Samy from Spotswood, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2022. The array was completed in January of 2023: 23 panels making 9.32 kW into a SolarEdge HD Wave inverter with optimizers, and an estimated 12,252 kilowatt hours in the first year. JCP&L interconnected it in February. The existing roof was in good enough condition to take the array as it stood, which is worth stating rather than assuming – a roof with a decade of life left in it is a roof worth putting panels on, and one without is a roof that has to be dealt with first. That judgement is made at the survey rather than on installation day.
Why Samy 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 Spotswood homeowners
Are all mounting systems much the same?
No. They differ substantially in attachment method, waterproofing, rail design, materials, wind rating and installation requirements. Residential systems should use appropriately listed components installed to the manufacturer's instructions, and the residential code requires rooftop mounting and structural systems to satisfy the applicable structural and listing requirements.
Who receives the certificates on a leased system?
That depends on the lease or power purchase agreement. Where solar is third-party owned, the system owner commonly retains the renewable-energy certificates and related incentives because it owns the generating equipment. The contract should say explicitly who owns the environmental attributes.
Are panels designed for the wind near Spotswood?
Yes. The array and its mounting system have to be designed to resist the applicable wind loads, and coastal and exposed locations can carry different wind-design conditions from sheltered inland ones. It is one of the reasons the mounting system and its engineering are chosen for the site rather than by habit.
