About
All-Electric California (AEC) has guided buildings over 100 years old past the AIA 2030 Commitment benchmarks for new construction — a concrete measure of their electrification and efficiency capabilities in the Oakland, CA market. Operating as a licensed design-build firm with credentials spanning Architecture, Electrical, Plumbing, HVAC, and General Contracting (CA Contractor License #1078011, Architectural License #C-39711), AEC brings a rare multi-discipline approach to commercial and institutional building electrification. For facility managers and property owners managing aging commercial assets, AEC specializes in replacing gas-fired systems with high-performance electric alternatives, redesigning power distribution and panelboards to support new electrical loads, and integrating EV charging infrastructure as part of a broader sustainability strategy. Their systems design methodology is oriented around solar energy compatibility, meaning electrical upgrades are engineered with future PV integration in mind — a critical consideration for Oakland and Bay Area property owners navigating California's evolving Title 24 and NEC compliance requirements. AEC's project portfolio spans retrofit work on existing office, multifamily, mixed-use, retail, and institutional buildings, with a focus on reducing embodied carbon while improving operational efficiency. Their approach to low-voltage, lighting system upgrades, and building controls aligns directly with the decarbonization mandates increasingly written into California municipal codes and tenant sustainability requirements. The firm self-reports use of solar-charged EVs for material transport and prioritizes low-carbon building materials, signaling operational alignment with LEED and WELL documentation needs. Facility managers evaluating electrification pathways — particularly gas-to-electric conversions, panel capacity upgrades, or EVSE deployment on existing commercial properties — will find AEC's design-build licensure structure reduces coordination risk across trades.
