The utility request should reflect the project's actual connected and calculated loads, including electrification, EV charging, mechanical systems, pools, exterior heating and resilient-power equipment.
Utility coordination can require electrical one-lines, meter and switchgear information, site plans, proposed routes and equipment locations. Regent5 develops and coordinates the owner-side information needed for engineering review.
Regent5 can coordinate the service application and respond to utility engineering requests through the project. Final utility requirements, available capacity and schedules remain subject to PG&E review.
Transformer placement, underground routing, meter location and service equipment can affect architecture, civil work and landscaping. These decisions should be coordinated before the site design becomes difficult to change.
Regent5 translates the utility process into actionable project decisions: required equipment space, route assumptions, owner-side trenching, schedule dependencies and electrical design changes for the architect and builder.
Engineering queues, transformer work and utility construction can affect project schedules. Regent5 tracks the process and coordinates owner-side work, but utility completion dates and capacity decisions remain controlled by the serving utility.
This process applies to PG&E electric territory. Palo Alto projects use City of Palo Alto Utilities and its own electrical-service requirements. Regent5 verifies the serving utility and follows the correct process for each property.
