Have you just discovered this ? (and anyway I thought everywhere the domestic tariff was 34p / kwh, give or take a tiny smidgeon (depending on what small variation in the supply charge is allowed).

Of course It doesn't cost more to supply to business, however domestic power is subsidised e.g.: www.gov.uk/government/publications/energy-bills-support/energy-bills-support-factsheet-8-september-2022Edit - the EPG may not be the only subsidy at play making up that specific difference in tariff rates

domestic supply being subsidised does not answer the question... it merely gives a reason why... electricity cost has a price no matter who uses it ... if you are a business .. you are being ripped off.

You said it cost more for businesses to PAY FOR IT. Which it does. Because suppliers are being compensated to provide subsidised prices to the consumer market via the price cap. And they are not receiving same compensation for supply to business. But presumably you know all of this, unless you have spent the last 18 months as a hermit 'off grid' (oh the irony), so quite where you are going with this I guess only you know right now.

It is interesting to consider that a business has made an investment in a technology that it seems not to understand, understandable since it probably isn't the core business.
Mrs Bobo used to be an energy consultant and before she gave up came to some basic conclusions
1) there will always be periods when the "double glazing salesmen" will come for a new technology and wreck it to make a fast buck 2) if a customer is not on top of the subject then supplier selection is the most vital part of any buying decision
Just having our solar removed as part of a roof replacement and our solar engineer firmly agrees that there are still supplier idiots in the market
Good luck, but I wouldn't pay any invoices until the thing is working.
A really good point, there is a key difference between what something costs and what you pay for it.

You are asking a question about difference in PRICE to business vs domestic, then somehow morph that and dissing people's replies by commenting about comparative COST TO SUPPLY, all the time completely ignoring the fact that in the current circumstances domestic customers are benefiting from a very significant govt. subsidy which is not provided to businesses. Only you know why are are having this conversation this way, esp. given that energy subsidies and who does and doesn't get them have hardly been out of the public eye since mid last year.
