Customer Testimonial

Finding a company to create a solar solution for your home or business can be quite a challenge. I know because I went through five companies – all calling themselves “experts” – and they were not. One of the hallmarks of an expert in a technical field like solar energy is integrity. As an engineer with 50 years of experience in creating technical solutions, I am good at getting to the bottom line for an engineered solution.

I am writing to hopefully save you time and energy in making your solar decision – you want to work with this team. Their professionalism, from initial contact to an engineered design and, finally, attention to detail in the installation, was amazing. I highly recommend Fortress Microgrid. If you want to make your solar experience the best it can be, get in touch with this company.

Why Invest in Solar Power Systems in 76132?

Texas reported 264 blackouts from 2000 to 2023, making it the state with the most power outages. Most of these outages were weather-related. Weather events ranging from winter freezes and summer hurricanes to thunderstorms and gusty winds can leave your home or business without power for days and weeks at a time. Such power outages in Fort Worth, Texas can put your safety and investments at risk.

A custom solar microgrid from Fortress Microgrid can give you the energy independence needed to keep your Fort Worth business or home powered. When — not if — the Texas grid fails again, you won't need to worry about essential medical equipment shutting off or missing profit from wasted products. A microgrid features solar panels, energy storage, and generators, so you can have peace of mind that your energy autonomy will keep your electricity flowing.

Along with energy independence, you can enjoy utility savings with solar. Generating and storing your own electricity means you can greatly decrease how much electricity you use from the grid. You’ll see a decrease in your Fort Worth power expenses.

Peak load shaving is another way your solar microgrid can help you save on energy costs in Fort Worth. The term peak load describes the time of day when the grid experiences the highest electricity usage. If you use grid electricity during this time, you are charged more for it. Peak load shaving empowers you to use solar energy to balance or minimize your grid energy use during hours of peak demand. Not only can peak load shaving reduce your utility costs, but it also contributes to grid stability by lowering grid strain during high-demand times.

Fort Worth, TX Solar-Powered Microgrids vs. Standard Solar Systems

A run-of-the-mill solar solution might supply solar energy in 76132 to keep your home powered and reduce energy bills, but it won't do anything about power outages. Most standard solar panel systems only have panels with no place to store the energy collected (a battery), so they still depend on the energy grid to power your home or business. When a fallen tree takes out a power line or a severe storm causes a blackout, the panels won't keep the grid's failure from causing power failure in your home.

A solar microgrid features solar panels, a battery for energy storage, and a backup power generator so you don't have to depend on the Fort Worth grid. Microgrids can connect to the Texas grid, but they can also run off it, which standard solar panels are unable to do. Your microgrid can collect, store, and generate electricity, allowing you to stay self-sufficient during a utility grid outage.
