Brilliant support to get my solar battery working again. I didn’t expect help on a Saturday but Ron answered the phone, listened and sent me the information I needed to get it going, answered questions etc. A brilliant service I’d happily recommend.

My Givenergy system went offline, so I lost control of it. Ron from STS and Craig from Norfolk Solar were most helpful in diagnosing the problem by phone. Full marks for their patience and ability.

We decided to treat ourselves to an upgrade to our existing solar system, and after a little searching, it became evident that Ron and his team provide the service and support we required. Decommissioning and recommissioning our new SunSynk Acure inverter and a wall-mounted Fogstar battery (which is of substantial size and weight compared to the original) was completed swiftly and competently. The installation was perfectly executed, and all upgraded paperwork for the increased battery export capacity was handled by Ron. I have no hesitation in recommending this team of support technicians to you.

My issue was assessed and resolved quickly once the engineer was able to look at the problem. This took a little longer than I had expected (3 days) and keeping the PC on all day/everyday with Sentinel open was a little cumbersome I thought. That said, with little support coming from GivEnergy nowadays it was good to find someone who knew the platform and could resolve my issue.

Brilliant service from Ron - our GivEnergy inverter stopped working on Tuesday what a nightmare seen as the company who installed it are no longer in business. Through social media I found STS (Ron) he had a new inverter and it was fitted and working by Friday - what I thought was going to be a nightmare turned out not to be!!! Great guy great company - def my go to now for anything solar related - Thank you so much

I’ve used Ron a couple of times regarding issues with my Givenergy inverter and batteries after Givenergy went bust. My system stopped working properly so it was a stressful time but Ron resolved the issues and got my system working properly again. He’s really helpful and knowledgeable and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and to use him again if the need arose.

Emergency response — rate card

Remote triage
Free if we can’t fix it

Free if we can't fix it remotely. If we do fix it remotely, you pay the remote-fix rate only.

On-site callout (BH)
from £395

Business-hours emergency callout — diagnosis + scope of any larger remedial work.

On-site (out-of-hours)
from £495

Weekend, evening or confirmed-safety same-day attendance.

Commercial inverter swap
from £1,995

Fitting for commercial three-phase and central inverter replacement. Part sourced separately at cost.

What we respond to
Inverter failure

Complete shutdown, error codes, overcurrent faults, grid relay failure, or intermittent tripping. We diagnose the root cause and carry out on-site inverter replacement where required — SMA, Huawei, Solis, SolarEdge, GoodWe, Fronius and others.

Generation loss

Sudden or gradual drop in kWh output. Could indicate string faults, failed optimisers, partial shading from new obstructions, soiling, or degraded panels. We compare actual performance against expected yield and isolate the cause.

Monitoring offline

System reporting stopped — data gaps, inverter communication lost, sensors showing stale readings. Often resolvable remotely via a firmware reset or CT clamp recalibration; if the logger needs reconnecting to the site network, we do that on site.

Battery storage faults

BMS errors, charge/discharge failures, cell balancing warnings, or thermal shutdowns on commercial battery arrays. Module-level diagnosis and coordination with the battery manufacturer where warranty claims are applicable.

Safety alarms

Ground faults, arc faults, DC isolation failure, or damaged cabling flagged by the inverter or external monitoring. We attend, safely isolate the affected circuit, provide a written safety assessment, and scope the remedial repair.

Export + G99 issues

Export limitation not working correctly, DNO compliance faults, or G99 relay tripping unexpectedly. Reconfigure export settings, verify protection relay parameters, and ensure the system meets its connection agreement.

How emergency repair works — 5 steps

1
Report the fault

Use the form below or call us directly. Provide as much detail as you can: error codes, which inverter is affected, when the issue started, and whether the system is still generating. The more we know up-front, the faster the triage.

2
Same-day remote triage

An engineer reviews monitoring data, error logs, and system history remotely. Many faults — communication errors, firmware issues, export limitation problems — can be diagnosed and resolved without a site visit. Remote triage is free if we cannot resolve remotely.

3
On-site attendance

Best-effort next-business-day on-site attendance. Our engineer attends with the tools, test equipment, and — where pre-identified — replacement components needed to resolve the fault in a single visit. Out-of-hours callouts available for confirmed safety issues.

4
Repair or written quote

Faulty inverters swapped, failed strings reconnected, isolators replaced, monitoring reconnected, safety issues remediated. Any larger remedial work is quoted in writing before we proceed — no surprise invoices, no work without your sign-off.

5
Written fault report

Every callout concludes with a written report: diagnosis, work completed, parts replaced, recommendations. Suitable for sharing with insurers, landlords, facilities-management teams, or the DNO if grid-side issues were flagged.

Emergency callout coverage — Yorkshire

From our Yorkshire base we attend commercial sites across Leeds and West Yorkshire, Wakefield and the Five Towns, and the Barnsley district. Remote triage is available nationwide.

FAQ

Commercial emergency repair — frequently asked questions

Same-day remote triage during business hours — we acknowledge the fault, pull monitoring data, and start diagnosis. On-site attendance is best-effort next-business-day subject to engineer availability and travel distance. Out-of-hours and same-day on-site available for confirmed safety issues, with the out-of-hours premium applied.
Same no-fix-no-fee model as the consumer side: remote triage is free if we can't fix the issue remotely. The callout fee is from £395 business hours, from £495 out-of-hours. Parts and any larger remedial work are quoted in writing before we proceed — no surprise invoices.
Yes — every brand, every installer. We are not tied to any manufacturer or installer network. Our diagnostic is based solely on what the equipment is doing on site and what the monitoring data shows. If the original installer is no longer trading, we can also reconstruct the documentation paper-trail you need for insurance or warranty claims.
All major commercial inverter brands: SMA, Huawei, Solis, SolarEdge, GoodWe, Fronius, Sungrow, ABB, Ingeteam. Commercial battery storage from BYD, Pylontech, GivEnergy commercial, Tesla Powerpack. Three-phase, string and micro-inverter configurations all supported, plus residential brands found on smaller commercial sites.
For pre-identified failures, yes — if remote triage confirms an inverter is dead, we source the replacement before the visit so the swap happens in a single trip. For complex commercial inverters with long lead-times, we attend first to confirm the diagnosis, then schedule the replacement once parts are sourced. All commercial inverter replacement is charged at our commercial replacement rate (from £1,995 fitting only) plus the part.
Yes. Every emergency callout concludes with a written fault report detailing the diagnosis, work completed, parts replaced, and any further recommendations. The report is suitable for sharing with insurers, landlords, facilities-management teams, or the DNO if grid-side issues are flagged. If the fault triggered safety isolation, the report documents the assessment and the re-commissioning steps.
You get a written quote before any extra work begins. The callout fee covers the diagnosis and the work originally scoped — if the diagnosis reveals additional faults (failed strings, BMS issues, structural problems), we scope and quote them separately so you can decide whether to proceed now or later. No work happens without your sign-off.
If the emergency reveals the system needs ongoing technical oversight — common when the original installer is no longer responsive — we can transition you onto our system-takeover service, which provides baseline audit + documentation handover + ongoing monitoring. The decision is yours.
