Can we run this under a developer license (i.e. free) or do wee need to purchase something else?

If it is for a development environment then yes you can se dev license. If it is in prod you'll want to license the install.

    I take it then we can just get away with a standard SQL server license for production. It seems a bit overkill installing an enterprise license just to host two report server databases.

      If we get PBI report server through either premium capacity or SA can we use SQL express to host the database?
