Michael's GivEnergy Inverters Review & Verdict
Michael Bloch covers the latest developments in home electrification for SolarQuotes.
GivEnergy hybrid inverters looked ok, but after reading poor reviews from frustrated GivEnergy battery owners in the company's home country (UK), we wanted to see the firm's products with more time in Australia operating under Australian conditions — and if their support for local owners is up to scratch.
In 2026 the company went into administration, so their products are best avoided.

Company Info
GivEnergy, owned by JMHing Power Ltd, was founded in 2016 in Staffordshire, England. The company launched its first hybrid inverter in 2017 and its first battery system in the UK in 2018. GivEnergy has become a major player in the UK's home energy storage sector and expanded into other countries, entering the Australian market in 2024.
The company had a factory in Shenzhen, China, through subsidiary Shenzhen GivEnergy Technology Co., Ltd. While GivEnergy officially opened its first UK manufacturing facility in 2024, that plant is primarily manufacturing commercial energy storage systems.
