Solar, storage and energy services in Sylmar
Designed, permitted and installed by a Sylmar-based contractor that works in this utility territory every week — because Sylmar does not follow the same rules as the county next door.
What we do in Sylmar
Current Energy designs, installs and maintains solar, battery storage, EV charging, lighting, HVAC, roofing and electrical systems across Sylmar. Our office is at 15823 Monte St, Suite 101 in Sylmar, so this is local work rather than a territory served from somewhere else.
Typical property here: Single-family homes on larger lots, horse-property parcels, apartment and condominium buildings, light industrial along the San Fernando Road corridor, and retail and professional office.
What is different about Sylmar
This is where our office is
Our office is at 15823 Monte St in Sylmar. That is not a mailing address or a territory covered from somewhere else — the survey crew, the engineering team and the trucks are here. For a Sylmar property it means a site walk is a short drive rather than a scheduling exercise, and it means we deal with the local building department and LADWP routinely rather than occasionally.
Post-war housing and 100-amp service
A great deal of Sylmar housing was built in the decades when 100-amp service was standard and panels were specified with no spare capacity. Solar, a battery, an EV charger or a heat pump frequently runs into the electrical service before it runs into anything else. We run a load calculation during the assessment rather than discovering it on installation day.
Two jurisdictions, a few streets apart
Sylmar is City of Los Angeles. The City of San Fernando immediately to the south is a separate incorporated city with its own building department and its own permitting process. Properties a few streets apart can therefore sit under different authorities having jurisdiction, which changes timelines even when the system design is identical.

Questions we get asked
Do you serve Sylmar?
Yes. Current Energy is based at 15823 Monte St, Suite 101, Sylmar, CA 91342 and works throughout Sylmar, including Sylmar, Mission Hills, Granada Hills, Lake View Terrace, Pacoima, Porter Ranch. Solar, storage and commercial enquiries: (888) 899-9484. Home services: (818) 405-9062.
Which utility serves Sylmar, and why does it matter?
Sylmar sits inside Los Angeles city limits, so it is served by LADWP, which runs its own net-metering and interconnection program separate from the CPUC’s Net Billing Tariff. Neighbouring pockets outside the city fall under Southern California Edison and NEM 3.0, and the boundary is not where people expect it to be. It matters because the utility determines what your exported energy is worth, what the interconnection process looks like and how long permission to operate takes. Two properties a few miles apart can have genuinely different economics for the same system.
Is Current Energy actually based in Sylmar?
Yes. Our office is at 15823 Monte St, Suite 101, Sylmar, California 91342, and it is where the engineering and operations teams work. Solar, storage and commercial enquiries: (888) 899-9484. Home services: (818) 405-9062.
Is Sylmar on LADWP or Southern California Edison?
Sylmar is inside Los Angeles city limits, so it is LADWP — which runs its own net-metering and interconnection program rather than the CPUC’s Net Billing Tariff. That matters because a payback model built for an SCE customer under NEM 3.0 does not transfer. We confirm the serving utility from your bill before modelling anything.
