About Us

Our Company

OCI Energy is a leader in utility-scale solar and battery energy storage system (BESS) projects. From siting to construction and beyond, we develop cleaner, more sustainable, and reliable energy that helps power the grid. We locate land, connect with landowners, pull all the required permits, conduct all environmental screenings, studies, and testing, create the preliminary design, and advance the project to construction ready.

Our long and successful history in Texas includes projects that are operational, under construction, or under development, and we’re just getting started. OCI Energy is actively expanding across the U.S.

Our award-winning team is driven by a shared belief in the power of renewable energy, creating a greener environment, collaborating with the right partners, engaging with landowners, and giving back to our community.
