ACORE Welcomes New Senior Vice President of Communications

The American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE) announced that Stephanie Genco has joined the organization as its new Senior Vice President of Communications. 

Stephanie brings nearly 20 years of communications, campaign, and policy experience to ACORE. Most recently at Fortescue, Stephanie led the company’s North American communications around green hydrogen investment. Previously, Stephanie was a senior public affairs consultant, building multi-channel strategic communications campaign focused on educating policymakers at the federal and state level. Her work within the energy industry includes a multi-million-dollar state ballot initiative for renewable energy clients, building an advocacy coalition of domestic solar companies, and leading multi-industry campaigns on federal rulemaking.  

Stephanie brings a deep understanding of the intersection between policy, communications, and strategic advocacy. Her Capitol Hill career spans stints in House Republican Leadership, House Committees, and two cycles at the National Republican Campaign Committee, the campaign arm for House Republicans, first as an Independent Expenditure researcher in 2010, and later in 2016 as the NRCC’s Deputy Policy Director.    

In her role at ACORE, Genco will lead all of ACORE’s communications efforts, with the goal of furthering ACORE’s position as a trusted thought leader for policymakers, the energy sector, and the American people. 

“We are thrilled to have Stephanie on our team,” said ACORE President and CEO Ray Long. “Stephanie’s decades of communications expertise both in government and the private sector will be a huge asset for ACORE and our member companies as we continue our efforts to shape America’s energy future.” 

“This is a crucial time for the clean energy industry,” said Genco. “We know that a true ‘all of the above’ strategy is key to meeting this moment of increasing energy demand. I could not be more excited to join an organization focused on telling the story of how the clean energy industry is ready to ensure the U.S. is a global leader in energy innovation.”
