A Span smart panel replaces your traditional electrical panel and gives you real-time control and insight into your home’s energy use. It’s designed to work seamlessly with solar panels, battery backups, and EV chargers—making it the perfect upgrade for energy-conscious households in Onion Creek.
Key features of Span smart panels include:
- Real-time circuit control via the Span mobile app
- Smart outage management to prioritize essential devices during power loss

- EV charging optimization for smart load management
It’s the kind of upgrade that not only increases home efficiency but also adds lasting value and resilience.
