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.

Solar Energy Generators for Energy Independence in San Marcos, TX

Unreliable San Marcos grids and soaring utility costs have many Texans turning to solar energy and generators for backup power for their homes and businesses. Overloaded grids, poor infrastructure, and severe weather can cause blackouts and brownouts that are detrimental to your day-to-day life.

Purchasing a backup generator for your San Marcos home is a great way to increase your independence from your city grid. When combined with a solar energy system and battery storage, a generator can ensure your family and investments can be protected – no matter what the local utilities throw your way.

Backup Generators: How Do They Work in San Marcos, Texas?

Generators function by converting fuel into electricity. A generator can hook up to your home solar panels and battery, keeping your essential electronics and appliances online, even in the event of San Marcos grid failures. It doesn't matter if your home is entirely on the local power grid, uses solar in conjunction with local power, or is entirely off-grid, a backup generator can give you additional peace of mind.

Why Does My Family Need a Solar Home Backup Generator in San Marcos, TX?

Picture this: a powerful winter storm blows through San Marcos, knocking the local grid offline for hours or even days. What would that look like for your life? It could impact the operations at your ranch, knocking out the heat that keeps your livestock or horses safe in your barn. It could result in your deep freezers full of hard-earned game meat spoiling. It could result in losing valuable product at your brewery or vineyard.

Your home or business in San Marcos can be shielded from these situations with a backup generator, allowing for energy independence during grid failures. A generator can be added to your current solar energy system, or we can design a unique microgrid with batteries, generators, and solar panels. When the sun isn't out, or the local electrical grid is down, you can count on your generator to protect your investments, help your family stay comfortable, and power crucial electronics.
