Ryan from Tinton Falls, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since March of 2015. Thirty-two LG 300-watt panels went up that June and the array was interconnected in July, 9.6 kW estimated at 10,379 kWh in the first year. It is split across two roof planes, 7.2 kW on the larger and 2.4 kW on the smaller, on QuickMount rails. That split is the case microinverters suit: each panel converts on its own, so the two orientations can peak at different times of day without either holding the other back.
"Everything they said was true and accurate. I generated almost a 1000 kWh more than my estimate [in the first year]. The entire year cost me 26 dollars for electric. With the SRECs and the electric savings I should recoup my investment in 4 years."
Green Sun Energy Services replied
Thank you, Ryan. Production modeling is a promise, and the only honest way to make one is to be conservative about it. The 32 LG panels at your home in Tinton Falls sit across two roof planes, which is a harder array to model than a single slope, so beating the first-year estimate is a good result. Glad the figures have held up.

Solar questions from Tinton Falls homeowners
What is hosting capacity, and can it affect a Tinton Falls property?
Hosting capacity is how much distributed generation a part of the grid can take without affecting safety or reliability. A neighborhood with a lot of existing solar can face interconnection limits even where the individual property is ideal for it -- which is why the utility review is not a formality.
What does NEC Article 705 cover?
It governs electrical systems where power-production equipment such as solar runs in parallel with another source, normally the utility grid. It is what decides how the array is allowed to connect to the home's service or distribution equipment.
Are certificate payments guaranteed regardless of production?
No. Certificates depend on eligible measured or programme-recognized production, so a system that produces less creates fewer of them. The value attached to each one may be fixed; the number of them is not.
