There is no access to the panelboard adjacent to the meters, the access is blocked by the conduit. This is a violation of NEC Article 110.26.

Beside the numerous violations of 110.26 there are at least 4 conduit shown that are not properly supported per article 358.

What about the 3/4 " copper water line above the panel in the work space?

In addition to clearance issues, there appears to be unprotected romex wiring coming out of the top of the panel. I'm thinking it was a temporary lighting panel for construction that was never removed.

Big clearance problems.Is that a water faucet above the panel? Somebody was short on conduit support.
