About JCL

Our Story

What started with just transformers grew into a broader way to support the people who buy, maintain, and depend on them.

How we've grown

ONE CUSTOMER AT A TIME

We’ve built these capabilities to support transformers from purchase through maintenance, repair, and replacement.

A Different Approach

JCL Energy was founded to make buying transformers easier. By focusing on responsiveness, technical expertise, and customer service, we set out to simplify an industry experiencing long lead times and complex procurement.

Growing With Our Customers

As projects became more complex and lead times increased, JCL invested heavily into an expansive inventory to support the rapidly growing grid demand.

Keeping Projects Moving

JCL began offering short- and long-term rentals by putting available inventory to work for temporary equipment needs across a range of applications.

Supporting Startup

Delivering a transformer was only part of the project. Customers increasingly asked JCL to perform testing and commissioning to ensure equipment was ready for service before energization.
