Manufacturing Savings: Pure Country Weavers’ Solar Energy Success Story

We’re excited to share a real-world success story from one of our recent projects! Watch our case study video to see how Pure Country Weavers, one of America’s last great textile mills, is embracing solar energy to slash costs and power their operations sustainably.






Big Results in Year One

In just the first year of operation, this solar installation is expected to save $40,000. Over its lifetime, the system will save $2 million, delivering a 111% return on investment (ROI) in year one and offsetting 56% of energy usage for the next 25 years.


Why Solar is a Game-Changer for Manufacturers

Manufacturing facilities often rely on electricity that travels hundreds of miles through substations and transformers. With on-site solar, businesses can reduce costs, stabilize energy expenses, and gain independence from traditional utilities.


More Than Savings: A Competitive Advantage

Beyond the excellent operational savings and ROI, manufacturers like Pure Country Weavers are seeing another key benefit: stronger relationships with their largest customers. Many of our clients have shared that when they highlight their sustainability commitments, like adopting solar, the feedback from their major customers has been overwhelmingly positive.

This alignment with sustainable manufacturing practices has translated into new business opportunities and sustained production contracts. Customers value partners who share their commitment to reducing environmental impacts—a win-win for everyone involved.


Affordable Solar Solutions

Pure Country Weavers was able to make this dream a reality with funding from the USDA Rural Energy for America Program (REAP) and federal tax credits. Together, these incentives covered 80% of the project cost, making solar a practical, cost-effective solution.


Join the Movement

If you’re curious about whether solar could work for your business, we’d love to help. We evaluate thousands of sites every year and guide manufacturers through the process of adopting clean energy solutions.
