Ron from Ewing, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since 2012, when we fitted revenue-grade production metering to the solar system on his house. The meter is an Itron Centron digital unit on a dedicated solar breaker, and it exists to record generation precisely rather than approximately, because SREC income depends on the number it reports. Ewing is in Mercer County, west of most of the work we do.

Solar questions from Ewing homeowners
How does residential solar work on a Ewing home?
The panels convert sunlight into direct-current electricity, and an inverter or microinverters convert that into alternating current the house can use. When the array produces more than the house is drawing, the surplus flows out through the utility meter under New Jersey's net-metering rules. When the house needs more than the array is making, the difference comes from the utility.
What is net metering?
It lets an eligible New Jersey solar customer receive kWh credit for eligible excess solar electricity exported to the grid, up to the amount consumed over the applicable annualised period. The utility meter tracks energy delivered to the property and energy received from it.
Should trees be cut down before installing solar?
Only where the production benefit justifies it and doing so is legally and environmentally appropriate. A good installer quantifies what a particular tree costs in production rather than recommending removal as a matter of course. Ownership of the tree, municipal tree ordinances, neighbors' trees and regrowth all come into it.
