Our take

SPAN helps homeowners looking to improve their energy resilience by replacing electric panels, many of them decades old, with a flexible smart panel that helps users monitor and control their energy usage from a single app.

Founded in 2018, SPAN has made great strides in both price and technological development and won the International Builders' Show 2022 Best Energy Efficient Product award for its Gen 2 smart Panel. Alongside this, significant funding rounds have propelled product development, including a future-looking integration of its equipment with that of solar inverter, battery, and EV charger manufacturers.

This fast-developing and innovative home-energy solution directly responds to rising demand for efficiency, a momentum first highlighted by SPAN's 2024 partnership with PulteGroup. That progress has continues with the launch of two new models (the SPAN Panel MAIN 16 and MLO 24) which expand the company's lineup and offer more affordable, flexible options for projects like solar, EV charging, and home electrification. Together, with existing panels, these additions reinforce SPAN's mission to deliver, smart, scalable energy systems.
