Maddox Named "Transformer Supplier of the Year" by Energy Business Review

BATTLE GROUND, Wash. — Maddox Industrial Transformer has been named the “2026 Transformer Supplier of the Year” by Energy Business Review, a leading print and digital industry publication serving the power, utilities, oil and gas, and renewable energy sectors.

The award recognizes organizations that deliver measurable impact on asset performance, operational reliability, and production efficiency across the energy value chain. Maddox earned the distinction following a three-stage evaluation process that included nominations from subscribers and industry experts, a technical assessment by the publication’s editorial team, and final review by an independent advisory board.

“This recognition is meaningful because it reflects what our team works toward every day,” said Mac Spiller, Chief Commercial Officer of Maddox Industrial Transformer. “Our goal has always been to make it faster and easier for customers to get the transformers they need. We are grateful to our customers and industry partners for nominating us, and to our employees across the country whose hard work made this recognition possible.”

Transformers for American Industry

Maddox supplies new and remanufactured padmount, substation, and dry-type transformers to commercial and industrial customers nationwide. The company has supplied transformers for major data center, renewable energy, military, manufacturing, and infrastructure projects across the United States. Maddox transformers can be found powering lumber mills, manufacturing plants, energy facilities, digital infrastructure, and other operations that support American industry.

Since commercial developers and industrial facilities can't afford to wait months for equipment, Maddox has built a nationwide network of offices, inventory yards, and warehouses designed to cut through industry bottlenecks and deliver transformers in a fraction of the typical timeframe.

Expanding to Ensure Fast Transformer Delivery

To continue delivering transformers at speed, Maddox has spent the last year steadily expanding its footprint. Recent expansions include:

• Woodruff, South Carolina — Just completed a 40-acre storage yard in addition to the other existing shops, yards, and offices in the Greenville area.
• Batavia, Ohio — Expanded from original 40,000-square-foot production facility to an additional main street campus of office buildings.
• Dyersburg, Tennessee — Just completed an 11-acre storage yard
• Houston, Texas — Opened a new office with plans to expand to an additional facility in the near future.
• Battle Ground, Washington — Added a 14,500-square-foot office, a 12,500-square-foot warehouse, and an additional two-acre storage yard.

“We continue to reinvest heavily in our people and facilities because supply chain reliability matters. The better we run our business, the faster customers can get their projects powered on, and the stronger the industrial economy in the US becomes.” Said Mac Spiller. 

Energy Business Review’s Selection Process 

Maddox’s commitment to speed, reliability, and customer service aligns closely with the criteria used by Energy Business Review in its award selection process.

The publication uses the Energy Sector Value Assessment Model to select organizations for recognition.This model evaluates not only how well a company keeps electrical equipment running and prevents downtime, but also how well it adapts to the needs of the energy sector.

The evaluation process includes nominations from the publication’s subscribers and industry experts, in-depth assessments conducted by its editorial team, and final adjudication by an independent advisory board.

Providers are judged across four core criteria: Operational Capability (30%), Business Outcomes (25%), Industry Alignment (25%), and Client Adoption and Trust (20%). 

The recognition reflects Maddox’s growing reputation as a fast, reliable transformer supplier for commercial, industrial, utility, and infrastructure projects throughout the United States.
