John from Asbury Park, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since October of 2019. He signed in the middle of October and the array was producing two days before Christmas, nine weeks, 13 LG 335 watt panels on a SolarEdge inverter. At 4.355 kW it is one of the smaller systems we have built, designed for about 5,643 kWh a year and sized to the roof it sits on. Asbury Park is in Monmouth County.

Solar questions from Asbury Park homeowners
How is the number of panels for a Asbury Park 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 makes a good solar panel?
For most homeowners it is a high-quality residential module with strong efficiency, a low degradation rate, and product and performance warranties, that fits the roof geometry available. Efficiency, wattage, temperature coefficient, mechanical-load rating, hail testing and the manufacturer's financial stability are all worth comparing.
Does every solar homeowner receive SREC-II payments?
No. The project has to qualify for and be properly registered in the applicable New Jersey solar incentive programme. Older systems may sit in different programmes altogether, including legacy SREC and transition certificate programmes.
