We Started Off Grid

FMS was founded after owners Tim & Alana Nelson purchased a rural piece of property in Skagit County in 1996 that had no access to utility power. Wanting to enjoy the beautiful setting but not wanting to live with the noise of a generator like their neighbors, they designed and installed a solar/wind/energy storage power solution where a generator served only as occasional supplemental backup. Over the many years since, we’ve helped countless clients find the best off grid power solution for their unique situation.

The best of both worlds

After 14 years off grid, utility power finally made it to the end of the road and the off grid power system was transitioned to a grid hybrid solar system. The new system incorporates an upgrade to higher wattage Made in Washington Silfab solar panels, an OutBack Radian GS8048A inverter system, RELiON Insight lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, and incorporates the existing Kohler automatic propane generator. The Nelson’s now enjoy the convenience of utility power, but with low power bills and the security of emergency power when grid power fails.
