Harvest Green Developments have just completed an incredible renewable energy project for Texfelt’s Bradford facility, which excels them on their eco-friendly mission. By maximising the entire rooftop with high-quality solar panels, Texfelt can now enjoy the benefits of lower energy bills and cleaner electricity. The latest module-level optimisation technology from SolarEdge has been used to construct the renewable energy project, which allows us to remotely monitor the performance of the solar generation, as part of our extended role as Texfelt’s Operation and Maintenance provider.
Texfelt, a manufacturer of SpringBond Eco-friendly Underlay, Upholstery and Mattress Fillings, has achieved a huge milestone by taking control of their energy consumption through this new renewable system. Along with increased self-sufficiency and energy savings, the system has brilliantly complemented their modern recycling process within the facility.
Key Facts:
To date, the system has offset 104,678kg of carbon and this is the equivalent of planting 6333.89 trees (as of 22.05.23).

Client Feedback
”Harvest Green Developments have completed two significant solar installations at our manufacturing site with a combined capacity in excess of 500kwp. Their knowledge and expertise in this field, combined with specifying the highest quality componentry made the buying and specifying phase, installation and grid connection a seamless journey. After two years of use, the installation is performing to the forecast predictions laid out in the original feasibility study.
