Solar Critter Guard and Solar Panel Installation in Aberdeen, NJ by Green Sun Energy Services.
Don from Aberdeen, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2018. The contract was signed in mid-August and the array was producing five weeks later in September, about as quick as permitting allows. It is 42 Mission Solar 300-watt panels on a SolarEdge inverter, 12.6 kW rated and designed for about 11,863 kilowatt-hours a year. Mission Solar builds in Texas, which mattered to some buyers then and matters to more of them now. The array went up with 180 feet of critter guard around it, closing the sheltered gap beneath the panels — on a 42-panel roof that is a long perimeter, and every foot of it is somewhere a bird would happily nest. Aberdeen is in Monmouth County.

Green Sun Energy Services replied
Thank you, Don. Forty-two panels making 12.6 kW on a roof in Aberdeen is a substantial array, and watching what the house draws from the utility fall away is the part people enjoy most. On time and beyond expectations is a good pair of words to earn. Thank you for choosing us for it.
Solar questions from Aberdeen homeowners
How is the number of panels for a Aberdeen house decided?
It starts with the home's actual electricity use, then with how much usable roof or ground area there is. A proper design looks at twelve months of consumption, expected future use, roof orientation, shading, roof dimensions, code-required setbacks, module wattage and the limits the utility places on interconnection.
What is panel efficiency?
How effectively a module turns the sunlight striking its surface into electrical power. Higher efficiency fits more generating capacity into a limited area, which matters most on houses where the usable roof is the constraint rather than the budget.
Does solar equipment have to be listed?
Yes. Modules, inverters and mounting systems are each subject to product-listing requirements under the applicable standards, and the equipment has to be installed according to that listing and its instructions rather than to general practice.
