SHARON, Pa. — October 28, 2026 — JCL Energy, a full-service transformer and electrical equipment solution provider, today announced the opening of a new facility in Alvin, Texas, marking the company's second location in the state. The Alvin location joins JCL's existing operations in Sharon, Pennsylvania, and Greenville, South Carolina and the support office located in Temple, Texas.

The Alvin location gives JCL Energy a more localized presence to support emergency response and electrical infrastructure needs in Greater Houston and the broader Gulf Coast Region, as well as in West Texas and the Permian Basin. Customers served from the site will include electric utilities and cooperatives, data center developers and operators, renewable energy and battery storage developers, oil and gas producers and midstream operators, and petrochemical, industrial, and commercial facilities. The site will offer rental and sales of transformers and power distribution equipment from a deep local inventory, supported with in-house testing and repair services.

Houston is the Energy Capital of the World, and our customers here deserve a partner who is part of the community. Alvin puts JCL's people, equipment and service capability within reach of the projects driving Texas's energy growth.

Chris CampbellChris CampbellCEO, JCL Energy

Demand for transformers and field service across the Gulf Coast and West Texas is outpacing what the market can deliver. With rental equipment staged in Alvin and local crews ready to respond, our customers get faster turnaround and a team that knows the region.
