Growing Crops and Power — The Future of Farming in Rockwall
At Fortress Microgrid, we’re leading the way in transforming how Texas farms manage energy, water, and soil health. In Rockwall, we make it possible to grow crops and harvest energy from the same acres. Solar panels mounted above farmland in Rockwall can help reduce costs and protect yields.
We’re one of the only agrivoltaic providers in Texas helping Rockwall farms meet energy and profit goals with custom microgrids.
Science-Driven Solar for Smarter Farming in Rockwall
In Rockwall, we’re more than solar installers — we’re innovation partners in ag sustainability. We are an active partner in the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley’s (UTRGV) landmark initiative: the “Agrivoltaics for Climate-Smart Agriculture” project. 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. With advanced monitoring equipment, we’re gathering crucial environmental data from the pilot site. Researchers use this information to study the impact of solar panels on Texas land and climate metrics.
Installing Agrivoltaic Systems in Rockwall, TX
Each installation begins with understanding the land, then building a system to match. 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. When you choose us for agrivoltaic system installation in Rockwall, we start with a site assessment and design a system that meets your agricultural and energy needs.
With real-time insights, you can manage your energy smarter and more efficiently than ever.
