Marvin from Toms River, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since July of 2025. The array was completed that August: 12 panels making 5.1 kW, each with its own Enphase IQ8 microinverter carrying a 25-year warranty, and an estimated 6,012 kilowatt hours in the first year against what JCP&L supplies. The array is leased rather than owned, and the lease price is fixed rather than rising each year. That last point is the one worth understanding about a lease: what makes it predictable is not the starting figure but the fact that it does not climb, while the utility rate beside it generally does. The existing roof was sound enough to build on, so the work stayed with the array.
Why Marvin 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 Toms River homeowners
Which direction should the panels face?
South-facing roof planes generally give excellent annual production, but east and west can be very productive too. The design should compare the modelled annual production of each available plane rather than rejecting anything that is not due south.
What happens when the panels make more than the house is using?
The surplus flows out through the meter to the grid and creates a net-metering credit, which can offset electricity drawn from the grid at another point in the billing period or later in the annualised period.
Does a solar installation need permits in Toms River?
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.
