Dan from Lincroft, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since April of 2014. He and Alexis signed in late April and the array was producing by the first week of July. At 4.5 kW it is one of the smaller systems we have built, designed for about 5,482 kWh a year, and that is the point: a system should be sized to the roof and the electric bill rather than to whatever will physically fit. Lincroft is in Monmouth County.

Solar questions from Lincroft homeowners
Which utility handles interconnection in Lincroft?
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.
Do solar panels produce anything on a cloudy day?
Yes, though normally less than under strong direct sun. Modules convert both direct and diffuse light. It is the reason a solar proposal should be judged on annual production rather than on any promise about what happens on a given day.
Who receives the certificates on a purchased system?
A homeowner who owns a qualifying registered system can generally own the associated certificate rights, unless those rights have been assigned or sold under another agreement. The purchase contract and the programme registration documents should make that unambiguous.
