Empty business property sudden increase in deemed standing charge

I own a currently vacant small business property on a deemed electricity tariff with BritishGas Lite. The standing charge of 27.8p/day has suddenly increased on this months bill to 113.21p/day without any notice. There is no usage at the property and the bill has now increased 400%. What are my options please? This is a wholly unreasonable charge imo and I do not wish to be tied to a fixed contract as it's possible there will be tenants soon. Do I need to accept this increased charge for the latest bill?
Thanks
Thanks

When we were with BG Business, we had a 'zero standing charge' contract with them.
