Very very helpfuland so quick. Made sure that a non expert like myself understood what the problem was and how to resolve it.

Declan S · Jun 2026

Contacted Solar Tech about my Givenergy battery storage system that wasn't working. Battery status was "idle". Given the company Givenergy had gone bust, I need independent quality technical help. Very patient and clearly very knowledgeable about battery systems Ron diagnosed possible issues and suggested several possible remedies. Worked our way through them and fortunately it began to work. The fault was very specific and only an experienced engineer would have thought to check. Suffice to say I'll be back if I need independent support again. Lastly you only pay if there is a solution. Outstanding.

Mr P · Jun 2026

My Givenergy battery stopped working nearly a month ago. After unsuccessfully reaching out to my installer, who looks like he's also busted, I found Solar Tech Support on a Google search. They fixed my issue in a couple of hours. Any frustrated Givenergy customers, I highly recommend these guys.

Sarma Amirapu · May 2026

Excellent response to diagnose a problem on our SolarEdge installation. Kept us informed at every step. Diagnosis quickly completed and solution implemented.

Les Bennett · May 2026

Prompt and useful support regarding my Sunsynk system lack of performance. Ronald simplified the technical issues to make them understandable. Many thanks, looking forward to follow up.

Patrick Keenan · May 2026

Amazing support, went out of his way to help try and get us back up and running

Paul Smith · May 2026

What a fantastic service. Had my fault diagnosed within minutes and actually managed to resolve the issue remotely within a few minutes more. This guy is like a “Solar Batman” helping consumers fix their problems using his extensive industry knowledge and expertise. Outstanding service. Thank you so much.

Andrew Palmer · May 2026

Excellent service from Solar Tech Support. Extremely quick to respond, easy to deal with and clearly very talented engineers. They were persistent throughout a complex GivEnergy battery issue and resolved everything completely. Highly knowledgeable, professional and reassuring support from start to finish. Highly recommended.

David Harris · May 2026

Ron responded very promptly regarding my GivEnergy battery issue, his knowledgeable diagnosis was spot on and resolved the issue on first attempt. Would recommend to any and all.

Simon Hill · May 2026

Ron made more sense in 20 mins than our installer has done over the last 12 months There is a jungle out there and you need someone like Ron to give a comprehensive overview and solution

David · May 2026

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.

Ian · May 2026

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.

Sree · May 2026

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

Dennis Brown · May 2026

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)

Tony Deacon · May 2026

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

Phill · May 2026

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

michael fairhurst · May 2026

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.

Mr Machin · May 2026

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.

Keith Ballard · Apr 2026

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.

Hugh Speirs · Apr 2026

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.

Christopher · Apr 2026

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. 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.

customer · Apr 2026

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.

Andy Thomas · Apr 2026

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!

Leeds commercial solar

Building types we repair across Leeds

Leeds has one of the largest concentrations of commercial rooftop solar in West Yorkshire. Systems installed on schools, university buildings, offices, and warehouses between 2011 and 2016 are now reaching the age where inverter failures, isolator degradation, and monitoring breakdowns become unavoidable. We attend all building types.

Schools and colleges

Leeds has over 230 primary and secondary schools, many fitted with 10–50 kW rooftop arrays under government Salix funding between 2012 and 2015. Common faults: original Solis or SMA string inverters reaching end of life, DC isolator failures flagged during periodic electrical inspections, and monitoring systems that stopped reporting years ago. We coordinate access with site managers and work around term-time schedules.

Offices and city-centre buildings

Commercial offices across the city centre, South Bank, Holbeck, and the Aire Valley enterprise zone. Typical systems: 30–100 kW SolarEdge or Huawei three-phase installations on flat roofs, often with export limitation under G99. Faults we see: optimiser-level failures causing string dropouts, communication board failures on SMA Tripower units, and export relay tripping during peak generation. Facilities managers need a written fault report for landlords or building insurers.

Warehouses and logistics

Large roof areas across Cross Green, Stourton, Hunslet, and the M621 corridor. Systems from 100 kW up to 500 kW with multiple string inverters. The most common failure mode on these sites is a single inverter going offline while the rest of the array continues generating — the fault often goes unnoticed for months until someone checks the monitoring or notices a higher electricity bill. We diagnose which inverter has failed, source the replacement, and recommission the string.

Retail and leisure

Retail parks at White Rose, Crown Point, and Kirkstall, plus leisure centres and community buildings. These sites typically have 20–80 kW systems installed by national contractors who may no longer offer local maintenance. Faults include rooftop access issues causing deferred maintenance, bird guard failures leading to nesting damage, and inverter replacements delayed because the original installer cannot respond. We attend as an independent provider with no tie to the original installation company.

Pricing

Commercial repair costs

All pricing confirmed in a fixed-price written quote before work begins. No hidden callout fees for Leeds sites. These are typical ranges — exact cost depends on inverter brand, system size, and roof access requirements.

Remote triage

£75–£145

Monitoring review, error analysis, remote resolution where possible

On-site diagnosis

£295–£495

Site visit, string testing, inverter inspection, written fault report

Inverter replacement

£1,995–£9,995

Supply, install, commission, export verification, completion report

Component repair

£495–£1,995

Isolator, fuse, connector, string repair, monitoring hardware

Brands

Commercial inverters we replace in Leeds

Leeds has a broad mix of commercial inverter brands reflecting a decade of different installers and procurement cycles. We carry diagnostic experience across all of them and source replacements from multiple distributors — we are not locked to any single manufacturer.

SMA Tripower

15–60 kW three-phase string inverters. Common on schools and public buildings installed 2012–2016. Grid relay failures and communication board faults are the primary end-of-life modes.

Huawei SUN2000

30–100 kW range on newer office and industrial installations. Generally reliable but communication module failures and firmware-related export issues occur.

Solis commercial

25–60 kW units on warehouses and schools. Earlier Solis models have shorter working lifespans and fan failures are common once past 8 years.

SolarEdge three-phase

Optimiser-based systems on offices and retail. Individual optimiser failures cause string-level generation loss. We carry P370 and P505 replacements.

GoodWe

20–50 kW on newer commercial installs. AFCI nuisance tripping and DC switch faults on early GoodWe models. Later revisions are more stable.

Fronius Symo / Eco

Legacy three-phase units on older Leeds installations. Fronius exited the UK market — we source compatible replacements and handle the switchover.

Also: Growatt, Fox ESS, Sofar, Enphase commercial, ABB/FIMER, Delta, and legacy Aurora/Power-One units. All supported brands →

FAQ

Commercial repair in Leeds — common questions

Leeds is our home base so response times are the fastest we offer. Same-day remote triage is standard for all faults. For on-site attendance, O&M contract holders receive next-business-day visits. Non-contract emergency callouts are typically attended within 1–2 working days depending on engineer availability. Many commercial faults — monitoring offline, export limitation errors, communication failures — can be diagnosed and resolved remotely without a site visit.
Commercial inverter replacement starts from £1,995 for a single-phase or small three-phase unit and ranges up to £9,995 for larger three-phase string inverters on systems above 100 kW. The cost includes the replacement inverter, on-site installation, commissioning, export verification, and a written completion report. All pricing is confirmed in a fixed-price quote before work begins — no hidden labour or callout charges.
Yes. We regularly attend schools, college campuses, council buildings, and NHS facilities across Leeds. We carry public liability insurance, DBS-cleared engineers are available on request, and we coordinate access with site managers and caretakers to minimise disruption to building operations. Many school systems in Leeds were installed between 2011 and 2015 under government Salix funding and are now reaching the age where inverter failures and wiring degradation become common.
Yes — the majority of our commercial repair work in Leeds is on systems originally installed by other companies. Many original installers have ceased trading, moved away from maintenance, or are unable to respond to faults promptly. We are fully independent and not tied to any manufacturer or installer network. We diagnose and repair regardless of who installed the system or which brand of inverter is fitted.
