About Our Training
We provide a comprehensive training program to all of our professional Solar Consultants. Our rigorous educational program takes the time to focus on every aspect of solar installations, from the fundamentals of designing arrays to the technicalities of materials, financial benefits, lending options, production expectations, State/Federal Incentives, environmental solutions and much more. Using interactive, personalized lectures, team building exercises, aptitude testing and home assignments, we effectively nurture true Solar Consultants, rather than just sales people.
The Got Sun Go Solar program results in the growth of superior Solar Consultants who approach each customer with a strong knowledge base and the tools that they need to assist virtually any potential residential and/or small commercial customer.
The process begins with a solar consulting initiating communication with a homeowner to learn more about their personal goals, their home, and interest in solar. From there the consultant will obtain an electric bill from the homeowner and analyze their historical electric load. Once an annual load is known, the consultant will design a solar array with a goal to reduce a homeowner’s electric load as much as possible, bearing in mind physical and economical constraints.
About The Company
Got Sun Go Solar is a full-service solar provider for both residential and commercial applications serving the southeast area of Massachusetts. We have over 25 years of contracting experience and have been installing solar systems for over seven years. As an all-inclusive EPC, our price includes EVERY part of your installation, the engineering, procurement, and construction, so you can rest assure that we will take care of every aspect of the transitions toward solar independence.
We pride ourselves in providing an effortless, turn-key process. You will only be responsible for the signing of documents and once installed, flipping the switch to power on your system. Our supplier’s products are made in the USA, manufactured to the highest standards of quality, performance, and durability.
Our office team members continuously train on the stringent, ever evolving paperwork and permitting requirements that vary from town to town. For example, a house built in 1975 will require a structural stamp from a state certified engineer, which usually costs over $600, but will be supplied by GSGS at no additional charge.
Our seasoned operations managers handle all of the permitting, Solar Renewable Energy Certificates (SREC) accounts, utility correspondence, and MA Solar Loan requirements. The design and build steps require the work of our outside team members, trusted roofing teams, state certified developers, electricians, and engineers. We manage the entire project from beginning to conversion and provide comprehensive post-installation support.
Quality craftsmanship is very important at Got Sun Go Solar and we take great care in ensuring that each and every installation is held to our highest standards. While aesthetics are a major motivation for our scrupulous methods, safety is our number one concern, our team triple-checks every installation to ensure that they exceed all building code requirements.
As a long-time local contractor, we differentiate from our competition in versatility and experience. We design and build pergolas, car ports, buildings, and structures that support solar engineering. Don’t just take our word for it, see our online reviews at SolarReviews.

What Is Net Metering
For folks interested in learning more about Net Metering, please review the article below from our partner, SEIA
Net Metering
Net metering allows residential and commercial customers who generate their own electricity from solar power to feed electricity they do not use back into the grid. Many states have passed net metering laws. In other states, utilities may offer net metering programs voluntarily or as a result of regulatory decisions. Differences between states’ legislation and implementation mean that the benefits of net metering can vary widely for solar customers in different areas of the country.
What Is Net Metering?
Net metering is a billing mechanism that credits solar energy system owners for the electricity they add to the grid. For example, if a residential customer has a PV system on the home’s rooftop, it may generate more electricity than the home uses during daylight hours. If the home is net-metered, the electricity meter will run backwards to provide a credit against what electricity is consumed at night or other periods where the home’s electricity use exceeds the system’s output. Customers are only billed for their “net” energy use. On average, only 20-40% of a solar energy system’s output ever goes into the grid. Exported solar electricity serves nearby customers’ loads.
This digital meter runs in both directions to accommodate electricity generated at this customer’s home.
A 4 kilowatt PV system on a home in this area would offset around 4911 kilowatt hours
of electricity each calendar year, saving the homeowner over $380 on their utility bill.
(Source – NREL PV Watts, EIA)
Giving Customers Control Over Their Electricity Bills
Net metering allows utility customers to generate their own electricity cleanly and efficiently. During the day, most solar customers produce more electricity than they consume; net metering allows them to export that power to the grid and reduce their future electric bills. California public agencies and schools will save $2.5 billion in electricity costs over the next 30 years using net metering.
Creating Jobs & Encouraging Private Investment
Net metering provides substantial statewide economic benefits in terms of jobs, income and investment. Net metering increases demand for solar energy systems, which in turn creates jobs for the installers, electricians, and manufacturers who work in the solar supply chain. Today, the solar industry employs nearly 174,000 American workers in large part due to strong state net metering policies which have allowed the solar industry to thrive.
Protecting the Electric Grid
Unfortunately, some utilities perceive net metering policies as lost revenue opportunities. In fact, net metering policies create a smoother demand curve for electricity and allow utilities to better manage their peak electricity loads. By encouraging generation near the point of consumption, net metering also reduces the strain on distribution systems and prevents losses in long-distance electricity transmission and distribution.

Haynes Solar Connection
Congratulations to John and Jane Haynes for their new solar array that was recently installed on their home in Rehoboth. They are true believers in science and facts and that solar is the way to go.
We are gratified that they have decided to make a difference and help themselves and help the environment. It is a pleasure to work with passionate homeowners like the Haynes’ to change the way we produce and consume electricity one array at a time.
Looks great! Thank you for going solar!
