Thanks … I did eventually find the details for Outgoing though they don’t make it at all obvious during sign up that this is even an option. Not great for new build buyers who haven’t made a conscious decision to install solar panels and may not know what they need to do in order to benefit from them.

Anyway, I have signed up, and now I’m going through the rigmarole of the meters not being on the national database. No doubt this is something to do with the utter incompetence of Scottish Power, who with any luck I will be free of in a week’s time. I have sent photos of the meters to Octopus. Once the account is active I will action the switch to the Octopus Outgoing tariff and finally start getting paid for what I’m generating. Or at least, I’ll be ready to start getting paid once I have excess … at this time of year we have discovered it is best to time appliances like the dishwasher to operate from late morning to early afternoon and just use the solar power ourselves.
