SPAN Smart Panel

The SPAN Smart Panel itself has a manufacturer’s list price, and total installed cost varies based on your home’s existing electrical setup, the size of your current panel, and whether you’re adding it alongside solar or battery storage.

For Portland homeowners with solar, battery storage, an EV, or anyone who’s planning to add them, SPAN typically pays for itself through smarter energy management, extended battery life, and simplified installations.
