8 tools expose this connector's capabilities to your AI agent.

get_billing_data

Data is available by ZIP code and customer segment. Use this to analyze energy affordability, compare costs across regions, or identify rate impact on customers. Optional zipCode and year filters. Get billing data and average costs from PG&E public datasets

get_usage_by_customer_type

Shows total consumption for Residential, Commercial, Industrial, and Agricultural sectors. Use this to understand the energy consumption distribution across different customer categories. Optional dataType ("electric"/"gas") and year filters. Get energy usage broken down by customer segment (residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural)

compare_regions

Returns side-by-side usage figures (kWh and therms), customer counts, and average bills for each region. Use this to identify regional differences in energy consumption, support geographic targeting for efficiency programs, or compare urban vs. rural usage patterns. ZIP codes are comma-separated (e.g., "94102,94103,94104"). Optional dataType and year filters. Compare energy usage data between multiple ZIP codes/regions

get_electricity_by_zip

Returns monthly or annual usage figures broken down by geographic area. Use this to compare electricity usage across neighborhoods, identify high-consumption areas, or support energy efficiency targeting. Optional year filter. Get electricity consumption data for specific ZIP codes in PG&E service area

get_gas_by_zip

Returns monthly or annual gas usage figures by geographic area. Use this to analyze heating demand patterns, compare gas usage across regions, or identify electrification opportunities. Optional year filter. Get natural gas consumption data for specific ZIP codes in PG&E service area

get_monthly_usage

Data is organized by ZIP code, month, year, and customer segment (Residential, Commercial, Industrial, Agricultural). Returns kWh for electric and therms for gas. Use this to analyze consumption patterns over time. Optional filters: dataType ("electric" or "gas"), customerType, zipCode (5-digit), and year (YYYY). Get monthly energy consumption data by ZIP code and customer segment from PG&E public datasets

get_savings_data

Includes program participation counts, kWh/therms saved, program costs, and cost-effectiveness metrics by program type. Use this to evaluate program ROI, compare effectiveness across initiatives, or identify high-impact efficiency strategies. Optional programType and year filters. Get energy efficiency program savings data from PG&E

get_yearly_trends

Shows how electricity and gas usage has changed over multiple years. Use this to identify long-term patterns, growth/decline in energy demand, and seasonal variations. Optional dataType filter ("electric" or "gas"). Get yearly energy consumption trends from PG&E public data

Show monthly electricity usage by customer type.

Monthly electricity usage breakdown: Residential avg 650 kWh/month ($95), Commercial avg 4,200 kWh/month ($580), Industrial avg 45,000 kWh/month ($4,800), Agricultural avg 12,000 kWh/month ($1,100). Residential represents 35% of total consumption, Commercial 40%, Industrial 15%, Agricultural 10%.

Compare ZIP codes 94102, 94301, and 95054.

Regional comparison: 94102 (SF Mission): 5.2M kWh/month, 42K customers, avg $138 bill. 94301 (Palo Alto): 4.8M kWh/month, 28K customers, avg $165 bill. 95054 (Santa Clara): 6.1M kWh/month, 35K customers, avg $152 bill. Palo Alto has highest per-customer usage despite fewer customers, likely due to larger homes and higher income.

Show yearly energy consumption trends.

Yearly trends (2020-2024): 2020: 82,400 GWh (pandemic dip), 2021: 85,100 GWh (+3.3%), 2022: 87,800 GWh (+3.2%), 2023: 86,200 GWh (-1.8%, mild weather), 2024: 89,500 GWh (+3.8%, data center growth). Gas trends: declining 2% annually due to electrification and heat pump adoption.
