It all started in 2007, when Augusta was mulling over how to install a solar photovoltaic system on her home.
Funny thing was, she could not find any contractors that installed solar pv.
So, she said to herself, why don't I do this myself?
Why don't I start a firm that designs and installs solar energy systems?
If I want it, there must be others that want it as well.
Fourth Coast Inc was formed in 2008 by Augusta Withington.
From there, the firm grew to over 20 employees to include design staff and installation crew.

Solar energy is the cleanest and most abundant renewable energy source on earth.
Why not use it.
Advances in technology in generating electricity and heating water have made solar energy effective with few moving parts.
Grid tied solar electric (photovoltaic) systems have two basic components: solar modules and inverters.
There are no moving parts.
Solar modules can be roof or ground mounted depending on shade, land availability, roof orientation and pitch.
The first step in evaluating your site includes an audit of your electric usage and discussions with you on options for mounting.

Back up power is of increasing popularity in recent years.
Power outages have tripled in the last 40 years as a result in our aging distribution network and thinning of utility maintenance crews.
Lack of sump pumps, space heating, and refrigeration during a power outage can result in thousands of dollars of losses, especially if you are away for the season or on vacation.
Incorporating a Generator into your project is often a priority for many homeowners in Northern New York.
Fourth Coast is an authorized Kohler Generator Dealer, offering natural gas, propane, gasoline and diesel powered generators up to 140 kW.
