The part about two standing charges is not correct, you can get a tariff with no standing charge but a higher KWH cost, if they are only using the garage power for lights and power for the odd power tool it will probably make negligible difference, this would be different if they were going to run a freezer etc in there.
I had a similar arrangement at a previous house and had a meter in a garage in the block used to cost me about £2 a year if that! The utility company have to charge a standing charge but they can set this to zero in any case so if your friend spoke to their proposed supplier they would probably be able to arrange this and get both billed on the same agreement/contract.
