Chai Zhu from Lawrence Township, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2025. The array was completed on 12 November: 17 panels making 7.31 kW, each with its own Enphase IQ8PLUS microinverter, and an estimated 7,960 kilowatt hours in the first year. PSEG interconnected it three weeks later. Seventeen panels producing over seven kilowatts works out to 430 watts each, and a structural design was carried out as part of the permit process – the roof was shown to carry the array rather than assumed to. The existing roof was sound enough to take the panels as it stood.
Why Chai Zhu 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.

Solar questions from Lawrence Township homeowners
Does the system work at night?
No. Conventional panels produce nothing without sunlight, and a grid-connected home simply draws from the utility after dark. A battery can store solar energy for use in the evening, but a battery is not required for a standard net-metered installation.
Does a solar installation need permits in Lawrence Township?
Yes. A permanently installed photovoltaic system normally requires construction permits under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code. A residential project commonly involves electrical review, building and structural review, fire-access considerations and municipal inspections.
What is Permission to Operate?
It is the utility's authorisation for the finished system to run in parallel with the grid. Completing the installation does not by itself mean the system can be switched on: the utility generally requires the interconnection documentation, the inspections, the metering and the final approvals to be in place first.
