As you move forward on your electrification journey, you’ll likely reach a crucial turning point: realizing that your home’s electrical system—especially your panel—may not be equipped to handle the demands of a modern, all-electric lifestyle.

This step isn’t glamorous. It doesn’t come with the immediate satisfaction of a new appliance or a visible upgrade like solar panels. But it is absolutely essential. If the energy audit gave you the roadmap, and weatherization got your house ready to run more efficiently, then upgrading your electrical panel is like expanding the highway. It clears the way for everything else.
