Electric System Installation Fees

St. Charles owns and operates its own Electric Utility. Building owners or developers pay the actual cost of electric facilities required to service the property. These facilities are owned by the St. Charles Electric Utility and may be installed by the Utility, the owner or others. The Electric Utility will design the system and identify construction responsibility for each component. The design process will also estimate the Utility's installation cost prior to issuance of a permit. The applicant pays the Utility estimated cost at the time of permit issuance. If the actual cost is less, a refund will be issued. If the actual cost is more, the owner will be billed for the difference.
