Lakewood's boundaries wander, and the edges are where guesses go wrong. Near the Denver, Wheat Ridge, Golden, or Morrison lines, and around the unincorporated Jefferson County pockets that Lakewood wraps around. The provider on your street can flip from your neighbor's.

New to Lakewood, whether you landed in Belmar, Green Mountain, or a bungalow off West Colfax, here's the order to set up utilities before move-in day.
Both your electricity and your natural gas come from Xcel Energy. That held true at every address we sampled across Lakewood. Colorado doesn't offer retail energy choice, so there's no provider to shop for or switch to; whoever serves your address is simply who you get. Run your address through the lookup to confirm the details before move-in day.
That's the part that isn't uniform. Across addresses we sampled in Lakewood, water and sewer split between two providers: roughly two in three with Denver Wastewater Management and about one in three with Lakewood Water District, and which one serves a given home depends on the address. Check your specific address in the lookup. Near borders it can differ from the house next door.
Start with Xcel Energy, since it covers both electricity and gas everywhere we sampled. Get service put in your name for move-in day. Then handle water and sewer, which is a separate step and a separate provider depending on your address. Because Lakewood's water systems don't follow one map, don't assume the last resident's setup applies to you. Run your address through the lookup first, then contact each provider it returns.
For electric in Lakewood, the answer is Xcel Energy at 100% of addresses we checked.
