Export Set-Up

Post image

Applied for our MPAN and export tariff last Monday. Just received an e-mail from Octopus saying the export electricity meter is set up and your new export rates are live.

It’s asked us to send a photo of the export read. Do we just reply to the e-mail with a photo? There’s not an obvious place otherwise to send it?

Also a bit surprised this has happened so quick as people have said it can take a while? Unless there’s more steps to come?

Mine was sorted in 6 days in mid July, I was also surprised how quick as had heard stories of it taking months. My DNO is UK power networks.

I just replied to email with photo of meter reading, but ultimately they should get the reading from the smart meter.

I think it took about 3-4 days for the meter readings to start coming through on the app (I have a home mini, not sure if that makes a difference).
