Solar Panel Installation in Aberdeen, NJ by Green Sun Energy Services.
Leonid from Aberdeen, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since October of 2015. The array was completed that December: 28 panels making 8.54 kW, each with its own Enphase microinverter, and an estimated 11,304 kilowatt hours in the first year. JCP&L interconnected it in January. Eleven years is long enough for the design decision to have been tested rather than argued: with a microinverter under every panel, a shaded or failing module affects only itself, and the array has degraded one panel at a time rather than as a single system. The roof was stripped and replaced before the panels went on, so the surface beneath them is as old as the array itself.

"Green Sun Energy Services did an excellent job with my install. I was impressed by a well organized process that they went through as well as all of their post installation service & support." - Lenny from Aberdeen, NJ. Solar Review on Google
Green Sun Energy Services replied
Thank you, Lenny. Twenty-eight panels have been producing on your roof in Aberdeen since 2015, and post-installation support is the half of solar nobody sees at the point of sale. An organized process up front is what makes that half easy afterwards. Thank you for the review.
Solar questions from Aberdeen homeowners
Which utility handles interconnection in Aberdeen?
The electric distribution company that serves the property. In New Jersey that is Jersey Central Power & Light, PSE&G, Atlantic City Electric or Rockland Electric depending on the address, and municipal electric systems can have their own requirements.
Can future electricity use be counted when sizing the array?
Potentially, particularly where the household expects documented new loads such as an EV, a heat pump or another electrification project. The utility's interconnection requirements decide what documentation and load assumptions are acceptable, so an installer should not simply oversize the system and hope for approval.
Do unused credits carry from month to month?
Yes. Eligible excess kWh credits generally carry through the customer's annualised net-metering period, which is what allows strong spring and summer production to offset consumption in the darker months.
