Kim from Wyckoff, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since October of 2012, when we fitted a revenue-grade production meter to the solar array on the house and had it working by the middle of November. An Itron Centron digital meter on its own solar breaker measures what the array actually generates, which is what SREC reporting requires and what an inverter estimate cannot provide. Metered generation is what the SREC market pays against, so the meter is what turns an array that produces into an array that reports.
Why Kim 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 Wyckoff homeowners
Should the system cover 100 percent of annual usage?
Often that is an attractive target, but it is not automatically the best design. Roof area, shading, the financing structure, future electricity use, equipment size, utility limits and roof condition all bear on it. A 90 to 95 percent offset on an excellent roof can be a better system than one forced onto shaded surfaces to reach a round number.
Which utility handles interconnection in Wyckoff?
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.
What happens to production in winter?
Panels keep producing, but shorter days normally mean lower monthly output than spring and summer. Cold modules actually operate efficiently; what reduces winter production is day length, sun angle, cloud, snow cover and shading. A properly designed system models production across the whole year rather than a good month.
