DNO request

My solar panels have been fitted and already generating quite a bit.
I have my MCS -  i have been informed that the email regarding the DNO has been sent. Does anyone know generally how long these are taking to get a response. Obviously i need before I can sort an outgoing tariff.

    The only answer is "it depends".
    If you post again on the "Green & Ethical" forum and tell them your electricity region you'll probably find someone who can give a better answer.

    It took my DNO 2 months to review the commissioning paperwork and respond. It then took the supplier another month to get an export MPAN from the DNO.
  • From my records, it looks like my G98 notification took 2-3 weeks to approve, and then it took another 2-3 weeks for my first SEG payment. This was spring 2021, though. Before energy joined the world crises.
