Solar Plants system in North Wales or Cheshire? Independent help
SolarPlants Ltd was based at Baglan Energy Park in Port Talbot and installed solar PV across Wales and beyond, including SolarEdge inverters with power optimisers and battery storage. It went into administration in December 2019. Most of its customers are in South Wales; if you are one of those in the north, our Colwyn Bay team can help.

SolarEdge optimisers: what can go wrong
Solar Plants promoted SolarEdge systems, where a small optimiser sits behind each panel and a SolarEdge inverter manages the whole array. When one optimiser stops reporting, generation can drop without any obvious sign on the roof. The inverter usually logs an error code, and the monitoring portal shows which panel has gone quiet.
A common snag after an installer closes is the monitoring account: the system may be registered to the installer's portal, so you cannot see the panel-level data. We can help you get access sorted and then track down the faulty part. We repair all makes, including SolarEdge.
Batteries from the late 2010s
If Solar Plants fitted a battery, we check its firmware, how it communicates with the inverter, and whether its usable capacity has fallen. These are checks, not promises: we tell you what we find and what, if anything, is worth doing.

Are you in our area?
We cover North Wales, Anglesey, the Wirral and Cheshire. Solar Plants was based in Port Talbot, about four hours from us, so we cannot help customers in South or Mid Wales. If you are there, look for an MCS-certified installer near you.

Questions from Solar Plants customers
Is Solar Plants still trading?
No. SolarPlants Limited (company 07550834) went into administration in December 2019 and was dissolved in February 2022. EcoShell is not connected with it.
Can you repair a SolarEdge optimiser that Solar Plants fitted?
Yes. We trace which optimiser or panel has a problem and repair or replace it. We repair all makes, including SolarEdge.
I live near Port Talbot. Can EcoShell help?
Sorry, no. We cover North Wales, Anglesey, the Wirral and Cheshire only. Please look for an MCS-certified installer closer to you.
Who has my SolarEdge monitoring account now?
It may still be registered to the installer's account. We can help you work out where it sits and get access arranged, so you can see your system again.
Is my Solar Plants battery still safe to use?
The installer closing does not make a battery unsafe. If it shows a warning light or error message, or you notice swelling, unusual heat or a burning smell, do not open or move it, and call us so we can check it.
