Commercial rates may be on a demand meter. Best to call them for how they prorate your usage.

ok, understood.

Just to add to this question, what is a utility 'preferred rate', when related to EV charging stations? What does a preferred rate mean?

In this context, "preferred rate" means "We're going to give customer 'A' a lower rate than everyone else, and let the remaining customers subsidize him".

It's analogous to "I can get it for you wholesale". :D
