Solar Panel Installation in Princeton, NJ | 38 Jinko Panels, 16.34 kW and 324 Feet of Critter Guard

Princeton, NJ · Client since September 2025

Cliff and Louise from Princeton, NJ have been Green Sun Energy Services clients since September of 2025. Thirty-eight Jinko panels went up on Unirac mounting at the end of that December, 16.34 kW in total, with a first-year production estimate of 12,069 kWh. Three hundred and twenty-four feet of critter guard was fitted around the array at the same time. Squirrels and nesting birds get under an unguarded array, chew wiring and pack debris against the roof, and the guard goes on with the panels in a single visit rather than needing the panels lifted again later. Six older 230-watt panels already on the roof were removed and replaced in May of 2026.

Why Cliff and Louise chose Green Sun Energy Services

One company removes the solar, fixes the roof, corrects what is underneath and puts everything back right.

Solar questions from Princeton homeowners

Does solar eliminate the electric bill completely?

Not necessarily. Solar can offset most or all of a year's energy use, and the utility can still bill customer charges, meter charges, non-bypassable charges, taxes and any net electricity purchased. What appears on the bill depends on the utility and the tariff.

Which utility handles interconnection in Princeton?

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.

Can New Jersey change its net-metering rules?

Yes. Energy statutes, Board of Public Utilities regulations and utility tariffs can all change. A proposal should describe the rules as they currently stand rather than guarantee that they will hold for decades.
