<grabs screenshot of FAQ>Less than you might think in a regulated market. They're obliged to be fair to customers, and if you say clearly that export is payable in the FAQ, it would be unfair to have terms override that.
Odds are they'd lose if it went to OFGEM.
I’m always open to being corrected. However it’s better to have a greater data set than just oneYes but it doest it doesn't matter to you since you already know the answer

Thanks for your input, have a great dayBut you are not though are you?... when you ask the question and dispute the answer with assumed facts. Again, you are reputing all the answers with your own... so again, what does it matter to you?
Thing is, our daily usage is a wee bit higher than one PW can cover from an overnight charge. So if there's anything left by late evening, it came from our solar panels, just deferred by a few hours.its not going to waste if you are selling your solar a a higher price than what you charged the battery from the grid though is it?
But clearly the time of 23:30 matters to you and you would have been exporting all your sun during the dayThing is, our daily usage is a wee bit higher than one PW can cover from an overnight charge.

That’s interesting. I’ve only tried it out for the last couple of evenings and was doing a rough calculation of when I needed to switch the setting to “Everything” to ensure I didn’t dump too much and get charged at some peak rate.I switch PW's Energy Exports setting to "Everything" at around 9-10pm to earn a few more pennies. PW does a decent job of adjusting export power in order to hit the standby reserve exactly on 11:30pm.
My evening export is timed to start at 23:30 - as that’s when local EV demand typically exists (and grid usually not so green).
It says Agile but surely that would include IO?
Or am I still interpreting this all incorrectly
So.. you have also charged the battery overnight plus supplemented with solar during the day because your battery is too small?... and then discharged overnight again?Yes, what’s left after evening household consumption.
I wonder why Octopus are suggesting you can? That whole FAQ statement seems to be obsolete if you can’t export from a battery if you don’t have solar. Are Octopus really that ignorant?You just keep confusing yourself.
You cant get an MPAN for export from having a battery alone
Yes very contradictory. The people writing these documents obviously don’t talk to each other.
The T&Cs probably hold more weight though if they really didn’t want to pay out.
You can have a different "export tariff" with a battery alone just not with the battery you have and not the export tariff that you have now with your MPANI wonder why Octopus are suggesting you can? That whole FAQ statement seems to be obsolete if you can’t export from a battery if you don’t have solar. Are Octopus really that ignorant?
Because you don't need an MPAN to be able to export, you only need the MPAN to get PAID for the export. Subtle difference.I wonder why Octopus are suggesting you can?

Nope, you've lost me now!You can have a different "export tariff" with a battery alone just not with the battery you have and not the export tariff that you have now with your MPAN
It does appear that way doesn't it.I read the FAQ as being their policy now, and the T&Cs as being written so they can change policy if too many people behave in a unhelpful way. For example if 1000s of Tesla powerwalls started to automatically export just before cheap rate.
