Our SolarEdge PV system with LG batteries had its first hiccup after 8 years of hard work. The Inverter failed. Fortunately I found Solar-Tech-Support who diagnosed the problem very quickly, ordered a replacement unit and fitted it shortly after we received the unit from SolarEdge. Very thorough and professional approach. Thank you, a solid 5 star recommendation.

Former All Seasons Energy customer? We take over monitoring, configuration, and support. Tell us the GivEnergy model — most faults are fixed remotely without a site visit.
Book diagnosticHow the diagnostic worksOur 3 year old GivEnergy batteries froze. They were showing 0% on the app, but they were fully charged. Some how Ron took over our inverter and remotely cured the problem. We live in King’s Lynn, he is in Leeds I believe. Very grateful.
My GivEnergy hybrid inverter + battery system had worked faultlessly for 3 years when it suddenly stopped charging and discharging the battery. On contacting my supplier, who had used a sub-contractor for the installation work, I was provided with an email address at GivEnergy but, as it turned out, this is only for GivEnergy Software who are not able to assist. A Google search led to the Solar Tech Support web site, which contains a wealth of helpful information. I requested a remote solar diagnostic, and after providing Ron access to my inverter, he was able to identify and fix the problem within minutes. I am very impressed by Ron’s expertise and knowledge, which included useful information on the current state of GivEnergy Ltd. I would thoroughly recommend Solar Tech Support.
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
Big thanks to Ron. He was incredibly patient and helpful over the phone, taking the time to walk myself and the installer through every troubleshooting step. Through lots of testing he figured out the issue was definitely a hardware issue, which allows us to consider our next steps. Support fees are clear and they operate a “no fix no fee” policy. It is rare to find that kind of honesty combined with dedicated phone support nowadays. I highly recommend Ron, if you need help with your solar system don’t hesitate to give him a call.
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
Why Sheffield has so many orphaned GivEnergy systems — and why shading matters here
Two stories in Sheffield. First: All Seasons Energy, a major local installer, liquidated in January 2026 and left hundreds of GivEnergy systems without monitoring access or aftercare. Systems were registered to their company account — your portal stopped working the moment they dissolved. Second: Sheffield's steep hillside geography creates unique solar generation patterns. West-facing slopes in Crookes and Walkley get afternoon sun only, north-facing properties in Hillsborough struggle in winter, and tree-shaded valleys around Dore and Totley have seasonal generation drops. A flat-rate charge schedule doesn't work well on part-shaded systems.
All Seasons installed GivEnergy systems across Sheffield — hundreds of them. They've since been dissolved, and if your system was registered to their account, your portal access has stopped. Monitoring locked, no aftercare, configuration never reviewed. We take over the full transition including monitoring transfer, warranty verification, and configuration audit.
West-facing slopes get afternoon sun only. North-facing properties struggle in winter. Tree-shaded valleys have seasonal generation drops. Standard charge schedules fail on these properties — the battery tries to charge from solar that simply isn't there. We adjust charge windows seasonally to account for Sheffield's unique topography.
Many Sheffield terraced homes have inverters installed in lofts. These run hot in summer and can throttle generation or trigger temperature fault codes. On-site visits often involve relocating the inverter to a cooler location or installing active cooling to maintain performance year-round.
All Seasons often left systems on default settings or configurations designed for a tariff the homeowner no longer uses. Charge schedules not aligned to Octopus Flux, SOC floors set wrong for part-shaded generation, eco mode disabled. Most are straightforward remote fixes that save £200–500 a year.
GivEnergy problems we fix most often in Sheffield
These are the faults we diagnose on Sheffield GivEnergy systems every week. Most are resolved remotely. Each links to a detailed guide.
The signature Sheffield problem. Solar panels on west-facing slopes, north-facing roofs, or tree-shaded properties generate much less than flat or south-facing roofs. The standard flat-rate charge schedule expects a certain amount of solar energy — when generation is lower due to shading, the battery never reaches full charge. We review your generation data, identify the seasonal variation, and adjust the charge schedule to account for Sheffield's unique topography.
All Seasons installed your system but registered it under their company account. Now that they're liquidated, you have no portal access. The battery is still working — you just can't see what it's doing or adjust the settings. We contact GivEnergy, verify ownership, and move your system to your own homeowner account. Full data history preserved. Most common issue we see in Sheffield right now.
Battery stays at 100% but the house pulls from the grid on cloudy days. The SOC floor (minimum charge level) is set too high, so the system assumes the battery always has enough power and disables grid charging. On part-shaded Sheffield properties where cloudy days hit solar hard, this wastes money and defeats the point of having a battery. We lower the floor to match your actual minimum generation.
Many Sheffield terraced homes have inverters in lofts. In summer these run very hot and can throttle generation, trigger temperature fault codes, or reduce output to protect the hardware. We assess whether relocation is needed or if active cooling (fan installation) would improve performance.
Standard charge schedules assume consistent daily solar generation. On Sheffield's hillside properties, generation varies by season and slope angle. Winter needs more grid charging because solar drops. Summer can charge more from solar. All Seasons left most systems on defaults — we adjust seasonally for where your panels actually are.
Sheffield's hillside properties need seasonal configuration adjustments
A standard charge schedule doesn't work on steep slopes, north-facing roofs, or tree-shaded properties. Sheffield has all three. Winter solar generation can drop 60–70% compared to summer — systems need more grid charging overnight in winter, more solar charging in summer. We audit your generation history, adjust charge windows seasonally, and optimise for your specific tariff and property orientation.
All Seasons Energy has gone — we take over your GivEnergy system
All Seasons Energy was the dominant GivEnergy installer in Sheffield and liquidated in January 2026. If your system is registered to their account, you've lost portal access, monitoring data, and any aftercare support. The GivEnergy 12-year warranty is with the manufacturer, not the installer — your coverage remains valid. We handle the complete transition: monitoring transfer to your own account, warranty verification, configuration audit, and ongoing support.
Move the GivEnergy system from All Seasons' account to your own homeowner account. Full data history preserved. We contact GivEnergy and coordinate the transfer directly. Monitoring setup guide →
Check every setting — charge schedule, eco mode, SOC floor, CT clamp direction — and optimise for your current tariff and property. Many All Seasons installations were left on defaults or generic settings.
Confirm your GivEnergy warranty status directly with the manufacturer. If you have a covered fault, we handle the claim. GivEnergy warranty details →

All Seasons Energy was based in Sheffield and installed hundreds of GivEnergy systems here before liquidating in January 2026. We're dealing with a wave of orphaned systems — monitoring locked, configurations on defaults, warranty claims stalled. Hillside geography creates unique shading challenges that All Seasons often didn't account for in their charge schedules.
