Titan Solar Power customers in Illinois: what happened, and who services your system now
Told employees on 13 June 2024 that it was closing, then filed for bankruptcy; named out of business in the state's 2025 report.
What happened
Titan Solar Power told its employees on 13 June 2024 that it was closing its doors, and subsequently filed for bankruptcy. TIME reported that the company had more than 100,000 customers. The Illinois Power Agency's 2025 Consumer Complaints and Disciplinary Actions report names Titan Solar Power among the out-of-business entities that received complaints in 2025. We have not confirmed the bankruptcy court, case number or chapter from the record, so this page does not state them.

What it means for your warranty
Your workmanship warranty is probably gone. When a company liquidates, its warranties are unsecured liabilities and generally do not survive the bankruptcy.
Your equipment warranty probably survived. Your panels and inverter are covered by the manufacturer, a separate company that still exists. Most major manufacturers are still honouring them. What you lost is the person who diagnoses the fault and files the claim.
Who took over, if anyone
No successor has been announced for Titan Solar Power customers. If you financed the system, the lender or lease company still holds your agreement, and some of them have hired contractors to finish or service systems. Ask them first, in writing, before you pay anyone for a diagnosis.
What you can still do
The state's Solar Restitution Program. The Illinois Power Agency's Solar Restitution Program pays up to $30,000 on a project of 25 kW or less and up to $50,000 on a larger one, to customers harmed by an Illinois Shines Approved Vendor or Designee. By June 2026 it had paid about $473,000 to 170 customers. The program decides eligibility, not us, and most affected homeowners have never heard of it.
Manufacturer warranty claims. Your modules and inverter carry their own warranties from the manufacturer, and those companies are still trading. Find the model and serial numbers on the inverter label and in your closing paperwork. A claim needs a diagnosis first, and the manufacturer will usually supply the replacement part and leave the labour to you.
Monitoring access. If your installer set up the monitoring account, get it into your own name now, while the manufacturer's support desk can still verify you as the owner. Enphase, SolarEdge, Fronius and SMA each have a process for handing a system to the homeowner. Without it, nobody can see what the system is doing.
If you financed the system, the lender named on your loan or lease still holds that agreement. Ask them in writing whether they have arranged service before you pay for a diagnosis elsewhere.
Nothing on this page is legal advice. A bankruptcy has deadlines, and a lawyer or the case trustee's site is the place to confirm them.
