Assuming a fixed cost is per kWh makes no sense and I'm quite confused that someone upvoted it.

We have competitive supply here. The charge for distribution is fixed with regard to which energy supplier you choose, but is not fixed with regard to energy consumption.

I asked, because if I chose Octopus supply, my energy supply price per kWh would vary according to the supplier but the price per kWh for distribution would not. (And Octopus would naturally only quote the price that they are charging for the part of the total picture that they're involved with.)

Some Octopus energy customers have batteries and do this but it's a hefty investment.
