The last 48 months
Explore the chart. Hover, focus or select any point to see its exact values.
Each month shows the version of Outgoing Octopus Agile you could actually have signed up to then, so the line follows the tariff through its successive versions rather than any one product code. Older versions carry on publishing rates for months after they stop selling; those are not averaged in, because nobody could buy them. Drawn from the stored daily rollups across every payment method the tariff publishes; where a tariff publishes more than one, the rates above show the direct-debit one and this line sits between them.

There is no price cap comparison on this page. The cap limits what a supplier can charge you, not what it pays you for export, so comparing an export rate against it would compare against a number that does not apply.

Best fit
Works best if
- Your usage or export can respond to changing half-hourly prices.
Check carefully
Watch out for
- Export rates are payments, not discounts to subtract from an assumed import bill.
Pairing
Compatible export choices
- This is an export product; verify which import tariff Octopus permits it to be paired with.
Make the final check
How to verify or switch
- Check the exact tariff name, product version, regional quote, eligibility and current terms with Octopus Energy.
- Use OctoTariffs history and calculators as evidence, not as a supplier quote or guarantee of future cost.

About Outgoing Octopus Agile
Outgoing Octopus Agile pays you a half-hourly rate for the electricity you send to the grid, and that rate follows the wholesale market in the same way the import Agile tariff does. Rates for the following day are published in the afternoon, so a battery or a smart inverter can be told to hold power back and release it into the best-paying half hours, typically the evening peak when demand is highest and generation is scarcest. Because the rate moves every thirty minutes, what you earn depends as much on when you export as on how much you export.
