I screwed up two days in a row, Monday my code just didn't work, so I did it manually, yesterday I hadn't fixed a bug I noticed Monday, so ended up importing 1.2kWh, luckily I noticed quite quickly and fixed it.

Are they just seeing how low they can go???

So many people don't bother at all now, we export far less than we used to as now we'll still cook dinner, watch TV etc.

but the SavingsSessions website calculator has already done it...
I guess that Octopus have a much bigger number to process and also more serious/rigorous QC applied to it as it affects the cash value of the contracts.
2.0 kW/4.62 MWh pa in Ripples, 4.5 kWp W-facing pv, 9.5 kWh batt
30 solar thermal tubes, 2MWh pa in Stockport, plus Congleton and Kinlochbervie Hydros,

I’ve never understood why it takes so long. Luckily Octopus has an API so you can crunch the data yourself:

https://savingsessions.streamlit.app/
12x 340W JA Solar panels (4.08kWp)
3x 380W JA Solar panels (1.14kWp)
6x 2.4kWh Pylontech batteries (14.4kWh)
LuxPower inverter/charger

(Artist formally known as ******, well it should be obvious enough to those for whom such things are important.)
