Greg from Toms River, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2019. The array was completed in November: 39 panels making 13.65 kW into a SolarEdge HD Wave inverter with optimizers, 226 feet of critter guard around the perimeter, and an estimated 15,221 kilowatt hours in the first year. JCP&L interconnected it in December. Seven years on, the critter guard is the part worth mentioning: the gap between panels and roof is where squirrels and birds nest, and the wiring damage they do is invisible from the ground until production quietly drops. The existing roof was sound enough to take the array as it stood.
Why Greg chose Green Sun Energy Services
More than solar panels: a professionally managed energy system, from design and permitting through installation, inspection, activation and ongoing support.
What makes Green Sun Energy Services different
- Solar: design and installation supervised by a NABCEP-certified professional (#PVA-111016-016148), with SolarEdge optimizers on every panel so each one reports its own output. On this home: a 13.65 kW solar array of 39 LG 350N1C-V5 panels, a SolarEdge SE11400H-US000NNC2 HD Wave inverter, the Unirac mounting system and 226 ft of critter guard.
- Warranty: backed by a 25-year solar workmanship warranty.
- Local: locally owned and operated in New Jersey since 2010, NJHIC licensed (#13VH06229000), with 48 completed solar projects across Ocean County and 360 solar projects throughout New Jersey.

Solar questions from Toms River homeowners
How much does shade from mature Toms River trees affect production?
Shade can materially reduce production, particularly when it falls during the highest-production hours. Module-level electronics such as microinverters and optimizers reduce the effect of partial shading, but they cannot create sunlight where there is none. Significant shade should be modelled before any annual production figure is quoted.
Does every solar homeowner receive SREC-II payments?
No. The project has to qualify for and be properly registered in the applicable New Jersey solar incentive programme. Older systems may sit in different programmes altogether, including legacy SREC and transition certificate programmes.
What is rapid shutdown?
A code safety requirement intended to reduce hazardous voltage in controlled areas of a rooftop array during an emergency -- so that firefighters are not working around energised conductors. Modern residential systems achieve it with compliant module-level electronics and listed inverter equipment.
