Local Innovation Meets Sustainable Agriculture in Blanco
Across Blanco and beyond, we’re reshaping farm sustainability through advanced agrivoltaic technology. We install solar above your Blanco crops so every square foot of land can do more. By installing solar panels directly over crops or grazing areas, we help Blanco landowners lower utility costs, improve yields, and strengthen climate resilience.
We bring custom-built energy solutions to Blanco growers who want results — for their land and their business.
Academic Innovation for Agriculture in Blanco, TX
In Blanco, we’re more than solar installers — we’re innovation partners in ag sustainability. As part of UTRGV’s landmark “Agrivoltaics for Climate-Smart Agriculture” effort, we contribute hands-on expertise to support research and innovation. This USDA-funded initiative combines advanced solar solutions with university research to study how agrivoltaics perform across Texas farms.
Fortress Microgrid-installed panels for this pilot are already up and running. They are paired with a Multichannel Automated Chamber System, a technology that continuously measures greenhouse gas emissions, soil moisture levels, and atmospheric conditions. This data is being used to quantify how solar panel shading affects key environmental outcomes like carbon retention, soil health, and water efficiency.
Bringing Agrivoltaics to Life on Your Blanco Land
Every farm is different, which is why Fortress Microgrid takes a custom approach to every project. Your installation may include high-efficiency bifacial solar panels for dual-sided light capture, energy storage systems with advanced inverters, or another system that supports enhanced backup and off-grid performance. We begin with an in-depth evaluation of your Blanco property, then design a tailored solar solution.
With real-time insights, you can manage your energy smarter and more efficiently than ever.
