OneLab is SPOC’s joint-development environment where customers and SPOC work side by side to ideate, design, prototype, and validate new-to-the-world power and control solutions.
Not isolated engineering experiments. Real systems built with the intention of changing the world.
A framework for what doesn’t exist … yet.
Innovation isn’t a function, it’s our operating model. For more than two decades, we’ve partnered with customers to solve complex power challenges through advanced conversion and automation solutions that drive efficiency, resilience, and measurable impact.
We believe progress happens when expertise meets curiosity, when experienced engineers sit shoulder to shoulder with customers to rethink what’s possible. From first conversation to final commissioning and lifecycle support, our OneLab process is built around a singular objective: deliver intelligent, high-performance power solutions that make energy more reliable, more efficient, and ready for what’s next.
This series spotlights the people and discipline behind that work and the collaborative process that turns bold ideas into operational reality.

Problem Discovery and Opportunity
“What SPOC really does is help customers de-risk new technologies—turning bold ideas into scalable, real-world solutions.”
Every meaningful innovation begins with disciplined listening. In this phase, Chief Technologist Ben Gully leads conversations that go beyond surface symptoms to uncover the operational, environmental, and economic realities our customers face across industries like marine, oil & gas, mobile power, and data centers. By identifying the high-impact challenges, especially those that legacy solutions have failed to address, SPOC aligns engineering effort with true business value. This is where partnership is established and direction is set. Drawing on decades of experience in power electronics, Ben and the OneLab team work from a blank slate, collaborating closely with customers to design innovative technologies that help organizations confidently navigate complex challenges and adopt new solutions.
