Our system cost over $60k and we were concerned with how we would pay for this. Additionally, we were informed of several tax credits, system credits and loans. With all this information and the unknown if these credits were "credible", it made for a somewhat overwhelming decision. However, after just 7 months we have been greatly pleased with the performance of the solar panels and the professionalism of the employees of NJ Solar. As far as paying for the system, it has basically been paying for itself. Between the federal tax credits and the SREC credits produced, we have been paying less than $20 - in total - per month for electricity and the entire solar system. I should further state that this includes a pool, central air, and 4 people (myself included) living in our house. I just received our July electric bill and it is a whopping - $5.03. <br /><br /> Another issue that we had was that we were unable to have the panels installed on the roof of our house as the rear of our house faces slightly northeast and a southernly facing system is most efficient. So we opted for a ground mounted system. Being that we live in Mullica Hill, this now required a variance through the township. With the assistance of Mike and Bill, the process of obtaining the variance was very smooth and required very little work on my part. <br /><br /> Through my experience with NJ solar, specifically Mike, Bill and the installers, everyone was very professional and helpful. I would strongly recommend NJ Solar to anyone who is considering or has even thought about solar. Additionally, 2 neighbors in my development have now also used NJ Solar.
