40-panel 12.6 kW solar array in Ocean, NJ by Green Sun Energy Services.
Mike from Ocean, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2016. He and Deanna signed in late September and the array was producing by the first week of December, 40 LG 315 watt panels on a SolarEdge inverter with HD Wave optimizers on every module. At 12.6 kW it was built to cover a serious share of the household load, with a design estimate near 13,219 kWh in its first year, and it came with revenue-grade ANSI metering so the production is measured rather than guessed. Ocean is in Monmouth County, a mile from the beach.
These guys are amazing!! I love my panels and they look great!
Green Sun Energy Services replied
Thank you, Mike. Forty panels making 12.6 kW on a roof in Ocean is a serious array, and we are glad it looks as good as it performs. Layout is never an afterthought here: setbacks, row alignment and how the array reads from the street are all settled before anything is fastened down.
Why Mike 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 Ocean homeowners
How long does an inverter last?
It depends on the manufacturer, the design, the environment and the generation of equipment, and it should not be assumed that an inverter lasts as long as the modules. Worth comparing: the product warranty, whether labor is covered, how a replacement is handled, monitoring coverage, and whether the installer will still be servicing that equipment.
Does Ocean decide whether the installation is code-compliant?
The municipal construction department reviews and inspects the work under the Uniform Construction Code, but the substantive electrical requirements come from the statewide Electrical Subcode rather than from local preference. Municipalities may also administer zoning requirements where those apply.
What is an interconnection application?
The technical application to the electric distribution company asking permission to connect the array to the grid. The utility may review the system size, the inverter, the one-line diagram, the service configuration, the export capability and the capacity of the circuit it would connect to.
