We’re one of the only agrivoltaic providers in Texas helping Garland farms meet energy and profit goals with custom microgrids.
Science-Driven Solar for Smarter Farming in Garland
We’re part of a movement to shape farming’s future — and Garland is part of that change. Fortress Microgrid is a proud collaborator in the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley’s “Agrivoltaics for Climate-Smart Agriculture” initiative. This USDA-funded initiative combines advanced solar solutions with university research to study how agrivoltaics perform across Texas farms.
The project’s solar arrays are now live, thanks to installation by Fortress Microgrid. They are paired with a Multichannel Automated Chamber System, a technology that continuously measures greenhouse gas emissions, soil moisture levels, and atmospheric conditions. Researchers use this information to study the impact of solar panels on Texas land and climate metrics.
