Generac PWRcell in Selma
The Generac PWRcell is a modular battery system using 3 kWh battery modules (3–6 modules per cabinet) for 9–18 kWh per cabinet. It pairs with the PWRcell inverter and supports whole-home backup. Generac's generator heritage makes it a trusted name for backup power in the Central Valley.
Selma, known as the "Raisin Capital of the World," is a community of about 25,000 residents in south-central Fresno County along Highway 99. Served by ZIP code 93662, Selma's residential neighborhoods include older downtown homes, established mid-century subdivisions, and newer developments on the east side. The flat valley setting provides excellent solar exposure — most Selma roofs have unobstructed south-facing orientation ideal for maximum production. Summer temperatures regularly hit 100–107°F, and PG&E bills for a typical Selma home run $220–$400 during peak cooling months. Solar adoption in Selma has been strong — the community's agricultural roots mean homeowners understand long-term investments, and solar's 25+ year lifespan fits that mindset well.
