Distributed solar energy asset company Spruce Power Holding Corp. announced the expansion of its operating headquarters in Houston, which will support business functions.

Technology, asset operations, customer Support, and billings and collections teams will be housed in the newly expanded office located at Two Memorial City Plaza at 820 Gessner Road in Houston. The expansion of its Houston office will be over 40,000 square feet. Spruce is one of the largest tenants in the Memorial City Plaza office complex.

"This announcement comes on the heels of our corporate headquarters' relocation in Denver, with both expansions and the execution of a value-creating move from California to our long-term work homes,” Christian Fong, CEO of Spruce said in a news release.

“Houston is our largest employment base, and being able to add high-paying jobs to our Houston location underpins our commitment to the community and continued growth in Texas," he continues.

In 2019, Denver-based Spruce Power built a residential energy services solution platform for the distributed generation (DG) solar sector. Spruce's home solar assets and contracts grew about 50 percent over the past year, which represents 25,000 rooftops.

The facility represents more than a $200 million investment and will raise SEG's total annual U.S. module production capacity to approximately 6 gigawatts, according to a new release. The expansion is part of SEG’s long-term goal of becoming one of the largest 100 percent U.S.-owned module manufacturers.

The new 500,000-square-foot facility will be located on Telge Road and is expected to create 800 new jobs, according to reports.

“This new facility marks an important milestone for SEG,” Timothy Johnson, VP of operations, said in the release. “It will further strengthen our U.S. manufacturing capabilities while supporting ongoing technology innovation. The plant is designed with the flexibility to integrate next-generation technologies, including (heterojunction solar technology) as the industry evolves.”

Commercial operations at the new facility are expected to commence in Q3 2026.

SEG is also developing a 5-gigawatt ingot and wafer manufacturing facility in Indonesia. Construction on the facility is expected to begin in Q2 2026.
