If the meter claims to read kWh, then you can take it to the bank that it 
does in fact read kWh.  Most revenue meters are able to measure the real 
power being used directly without external pf correction.  Tariffs for 
industry often require additional metering if there is unusual load 
connected.  Very low pf can be an issue because of the impact on system 
voltage.  The possibility of high, short-term demand often incurs an 
additional tariff where you have to pay based on the highest 'peak' during
a 
billing cycle.  It sounds like this is what you have.
