correct, the hoops the consumer has to jump through are typically
- install PV
- Get a MSC
- Get a letter of authorisation from you DNO
- Ask you supplier for export tariff
- wait for export mpan
- wait for smart meter to be commissioned with export mpan
- wait for supplier to figure out how to read your export data
- wait for their (sometimes quarterly payment cycle to complete)
- calculate if your payment was correct
- raise a compliant (potentially)
Only party joking but you won’t get paid for any export between steps 2-6
