Abstract

Residential electrical panels are an essential piece of safety equipment for delivering electricity throughout homes. While the electrical panel market is well established in most parts of the world, growing residential electrical demand is likely to drive growth in the market over the next decade. Globally, consumers are installing more and more electric loads in the home, including electric appliances, EV chargers, heat pumps, and air conditioners. This behavior is likely to drive demand for electrical panels with higher capacity, more circuit spaces, subpanels, and smart panel technologies—all of which are expected to contribute to revenue growth.

Over the next 10 years, smart panel technologies are likely to drive the greatest change in the electrical panel market. These technologies include both smart panels, which are whole panels designed to replace an entire existing panel, and individual panel components like smart circuit breakers, energy monitors, and load sharing devices. This report provides an in-depth overview of the different types of smart panel technologies and their current and future use cases. It also evaluates the market size for smart panel technologies relative to traditional panels, and how these relative sizes are likely to change over the next decade.

This Guidehouse Research report analyzes the global market for residential electrical panels across three key segments: technology type (traditional panel equipment, smart panel technology), building type (single-family detached, multi-unit residential), and global region (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Middle East & Africa). Global market forecasts estimate revenue, broken out by segment, from 2025 to 2034, and include an evaluation of the market drivers, barriers, and trends unique to each global region.
