How OC Solar’s relationship with Irvine Company supports its growth year after year.
Orange County’s leading solar installation company, OC Solar, has doubled in size each of the past four years. The secret to its impressive growth? According to Vincent Curcie, CEO and Founder, it all comes down to the right relationships.
“At OC Solar, we build long-term relationships guided by our three core values: integrity, sustainability and quality,” says Curcie. “From the initial consultation to the final installation, we prioritize open communication, honesty, and transparency.”
These are the same qualities Curcie and his team sought in a workplace provider.
“I needed somebody that I felt like could be a good partner to help me grow, and I needed a company that I felt like I could work with for the long term, not just for the next year or two years,” says Curcie.
Establishing a long-term relationship with Irvine Company as a stable, industry-leading workplace partner has been key to enabling the organization’s continuous expansion.
“We’ve moved three different times in the last four years, and the only reason why we’re able to accomplish that is because we’re with Irvine Company,” says Curcie. “We love the quality and reputation of Irvine Company and their willingness to work with us so we’re never locked down or confined.”
“I needed a partner to help me grow that I could work with for the long term, and that has proved to be invaluable.”

Because of Irvine Company’s Flex+ program, OC Solar was able to move from a workspace the team eventually outgrew at Venture Park to the company’s latest expanded headquarters at Innovation Office Park, all within a matter of weeks.
Most landlords require clients to commit to long-term leases, but that can be incredibly difficult for the business, Curcie explains.
“Irvine Company wants to see us be successful,” he adds. “As our company continues to grow, they have the resources, tools and infrastructure to accommodate our growth. They’ve been an awesome partner.”
When it came to selecting their newest HQ space, Innovation Office Park was a natural fit for OC Solar’s new HQ space, reflecting the company’s commitment to sustainability and quality.
“When we came and toured Innovation, there was really no runner up for us,” says Megan Torres, Director of Administration at OC Solar. “We knew we wanted to be here. The indoor-outdoor experience, the amenities that we were able to offer our employees, and the natural light that our office has was just something that we didn’t see at any other property. The collaboration that we get between our team members in this space is something that people and other companies honestly envy.”
The future for OC Solar is bright.
