Solar feed-in G99 Refused

[JohnnyUK]

Hi All

We're part way through a solar installation with Octopus, with a pause for the G99 (larger inverter) Application form being submitted by them.

It has come back from the network (I cannot recall who it is) as "Refused Permission", which means we can keep the 5kW inverter, but only with a limited feed-in of 3.68kW.

Anyone know why they would refuse this?

Thanks

Isn’t it something to do with overloading the network or local substation or something?

A capacity issue somewhere I guess, but even Octopus were surprised.
