I have a GivEnergy system consisting of two batteries, two inverters and a controlling EMS (Energy Management System) which has not worked since Nov 2025. After six months I discovered Solar Tech Support, reached out to them and Ron phoned me back – how often do you get that service? Could not be more helpful – worked directly with me over the phone, outside what I would call normal working hours. Lucid explanations and we were able to discuss the issues and history using camera and email history. As this was a very rare setup, Ron was able to access an EMS expert in the field to confirm the solution. One sunny day in, I am now only paying for standing charge and a few pence for spikes in grid consumption while battery catches up with house demand.
When my GivEnergy system had an issue, I was completely left without support and had honestly lost all hope. Thankfully, I searched online and found Ron, which completely turned things around. After sending him a message, he responded incredibly fast and called me to assure me that he would get the problem fixed. I really admire his dedicated, supportive nature and his determination to find a solution. With this kind of outstanding attitude and customer service, he has absolutely secured a future customer in me.
Ron want out of is way to help, nothing was to much. He was very thorough in what he did Very knowledgeable I would highly recommend Ron and his company He did a fantastic job for me. if you have any problems, he'll do his best to help you out and resolve your problem. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them
Ron took me through a diagnostic to confirm my GivEnergy Inverter had a fault. A common one as it turns out with the AC Inverter. As GivEnergy is defunct there is no immediate fix, aside from sourcing 2nd hand replacement. It may be that a fix becomes available over the summer which would make a lot of GivEnergy customers happy (Again)
Contacted Ron with a problem and he sorted it out quickly with no problems at all. Very knowledgeable on anything solar/ batteries. I would recommend him to anyone
I've spoken to Ron a couple of times with issues with my Givenergy installation. Such a friendly knowledge guy very highly recommended. Thank you very much for resolving my issues
Contacted Solar Tech Support in desperation. After explaining the issues I had with my system a diagnosis was made and a solution proposed. Fantastic service, even contacted a manufacturer to arrange replacement parts for me. Great communications, explained all they were doing and what I had to do, clearly and precisly. Followed up to confirm all was ok. Excellent service.
After GivEnergy went into liquidation, just my luck, my battery started playing up (internal board crashed). Contacted my installer - not interested! Found Solar tech support on a Google search. Sooo glad I found this company! Ron is extremely helpful and has plenty of experience. He soon confirmed what the fault was, and helped me to get my system up and running again. Now moved my GivEnergy account to Solar tech support, and will definitely use again if I have more issues. Unusual to find such a helpful company in these times, no morons reading scripts, just direct contact with the engineer.
Contacted Solar Tech Support when trying to understand what my Givenergy inverter problem might be and what might be my options. Received good/honest advise which backed up my thoughts.
Ron is a super star. Two months ago my GivEnergy battery failed a firmware upgrade leaving it a brick. My installer couldn't/wouldn't fix it. GivEnergy couldn't/wouldn't fix it. Then they went into administration and all hope was lost. A flurry of emails later and Ron had diagnosed the fault (failed USB flash drive, something I'd suspected) and talked me through resolving it. Two months of nothing resolved in about 3 hours. It's great to work with someone who pays attention to the details, knows that they're doing (not just following a script) and gets stuff sorted without a fuss or up-charging.
I can add to the list of customers who had already 'given up' on GivEnergy due to their appalling customer service, and that was before they went into administration (their Trustpilot reviews don't lie!). So you can imagine my desperation when, having changed my ISP and my Inverter, predictably, proving to be the only device that didn't connect automatically to my new network, I found zero prospect of any customer support with GivEnergy having called in the administrators just five days earlier! The salvation came from Solar Tech Support. My IT advisor stumbled across their web site and some very helpful tips for beleaguered GivEnergy customers, as well as an offer to provide direct assistance. Nothing ventured, I decided to drop them an E-Mail, with very low expectations based on my experience of GivEnergy customer support. Within an hour Ron had responded with some pin point advice, and after a few exchanges of E-Mails he had nailed the problem, enabling the combined efforts of my IT advisor and solar installer to resolve it and reconnect my Inverter. Thank you Solar Tech Support, and Ron in particular, for coming to the aid of a deserted and despondent GivEnergy customer. Expert, razor sharp advice and first class customer service, even though I wasn't officially a customer.
This company are a rare gem, I had a very unusual problem following a failed firmware upgrade on my GivEnergy kit. I then found out GivEnergy were in administration and had dismissed all their support staff! None of the usual fixes to try and restore my inverter comms would work, and I looked everywhere, forums, GivEnergy youtube support videos - even AI couldn't figure it out. My installer was talking about huge sums for system replacements, and being vague / evasive about if they'd even install replacement GivEnergy inverter. Enter Solar Tech Support, reassuring and knowledgeable from the very start, I've learnt loads about my solar system though the friendly chat while my engineer worked as he diagnosed the problem and figured out a fix procedure that I've not found anywhere else - amazing . If you need solar system repairs - especially if you like me have been left high and dry by GivEnergy, I cannot recommend this company enough. Give them a call.
I sent a message on their website regarding a problem I have on my Givenergy system. Although not supplied by Ronald, I thought it was worth an email. Within the hour on a Saturday, he phoned and we discussed the problem. He logged in remotely and gave excellent advice. I'm too far away for his on-site help but he did diagnose the problem and was happy also to chat through my thoughts about an upcoming solar/battery install I'm planning. Great bloke.... if only he was nearer!

Your GivEnergy system is tied to three parties
Unlike simpler solar systems, GivEnergy operates a platform model. Every system on the GivEnergy portal is linked to a homeowner account and an installer account. Both are connected to GivEnergy centrally. This three-way relationship is how GivEnergy manages warranties, firmware updates, fault alerts, and remote support.
Your portal account at givenergy.cloud. You see live data, change schedules, and manage battery settings. This is the consumer-facing account.
The company that installed the system is registered on GivEnergy's platform as the responsible installer. They receive fault alerts, can access your system remotely, and act as your first line of technical support.
The manufacturer. They host the cloud portal, manage firmware updates, process warranty claims, and coordinate between homeowner and installer. They sit at the centre of the relationship.
What breaks when your GivEnergy installer goes bust
Your system keeps generating — the hardware does not depend on the installer being active. But the support structure around it collapses, and problems that would have been caught early can go unnoticed for months.
When an installer is active on the GivEnergy platform, they receive automatic alerts if your inverter goes offline, if generation drops, or if fault codes appear. Without an active installer, these alerts go nowhere. A fault that would have been caught in hours can run for weeks or months.
Many installers registered customer systems under their own company account rather than creating individual homeowner accounts. If the company no longer exists, you may not be able to log in at all — your system is visible only under a dead company account.
GivEnergy's warranty process typically runs through the installer. If a component fails and your installer no longer exists, you need an active registered installer on the account to raise the claim and coordinate the replacement with GivEnergy.
If your system starts behaving oddly — battery not charging, export dropping, fault codes flashing — the installer would have been your first call. Without one, you are left trying to navigate GivEnergy's direct support as an unassigned homeowner, which is slower and less effective.
Some GivEnergy firmware updates are pushed through the installer relationship. Without an active installer, your system may fall behind on updates that fix bugs, improve battery management, or patch security issues.
We become your registered GivEnergy installer
STS takes over the installer role on the GivEnergy platform. We handle the transfer with GivEnergy, get you a homeowner portal account under your own email, and register as your active installer — restoring the full three-way relationship so your system is properly supported again.
What we do
We contact GivEnergy directly, provide the documentation they need (your serial number, proof of ownership, Companies House evidence if the installer is dissolved), and manage the process until the system is released from the old installer account. You do not need to chase GivEnergy yourself.
Once the transfer is complete, you get a GivEnergy portal account under your own email address with full access to live data, schedules, battery settings, and system configuration. Your system, your account, your control.
STS is added as the registered installer for your system. This restores the installer layer — we have visibility of your system, receive fault alerts from GivEnergy, and can access your system remotely for diagnostics and support.
Once we have access, we review your system configuration, check for active fault codes, verify the dongle is connected and reporting correctly, review battery health, and confirm that charge schedules and export limits are set correctly for your tariff. If something needs fixing, we flag it immediately.
What you need to provide
Inverter serial number — on the label on the side or bottom of the GivEnergy inverter. Take a photo.
Proof of property ownership — completion letter, Land Registry document, tenancy agreement, or recent utility bill at the address.
Installer name (if known) — so we can check Companies House status and include dissolution evidence with the transfer request.
Any documentation you have — MCS certificate, original invoice, commissioning report, warranty documents. More evidence strengthens the case with GivEnergy.
Keep your system watched — the STS health plan
Once STS is registered as your installer, you can opt for the health plan for constant monitoring and proactive fault notification. Your system is watched so you do not have to be.
We monitor your GivEnergy system through the installer portal. If the inverter goes offline, if generation drops below expected levels, or if fault codes appear — we know about it, usually before you do.
When a fault is detected, we contact you with a clear explanation of what has happened, how serious it is, and what the next steps are. No jargon, no guesswork — just a plain message telling you whether you need to do something or whether we can resolve it remotely.
A system generating at 60% capacity because of a tripped string, a failing battery module, or a disconnected CT clamp can cost hundreds in lost generation and missed export payments before you notice it on your electricity bill. Monitoring catches these issues early — often within hours rather than months.
As your registered installer, STS can raise warranty claims directly with GivEnergy on your behalf. If a component fails within warranty, we handle the claim, coordinate the replacement, and make sure it is resolved — rather than you trying to navigate GivEnergy's process alone as an unassigned homeowner.
We periodically review your system configuration to make sure charge schedules, battery settings, and export limits are still optimal for your tariff and usage pattern. If you change energy supplier or tariff, we can adjust your settings remotely.
Transferring the account yourself
If you prefer to handle the transfer directly with GivEnergy rather than using STS, here is the process. Be aware that installer-linked accounts can be more difficult to transfer than standard homeowner accounts — GivEnergy may attempt to contact the dissolved company before proceeding.
On the label on the side or bottom of the GivEnergy inverter. Take a photo — you will need this for every communication with GivEnergy.
Search for the installer at gov.uk/get-information-about-a-company. If the company is dissolved or struck off, screenshot the entry — include it in your transfer request to GivEnergy as evidence the installer no longer exists.
Completion letter from your solicitor, Land Registry document, tenancy agreement, or recent utility bill. GivEnergy requires this before transferring any system.
Contact GivEnergy via givenergy.cloud. Include your serial number, proof of ownership, Companies House evidence, your full name, property address, and the email you want the new account created under. A complete first email avoids back-and-forth.
Installer-linked transfers can take longer than standard ones. Reply to your original email — do not open a new ticket. If still stuck after two follow-ups, get in touch with STS and we can take over from wherever you left off.
Have access but no data? This is a different problem — dongle, WiFi, or cloud issue.
Monitor your system locally via the app, GivTCP, or Modbus — works without the cloud portal.
Full journey for new solar homeowners — system ID, monitoring, MCS, health check.
Full recovery guide — monitoring, documentation, warranties, and consumer protection.
