They charge the penalty by measuring current not power.


Power meters measure watts, not amps. An induction disk meter is very
good
at measuring watts, at almost any power factor. Utilities install meters
on
many industrial customers that measure watts, and volt*amps (and maybe
power
factor and/or vars). This is where the power factor penalty comes in.
