On the ground in Jones County
Permits inside Gray come from the city, and Jones County covers everything else, from the subdivisions along Highway 129 toward Macon to the farms around Haddock. Tri-County EMC is headquartered in Gray and serves a large share of the county, Central Georgia EMC serves other parts, and Georgia Power serves Gray itself, so the right interconnection form depends on the address. Much of the housing dates from the 1980s on: brick and vinyl ranches, two-story houses on a few acres and manufactured homes, with metal on many older farmhouses. The Piedmont National Wildlife Refuge and part of the Oconee National Forest reach into the north end, and the hardwoods and pines around them drop leaves, needles and the occasional trunk onto arrays. Squirrels chewing exposed wire under panels are a real nuisance in this much woodland.
Round Oak and the roads near the Piedmont refuge have houses tucked under tall hardwoods, where a system that made sense ten years ago now loses much of its morning sun. Around Haddock and Wayside, older farmhouses roofed in metal bring a different job, since the attachments have to suit that roof's profile. Closer to Gray, the newer subdivisions mostly need a straightforward detach and reset when the shingles wear out.

FAQ
Often, yes, when it is planned. Art of Solar is a Florida solar company, so Georgia work is booked ahead and grouped with other jobs in Middle Georgia, and it only goes ahead with the Georgia license the work needs. Send the address, the panel count and the roofer's tear-off date for a straight answer.
Georgia treats the wiring side of solar as electrical contracting, so taking an array off, fixing it or putting it back belongs with a contractor licensed by the Division of Electrical Contractors of the State Construction Industry Licensing Board. There is no separate solar license, and cities and counties can add their own permit and business license rules.
Homes in Jones County are generally served by Tri-County EMC, based in Gray, plus Central Georgia EMC and Georgia Power. When an array goes back on after a roof job the utility usually needs to know, and the building department normally inspects the reinstall before the system is switched back on.
Usually. The installer's own workmanship warranty is gone, but the panels, inverter and optimizers carry manufacturer warranties that normally still apply, and a dead system is often one failed part rather than a worn-out array.
