That need is driving new partnerships focused on resilient, rapidly deployable power. Sesame Solar’s partnership with Curtis Stout, a long-established provider of power generation, electrical infrastructure, and energy resilience solutions, helps bring Mobile Nanogrids to more organizations that need dependable off-grid power without the burden of diesel fuel logistics.
Founded in 1947, Curtis Stout is a family-owned business that began in Arkansas and has grown into a trusted partner in electrical infrastructure, serving customers across 19 states. With decades of experience supporting commercial, industrial, utility, government, and defense customers, Curtis Stout is well-positioned to introduce Sesame Solar’s Mobile Nanogrids to organizations looking for cleaner, faster, and more resilient power solutions.
About Curtis Stout?
Curtis Stout is a family-owned company with deep roots in the electrical industry. Founded by Curtis H. Stout in 1947, the company originally served the Arkansas market before expanding across the mid-South. Now, over 75 years later, Curtis Stout is trusted nationwide and has expanded its solution network to include advanced microgrids, resilient mobile power, and cybersecure energy systems.
Curtis Stout’s customers understand the importance of electrical reliability, operational continuity, and resilient infrastructure. This, coupled with the team’s deep expertise in electrical solutions makes the company a natural fit for Sesame Solar’s reseller network. By teaming up with Sesame Solar,Curtis Stout customers will have access to a reliable,mobile, off-gird energy solution - no fuel supply chain needed.
Why Curtis Stout Is a Strong Fit for Sesame Solar
Many organizations still rely on diesel generators as their default backup power solution. While diesel has long been used in emergency and remote power applications, it comes with real operational challenges. Fuel must be delivered, stored, protected, and continuously replenished. During disasters, military operations, or remote deployments, that fuel chain can become a point of vulnerability.
Sesame Solar’s Mobile Nanogrids are designed to solve that problem.
Each Mobile Nanogrid combines solar power, battery storage, and backup hydrogen power from onboard hydrogen generation and low-pressure, solid-state hydrogen storage. The result is a rapidly deployable, off-grid power system that can operate on-site without depending on a continuous fossil fuel supply chain. A single operator can deploy a Sesame Solar Nanogrid in under 15 minutes, making it useful for disaster-response staging areas, forward-operating bases, remote communications infrastructure, community-resilience applications, and other mission-critical environments.
Curtis Stout brings the customer relationships, technical expertise, and regional reach needed to help more organizations understand where this technology fits into their operations.
How Sesame Solar and Curtis Stout Work Together
The partnership is built around a shared goal: helping customers improve energy resilience with practical, deployable solutions suited for demanding environments.
Together, the two companies can help customers evaluate where Mobile Nanogrids make sense, including:
- Disaster response and emergency management operations that need immediate power after storms, wildfires, floods, or grid outages.
- Defense and military customers who need to reduce fuel dependency in remote, contested, or austere environments.
- Utilities and infrastructure operators that need resilient mobile power for field operations, emergency restoration, and critical services.
- Commercial and industrial sites that need backup power without relying entirely on diesel generators.
- Remote communications and telecom infrastructure where grid access is limited or power reliability is essential.
- Community resilience projects where local governments, emergency managers, and public agencies need clean, deployable power that can support residents during disruptions.
This is where the reseller relationship becomes valuable. Curtis Stout already understands the customers, the environments, and the infrastructure challenges. Sesame Solar brings a new resilient power option that helps meet those needs in a cleaner, faster, and more flexible way.
What Customers Gain from the Partnership
Curtis Stout customers are asking for solutions that go beyond traditional backup power. They need systems that are fast to deploy, durable in demanding environments, and less dependent on fuel logistics. Sesame Solar’s Mobile Nanogrids directly address that need.
Energy resilience is no longer optional. For communities facing extreme weather, remote operations that cannot wait for grid restoration, and defense customers operating in contested environments, dependence on fossil fuel supply chains creates real vulnerability.
That is the gap that Sesame Solar and Curtis Stout are working together to fill.
Looking Ahead
Curtis Stout and Sesame Solar share a common belief: when power is mission-critical, customers need solutions that are ready before the grid fails, before the next storm hits, and before fuel logistics become the weak link.
As energy resilience becomes more urgent across sectors, partnerships like this will help make mobile, renewable, off-grid power a more practical option for real-world operations.
