Daniel from Hillsborough, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2016. He and Christine signed in the middle of September and the array was producing by the first of November, seven weeks, 30 LG 315 watt panels on a SolarEdge inverter with optimizers and revenue-grade ANSI metering. At 9.45 kW it was designed for about 10,903 kWh a year. Hillsborough is in Somerset County.

Solar questions from Hillsborough homeowners
Does solar add value to a home?
Owned solar can contribute value, though the effect depends on the property, the market, the age of the system, the electricity it displaces and how it is owned. An owned system is generally an asset associated with the property; a leased one is governed by a continuing contract, and the two should not be treated as the same thing.
How much does shade from mature Hillsborough trees affect production?
Shade can materially reduce production, particularly when it falls during the highest-production hours. Module-level electronics such as microinverters and optimizers reduce the effect of partial shading, but they cannot create sunlight where there is none. Significant shade should be modelled before any annual production figure is quoted.
Which electrical code applies to a solar installation?
New Jersey currently adopts the 2023 National Electrical Code. The articles that matter for solar are 690 for photovoltaic systems, 705 for sources interconnected with the grid, 706 where there is battery storage, and 750 for energy management systems where applicable.
