Overview
Span makes a smart electrical panel that serves as a centralized home energy hub. The SPAN Panel replaces a traditional breaker box and is controlled through the SPAN Home App, letting you monitor and manage every circuit in real time, while integrating with solar, home batteries, and EV chargers. It includes circuit-level control and outage-mode optimization that prioritizes essential loads to extend battery life by about 40%. The goal is to help homeowners save on energy costs, increase resilience during outages, and enable easier adoption of home electrification without costly utility upgrades.
