[I too am stuck in “transactions on your account are being manually reviewed” limbo. I went live on the 11th December on Outgoing so I guess that is what is slowing things down (rather than the improbable number of IOG cheapslots I’ve been allocated). I’ve emailed Octopus but to-date no reply.

Maybe this is common with new export customers.

Monstrous PV generation today at Nowty Towers, a PB for 2024.
23kWh including the DC coupled system.

It happens every winter.

Needs a speech bubble: "WAKE UP, you sceptics!"
I got 2 kWhr off my west-facing roof today... (very) early days!

I have to request my export each month since I signed up, and do a manual reading and email it to them.
But it gets processed, and credited, the same day.

Its that green crap again.

Middle of winter in an electrically heated house and my IOG cheapslot to peak ratio is 99.96%, I think my best ever ratio.




Also in that same period,
Add on the export credit and the bill is £164.
Add on £46 for the Saving Sessions Octopoints and the bill is £118.
Add on my FITs and the rest of the bill is wiped out.
The Ripple rebate of £400+ buys more green crap.

Not quite net negative in kWh though , but next year with Ripple Kirk Hill and maybe Derril Water adding in, I think I will be net negative in kWh.
Not only on a yearly basis but also in the depths of winter.

1kWh of peak electric all month?

I’m happy if I’m below 1kWh per day!

My normal was about 7kWh per month peak but now I have the export tariff, no problem setting the inverter to let 20W constantly trickle out to the grid as I'll be paid for it.
