Rhayan from Toms River, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since February of 2017. He signed at the end of February and the array was producing by the end of April, 38 Hanwha 300 watt panels on a SolarEdge inverter with an optimizer behind each module. At 11.4 kW the system was designed for about 12,152 kWh in its first year. Toms River is in Ocean County, where a 2017 array has now paid for a fair share of itself.

Solar questions from Toms River homeowners
What is hosting capacity, and can it affect a Toms River property?
Hosting capacity is how much distributed generation a part of the grid can take without affecting safety or reliability. A neighborhood with a lot of existing solar can face interconnection limits even where the individual property is ideal for it -- which is why the utility review is not a formality.
Why is annual offset the number that matters?
Because the value of net metering is strongest where solar production offsets electricity the household would otherwise have bought. Producing substantially more than a year's consumption means the surplus is ultimately treated differently from the credit that offsets consumption.
How does an optimizer system differ from microinverters?
An optimizer system puts DC power optimizers at the modules and a single central inverter elsewhere; a microinverter system puts a small inverter at each module. Both can provide module-level monitoring and rapid shutdown when properly designed -- they are different architectures rather than one being the upgrade of the other.
