Sounds funny, considering the 22 kW and 43 kW are only 0.03 per minute. Could this indicate costs at a DC charging station while the others are AC?

It looks the same in pattern in all countries too.

It’s strange I’ll ask Porsche and see why this is the case

I thinks its an error. Ooopsie.

The split would be otherwise up to 43kW on AC then jumps with 50 kW as the lowest rung on DC

I doubt you will find a 20kW EVSE anywhere in UK. All public AC EVSEs are 3.2, 7.4, 11, 22 or 43kW...unless you've stumbled across one? Besides, pointless to use if you have a 11 kW alternative and don't have the 22kW AC onboard charger option installed.

Just another Porsche anomaly!

Funnily enough there are a few obscure chargers around. In France I have seen 24 kW CCS DC and Scotland also seem to have some?? I have never come across any though and they may be a relic from old times? I have seen some in workshops though! And I think @tigerbalm connected to one in a workshop, testing his charging?

I can not find any with the Porsche app though!

There is a public 25kW DC one at one of the fanciest castles in Ireland – Ashford Castle. As you get free charging when you stay there – I've never used it. I think it's pretty strange – but perhaps that is because I have 22kW AC.

Huh? I was there last summer and they let me use a 3.2kW AC unit and said the others were even slower. Perhaps it's a new / recent addition?

This is over by "the cottage" across the bridge from the hotel. It's been there a long time. It's run by the EasyGo network – so not owned by the property and not free.

I was there last month and they now have 6 x 22kW AC chargers too.

That old 3.6kW Tesla job out at the front – was really only good enough for my Panamera!
