NO, cost per kwh does not change....the caveat in your statement is "adequate wiring".
Real world wires have resistance and you will lose a small but measurable amount. The voltage drop as a percentage of the total becomes smaller and smaller as the voltage goes up.
Let's look at 100 feet of 10 AWG wire carrying 5 amps. At 110 volts I lose 1 volt at the end for .91% voltage loss. At 440 I still lose 1 volt but my percent loss drops to .23%. This is with a 10 AWG copper wire at .0009989 Ohm/foot.
It just depends on what you mean by adequate wiring. To cut the loss in half in this example you could go to 7 AWG wire. At some point it gets ridiculous.

Today's Featured Article - It's Alright Where It Is! - by Anthony West. I have a tale of a different kind to tell. Whilst rooting in the hedge bottoms this week I had cause to visit Chapel lane Farm, the home of an eccentric gentleman by the name of Austin Kendall. I had heard rumours that an old Case Model C was languishing away in the back of one of the outbuildings there. So off I went in search of what would turn out to be a very rare and unusual tractor. Mr Kendall is an excitable chap to say the least. He is amongst the last of a dying breed of farmer who
