Solar Installation in Shirley, MA (12.88 kW) + Military Discount

For this home in Shirley, we designed a 12.88 kW DC solar system that combines strong annual production, premium equipment, and a clean roof layout tailored specifically to the property.

The system features 28 high-output REC 460W Pure-RX panels, each paired with an Enphase IQ8X microinverter. It is estimated to generate approximately 17,568 kWh of clean electricity per year, helping the homeowner reduce reliance on utility electricity while building long-term energy value into the home.

The completed array is mounted on a durable IronRidge racking system, providing a strong foundation designed for dependable performance in New England conditions.

This homeowner also qualified for our Military Appreciation Discount, helping reduce the upfront cost of the project as a small thank-you for their service.

This system was custom designed to make the most of the home’s available roof space while creating a clean, balanced finished appearance.

Using high-output 460W REC panels allowed us to build a substantial 12.88 kW DC system with only 28 modules. The carefully planned layout provides strong annual production without overcrowding the roof.

The result is a premium solar installation designed around the home, the homeowner’s energy needs, and the demands of year-round New England weather.

This system combines premium REC solar panels, Enphase microinverter technology, and durable IronRidge racking.

The REC Pure-RX panels provide 460 watts of power per module, allowing us to generate more electricity from the available roof space while maintaining a clean and efficient system layout.

Each panel is paired with its own Enphase IQ8X microinverter, allowing the modules to operate independently. The homeowner can also monitor system performance through the Enphase platform, including production at the individual panel level.

The IronRidge racking system provides a strong, dependable foundation for the array while maintaining the clean, professional finished appearance we expect from every installation.

We are proud to recognize veterans and active-duty military homeowners who choose Future Energy Solar.

As a National Grid customer, this homeowner may benefit from available Massachusetts solar programs, including net metering and SMART 3.0, subject to program eligibility and utility approval.

Net metering allows qualifying homeowners to receive utility-bill credits when their solar system produces more electricity than the home is using and sends the excess energy back to the grid.
