Taylors of Harrogate

Harrogate, North Yorkshire

OVERVIEW

Yorkshire Tea were using substantial electricity to keep up with the production needs of their popular products. To put it into perspective, they required enough electricity to produce 22 million teabags daily. As a result, energy expenses were a significant part of their operational costs.

SOLUTION

Our expert team installed 846 panels across their large production facilities based in Harrogate. With such a large-scale project our in-house teams needed to communicate effectively to ensure the project ran smoothly, and morale was kept high with a supply of Yorkshire Tea on each break.

KEY STATS

  • PV system size: 241kW
  • Number of panels: 846
  • Annual kWh generation: 197,470kWh
  • Annual CO2 reduction: 49.3 tonnes
