Policing 515 protests since April is costing the equivalent of 23,500 officer shifts, the Met says.
As well as marching in main roads, activists have disrupted events including The Open, Wimbledon, the Ashes, the London Pride March and the Chelsea Flower Show.
The cost to the Met is on top of the £7.5m spent by the force policing JSO protest action between October and December last year. A spokesperson for Just Stop Oil said: "Matt Twist has laid out the consequences of the Policing Act for all to see: legitimate protest is now classed as crime. "This oil funded regime has us locked on for annihilation and will lock up anyone who dissents. But we will not die quietly. We will continue to resist until the government agrees to end new oil and gas."
