Stefan from Bridgewater, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2025 for this second phase, having had the first array installed two years earlier. Twelve more panels making 5.28 kW went on in November, with Enphase IQ8 microinverters and 148 feet of critter guard, adding an estimated 3,927 kilowatt hours a year to what the house already produced. JCP&L interconnected the addition in February. Coming back to expand an array is the clearest evidence a system has done what it promised – nobody adds to something that disappointed them – and the microinverter design is what makes it straightforward: each new panel brings its own inverter rather than requiring the original one to be resized.
Why Stefan 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 Bridgewater homeowners
What is hosting capacity, and can it affect a Bridgewater 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.
Does solar eliminate the electric bill completely?
Not necessarily. Solar can offset most or all of a year's energy use, and the utility can still bill customer charges, meter charges, non-bypassable charges, taxes and any net electricity purchased. What appears on the bill depends on the utility and the tariff.
What does the inverter do?
It converts the direct current the panels produce into alternating current the house and the grid can use. Residential systems generally use either a central inverter, with optimizers at the modules where applicable, or a microinverter at each module.
