Planning permission when not permitted development

[SolarRoofSols]

What are you guys getting charged for planning permission when pv/thermal doesn't come under permitted development?

I have been charge £195 by one council but another council wants £385 as they view it as plant/machinery.

Doesn't it depend on whether it's domestic or commercial? If it's a ground-mount in a customer's garden, it comes under "Householder Application".

£365 for ground mounts even if domestic and large sheds comes under plant and machinery as above

We paid £150 last May to put 16 panels in a customer's back garden.

They are commercial jobs, thermal mounted on a flat roof with A frames. We have done commercial before on roofs before permitted development rules changed and were charged £195. In this case, 2 diff buildings, 2 diff councils, 2 diff prices. The only difference is that 1 building is flat roof and the other pitched but that should not make a difference.
