Bridgewater, New Jersey
Like many homeowners in Bridgewater, New Jersey, this family was looking to take control of their electricity costs. With PSE&G rates averaging $0.26/kWh, the numbers made sense — especially with New Jersey’s available state and utility incentive programs.
In New Jersey, solar homeowners can benefit from programs like ADI ($85.90/MWh, 15 years) and Net metering. Sales tax exempt. Property tax exempt (100%).
Important: The federal residential solar tax credit (Section 25D) expired on December 31, 2025. All savings calculations for this project reflect $0 federal tax credit for homeowner-purchased systems.
We designed a 11.3 kW system using 27 Q.CELLS Q.PEAK DUO ML-G11+ panels (419W each). Q.CELLS Q.PEAK DUO panels feature half-cut cell technology with excellent anti-degradation performance. Made by Hanwha, they carry a 25-year product warranty and are widely recognized for consistent real-world output.
The Enphase IQ8M microinverters convert DC to AC at each individual panel, maximizing production even when some panels are shaded. Enphase’s panel-level monitoring lets the homeowner track performance of every single panel through the Enphase app. The IQ8 series also supports Sunlight Backup — limited daytime power during grid outages even without a battery.
Equipment Reviews
New Jersey ADI (Administratively Determined Incentive) pays $85.90/MWh for Energy Year 2025-26, rising to $95.23/MWh for EY2026-27. Payments continue for 15 years.
Federal Tax Credit Status: The residential solar tax credit (Section 25D) expired December 31, 2025. Homeowner-purchased systems receive $0 federal tax credit. All savings estimates above are calculated without any federal credit. Third-party owned systems (leases/PPAs) may still benefit from the commercial ITC (Section 48/48E) claimed by the financing company.
“The ADI incentive payments plus net metering make NJ solar economics work really well. NuWatt explained the 15-year ADI income stream clearly and helped us understand the real ROI.”
