Utility Applications in Sunnyvale
Sunnyvale sits in Silicon Valley Power territory, a municipal utility with its own application forms, standards, and review cadence — none of which match PG&E's process.
What's different here
Silicon Valley Power Application Quirks
- 01
SVP uses municipal construction standards, not the PG&E Greenbook. Applying PG&E assumptions here gets submissions rejected.
- 02
ADU service decisions — separate meter versus shared service — are handled differently and need to be settled before filing.
- 03
Review timelines are generally shorter than PG&E, but documentation requirements are stricter up front.
- 04
Coordination with the City of Sunnyvale building department is tightly linked to the utility review.
