Overview

Energy Incentives Are Evolving

As homes add solar panels, battery storage, EV chargers, and electric appliances, many incentive programs now reward better energy management, resilience, and efficiency.

A Smart Main Panel (SMP) helps homeowners prepare for future energy needs by managing electrical loads, supporting backup systems, and providing precise control over home energy use.

While incentives vary by location and program, an SMP may support projects that qualify for state, utility, or federal energy incentives when installed as part of a broader energy upgrade.

How SMP Supports Incentives

Built for the Future of Home Energy

Smart Main Panels provide capabilities that align with many modern energy initiatives — from electrification to grid modernization.

Whole-Home Electrification

As more homeowners switch to electric appliances and vehicles, managing energy becomes critical. An SMP is designed to handle the increased demand intelligently.

  • Electric vehicle (EV) charging
  • Heat pump integration
  • Electric water heaters
  • Induction cooking
  • Whole-home electrification upgrades

Battery & Backup Power Optimization

Smart Main Panels improve how backup systems operate, extending battery runtime and ensuring critical loads stay powered during outages.

  • Intelligent load prioritization
  • Extended battery runtime
  • Critical load management
  • Improved home resilience during outages

Energy Efficiency & Load Management

Utilities and grid operators increasingly value technologies that reduce peak demand. An SMP provides the tools to actively participate in efficiency programs.

  • Real-time electrical usage monitoring
  • Energy consumption shifting
  • Circuit-level optimization
  • Improved energy awareness and insights

Future-Ready Energy Systems

As incentive programs evolve, energy management technologies are expected to play an increasingly important role in modern homes.

  • Solar system integration
  • Battery storage compatibility
  • EV charger management
  • Virtual power plant (VPP) program support
  • Home energy management system (HEMS) ready

Designed for Solar + Battery

Engineered from the ground up to integrate with solar systems and battery storage — the technologies most commonly supported by modern energy incentive programs.

Made in the USA

Every Smart Main Panel is designed and built domestically — supporting American manufacturing and ensuring quality, compliance, and reliable availability.

UL Certified

All SMP models carry UL certification — meeting the safety and performance standards required by most incentive programs and local utility interconnection agreements.

Smart App Control

Monitor energy flow, schedule usage, and manage every circuit from your smartphone — giving you the data you need to participate in demand response and efficiency programs.

3-Year Workmanship Warranty

Every installation is backed by a 3-year workmanship warranty — giving you and your clients peace of mind long after the project is complete.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about energy incentives and how a Smart Main Panel fits into your upgrade project.

Does a Smart Main Panel itself qualify for an incentive or rebate?

Incentive eligibility depends entirely on the specific program, utility, and state requirements — and these change frequently. While an SMP may be included as part of a qualifying energy upgrade project (such as a solar-plus-storage installation), it is best to verify directly with your program administrator, utility provider, or a licensed contractor. We encourage homeowners to check the DSIRE database for the most current information.

What is the DSIRE database and how do I use it?

DSIRE (Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency) is maintained by the NC Clean Energy Technology Center and is the nation's most comprehensive source for clean energy incentive information. You can search by ZIP code at dsireusa.org to find federal, state, and utility programs available in your area, including tax credits, rebates, grants, loan programs, and more.

Can an SMP support demand response programs?

Yes. Smart Main Panels are designed to monitor and manage electrical loads at the circuit level, which can help homeowners participate in utility demand response programs. These programs typically reward customers for reducing consumption during peak grid periods. Smart scheduling, load shifting, and real-time monitoring features make an SMP a strong fit for homes looking to participate in these programs — but eligibility varies by utility and region.

Is an SMP required for a solar or battery storage installation?

A Smart Main Panel is not a hard requirement for every solar or battery installation, but it significantly simplifies and optimizes the process. By consolidating up to eight separate electrical components into one unit, an SMP reduces installation complexity, improves energy flow efficiency, and provides the smart monitoring and control capabilities that many modern systems benefit from. Note: SMP requires an approved external automatic transfer switch for battery backup.

How often do incentive programs change?

Incentive programs change frequently — sometimes monthly. Federal tax credits may be updated through legislation, state programs can be modified by regulators, and utility rebates often have funding caps that affect availability. Because of this, we strongly recommend verifying current program details directly through the DSIRE database or by contacting your utility provider before making installation decisions.

Does a Smart Main Panel include a warranty?

Yes. A 3-year workmanship warranty backs every Smart Main Panel installation. This gives homeowners and contractors confidence in the quality of the installation and ongoing support long after the project is complete. This workmanship warranty complements any applicable manufacturer warranties on the equipment itself.
