IMU technology readiness level in a relevant reentry environment, which is the pinnacle of early development testing.”

Varda’s capsule reenters the Earth’s atmosphere at speeds exceeding Mach 25, a unique environment that offers researchers a chance to gather data for multiple applications, expanding the possibilities for the orbital economy and supporting US national security interests in low Earth orbit.

“Varda’s commercial dual-use reentry capability is a game-changer for enabling rapid technology maturation for future systems,” said Technical Lead for AFRL’s Prometheus reentry testbed program, Dr. Erin Vaughan. “Affordable, frequent reentry flight test opportunities support S&T development for early risk reduction studies, reducing cost and schedule for novel technologies.”

The W-3 capsule’s payload is funded through the Prometheus program, an initiative from AFRL in partnership with Varda. The program addresses a national security need to accelerate testing and modernization of high-hypersonic systems and reentry technologies through a low-cost, high-cadence commercial flight testbed.

“High-cadence, routine operations is our goal. We are working to make reentry as commonplace as launch,” said Varda Vice President for Mission Management, Brandi Sippel. “We are looking forward to the day when sending capsules into orbit and back to Earth is seen as routine.”

W-3 will spend a few weeks on orbit before reentering and landing safely at the Koonibba Test Range in South Australia, operated by Southern Launch. Varda’s second capsule, W-2, was Australia’s first-ever commercial land reentry.

Prime Biome Warns Consumers About Unauthorized Sellers and Ensures Commitment to Product Authenticity

Published

on

By

NEW YORK, March 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The official brand behind Prime Biome, a product developed under Bioventra’s portfolio of advanced formulations, has issued a public advisory regarding unauthorized third-party resellers misrepresenting the product online. Reports indicate that unverified vendors online have been listing non-official versions of Prime Biome across various platforms, leading to confusion among consumers.

The official Prime Biome brand has been receiving complaints from individuals who unknowingly made purchases from unverified sources, later realizing discrepancies in packaging, labeling, and ingredient details. This has raised concerns about product authenticity and integrity, as the formulation was developed exclusively under Bioventra’s stringent quality standards.

In response to these growing Prime Biome concerns, the company has issued an official statement emphasizing the importance of ordering from the official verified source only to ensure authenticity and product safety.

Unverified Resellers Causing Widespread Confusion

In recent weeks, multiple consumer reports have highlighted the increasing prevalence of unauthorized sellers listing Prime Biome outside of the brand’s verified distribution channels. This industry has faced similar challenges, with third-party vendors presenting themselves as legitimate sources while listing products that may not reflect official formulations.

The official Prime Biome team has been actively monitoring unauthorized listings and is committed to raising awareness about the potential risks associated with purchasing Prime Biome from unknown third-party vendors.

While some unauthorized sellers may claim to offer genuine Prime Biome, discrepancies in packaging, ingredient details, and overall product presentation have raised concerns. Consumers have reported receiving products that appear different from official branding, while others have struggled with Prime Biome returns and refund processes due to unclear seller policies.

Customer Complaints Highlight Need for Greater Awareness

Consumer reports received by the official Prime Biome brand have included concerns such as:

Product inconsistencies – Customers noted that labeling, logo placement, or product descriptions did not match official representations.Ingredient discrepancies – Since Prime Biome contains a proprietary blend of probiotics and botanical extracts, there have been concerns about whether third-party listings contain the expected formula.Unclear storage conditions – Prime Biome consumers have questioned whether unauthorized sellers store and handle the product correctly, as dietary supplements require specific conditions to maintain quality.Limited customer support – Many individuals who purchased Prime Biome from non-official sources reported that customer service inquiries went unanswered, leaving them unable to seek refunds or verify authenticity.

A spokesperson for the Prime Biome line commented:

“We take product integrity seriously and are committed to ensuring that consumers receive only authentic formulations. Unfortunately, unauthorized sellers sometimes misrepresent products, leading to confusion. We encourage Prime Biome customers to remain vigilant when verifying sources.”

The Rise of Unauthorized Third-Party Sellers

Unauthorized supplement resellers have become a growing issue across various e-commerce platforms, social media marketplaces, and third-party retail websites. Many third-party Prime Biome sellers attempt to capitalize on consumer demand, sometimes offering deep discounts or listing products in ways that do not align with official brand communications.

This trend has led to several industry-wide concerns, including:

Unverified product origins – Some Prime Biome sellers source products through unauthorized means, making it difficult for consumers to determine where and how the product was handled before purchase.Potential product substitutions – Some third-party vendors list a product under the Prime Biome name but ship alternative formulations or lookalike substitutes instead.Misleading discount strategies – Some resellers attempt to lure in customers with extremely low prices, which can indicate unverified stock or repackaged items.

While Prime Biome‘s official brand is actively monitoring unauthorized sales, the company emphasizes that consumers should take proactive steps to avoid misleading listings.

How Consumers Can Identify Official Product Sources

Consumers can take several steps to avoid misleading third-party listings and ensure they are purchasing authentic products. It is important to examine product details carefully, checking for inconsistencies in labeling, packaging, or branding that may indicate a non-official version. Prime Biome Pricing should also be reviewed with caution, as significantly lower prices than usual may suggest an unauthorized seller. Verifying the legitimacy of the seller by researching whether they are recognized as an authorized distributor can help prevent confusion. Lastly, consumers are encouraged to confirm product details through official channels to ensure accuracy and authenticity.

Company Response & Consumer Safety Commitment

The official Prime Biome brand has reaffirmed its commitment to consumer safety, product integrity, and transparency. With the increase in unauthorized sales, the company remains focused on educating customers about product authenticity.

“We are committed to making sure that individuals who seek out Prime Biome receive the correct formulation as originally designed. By raising awareness about misleading third-party listings, we hope to prevent unnecessary confusion and ensure a positive customer experience,” the spokesperson added.

Additionally, the company is actively monitoring third-party sales channels and taking steps to minimize unauthorized Prime Biome product listings that could misrepresent the brand.

Final Advisory for Consumers

With misleading third-party listings continuing to appear across various online marketplaces, consumers are encouraged to be diligent in verifying sources before making a purchase. The official Prime Biome brand has issued this advisory to help prevent further confusion and misinformation.

For updates regarding product authenticity and verification measures, consumers can refer to official sources.
