Solar Battery Backup for Moon Township Homeowners
Duquesne Light serves Moon Township. The township's housing is mostly 1970s through 2000s suburban construction with composition-shingle roofs, modern electrical panels, and the kind of straightforward roof pitches that simplify panel placement. Pennsylvania's net metering rules apply, letting Moon homeowners credit excess generation back against the utility bill over the year.
Moon Township is about thirty-five minutes from our South Side office once you factor in traffic across the bridges, and the western suburbs are some of our most-traveled install territory. We know the township's building inspector and the Duquesne Light interconnection paperwork. Site visits, install days, and post-install service calls all run smoothly because we're a routine part of the western Allegheny rotation.
