Ming from Edison, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since April of 2021. The contract was signed in the middle of April and the array was producing by the eighteenth of May — four weeks from signature to switch-on, among the fastest turnarounds in our records. It is 23 LG 370-watt panels on a SolarEdge inverter, 8.51 kW rated and estimated at 8,733 kilowatt-hours a year. The panels went up with 172 feet of critter guard around them, closing the sheltered gap underneath at install rather than after something has nested in it. Edison is in Middlesex County.
Why Ming 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 Edison homeowners
Is there still an electric bill with solar?
Yes. The utility continues to provide the meter, the grid connection and the billing account, so even a house producing roughly as much as it consumes over a year can still see customer charges and other applicable charges.
How does residential solar work on a Edison 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.
How does an optimizer system differ from microinverters?
An optimizer system puts DC power optimizers at the modules and a single central inverter elsewhere; a microinverter system puts a small inverter at each module. Both can provide module-level monitoring and rapid shutdown when properly designed -- they are different architectures rather than one being the upgrade of the other.
