I'm just waiting for my G98 which I've been told will be done by Friday this week at the latest.
I can then submit everything to join outgoing tariff. How long does it take on average once you press submit to when you're 'accepted' and can start getting paid for what you put back into the grid

1-3 days, assuming everything is submitted correctly. Follow up with a stern phone call if not.- 10 x 400w LG + 6 x 550W SHARP BiFacial Panels + SE 3680 HD Wave Inverter + SE Optimizers. SE London.
- Triple aspect. (22% ENE/ 33% SSE/ 45% WSW)
- Viessmann 200-W on Advanced Weather Comp. (the most efficient gas boiler sold)Feel free to DM me if I can help with any energy saving!0 -
Might take a while to get an export MPAN from the DNO. Then they need 30 min meter readings for you to go on agile outgoing...
I think 3 days is probably optimistic 😅0 -

6weeks for me from application submission till confirmation from Octopus. I think Octopus are swamped with workload due to SEG, Tariff changed and price cap. Add to this the DNO who have their hands full.
For a historical perspective took me 4 weeks to be FIT registered in 2015.“Don't raise your voice, improve your argument." - Desmond Tutu
System 1 - 14 x 250W SunModule SW + Enphase ME215 microinverters (July 2015)
System 2 - 9.2 KWp + Enphase IQ7+ and IQ8AC (Feb 22 & Sep 24) + Givenergy AC Coupled inverter + 2 * 8.2KWh Battery (May 2022) + Mitsubishi 7.1 KW and 2* Daikin 2.5 KW A2A Heat Pump0 -
the company who generate the MPAN say they are taking about a week so hopefully be done in the next couple of weeks1
