Haifeng from Metuchen, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2015. The array is 8.58 kW – 33 Hyundai HIS-S260BK 260-watt panels on a QuickMount mounting system – and it was finished in November of 2015. First-year production was estimated at 9,714 kWh. Thirty-three panels for eight and a half kilowatts is what a 260-watt module meant in 2015; the same output today takes about twenty. The array has simply kept working, which is the part that matters.
Why Haifeng chose Green Sun Energy Services

Solar questions from Metuchen homeowners
Who maintains a leased solar system?
The third-party owner generally takes on significant equipment-maintenance responsibility under a lease or power purchase agreement, but the actual obligations come from the contract. Worth checking specifically: inverter failure, panel failure, monitoring, labor, roof removal, animal damage, storm damage and production shortfalls.
How does residential solar work on a Metuchen 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.
Can more solar be installed than the house uses?
New Jersey's net-metering rules generally limit a residential customer's generating capacity by reference to the electricity supplied to that customer over an annualised period. The programme is designed to offset a household's own consumption rather than turn it into a wholesale generator. Documented future loads can sometimes be relevant under the utility's procedures.
