01 Thesis

Know before
you build.

Every property has limits.

Power, service, infrastructure — there’s a point where things stop working cleanly.

Most projects find that out too late.

We help you understand what your property can actually support — before it costs you.

02 The Question

One service.
Every system.

ADUs, EV charging, electrification, solar, battery storage — it all comes back to one electrical service.

On paper, everything fits. In the field, things collide — at permitting, at utility review, or partway into construction.

Most of these conflicts are visible months before anyone breaks ground.

  • What your service can really carry
  • Where the constraints actually are
  • How PG&E will likely respond
  • How the systems work together
03 Method

Five questions,
answered early.

A focused review that resolves the variables before they become problems on site.

You leave with a clear direction on service size, system layout, and whether an upgrade is actually needed.

Service Sufficiency

Whether the existing service is genuinely adequate — or only adequate on paper.

Pre-Design

Utility Constraints

PG&E queue times, transformer capacity, and the limits of your service drop.

Site Reality

Load Structuring

How EV, ADU, solar, battery, and electrification all share one service.

Integration

Real Usage Data

When we can pull it, real consumption shows how the property actually behaves.

Empirical

Upgrade Necessity

Whether a service upgrade is truly required — or one you can avoid.

Capital Decision

When real PG&E interval data is available, we use it — it tells us how the property actually performs, not how the panel is labeled.

04 Timing

When to bring us in.

Most service upgrades, delays, and redesigns are avoidable — if they’re caught early enough.

Before plans are finalized

Before committing to a service upgrade

Before installing solar or battery systems

Before adding multiple new loads

Before any major electrical decision

Early clarity keeps the project intact.

05 Practice

Built,
not theorized.

Two decades in the field — what actually performs once it’s built, inspected, and turned on.

20+
Years as a contractor
Hundreds
Solar and battery systems installed
Thousands
EV charging installations
Thousands
Load studies completed
Bay Area
Permitting expertise across every jurisdiction

Hands-on across PG&E territory — from city service drops to hillside homes and rural transformer queues.

06 Engage

Establish direction.

Send your plans, or just a short note about the project. You’ll get a clear read on capacity, the constraints worth knowing, and where to go from here.
