HMRC has filed yet another winding up petition against a company of Solarplicity, this time Solarplicity Energy Limited.
According to Companies House, the nature of the business is buying and selling electricity.
The accounts for Solarplicity Energy are currently listed as overdue and should have been filed on 31 December 2018.
HMRC published the winding up petition on 31 July and a hearing is scheduled at the High Court on 21 August.
Earlier this week Utility Week revealed that the company was “exiting the utilities services business”, after a number of its related businesses went into administration.
A Solarplicity spokesperson said at the time: “We can confirm that Solarplicity is exiting the Utility Services and SPTMY business and restructuring the company to focus on our core operations in renewable energy.
“First and foremost we are a renewable technology business striving to fight fuel poverty and make renewable energy available to everyone.
“We will be announcing exciting new developments for our business as well as for our retail energy customers in the coming days.”
Price Bailey LLP appointed as administrator for Solarplicity Utility Services on 30 July.
Solarplicity Supply, meanwhile, is currently subject to a provisional order from Ofgem which was confirmed on 6 August.
Last week Brighton-based Toto Energy acquired the majority of Solarplicity’s customers and said it will become the preferred supplier of grid energy for the company’s community energy scheme.
Yesterday (8 August) Utility Week revealed that more than 3,000 complaints against Solarplicity have been accepted for investigation by the Energy Ombudsman so far in 2019.
This figure includes 583 complaints in July alone.
An Energy Ombudsman spokesman said: “So far this year, we have accepted for investigation 3,324 complaints about Solarplicity, including 583 in July alone.”
