WASHINGTON, D.C. – The American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE) announced today that Jeremy Horan has joined the organization as its new Vice President of Government Affairs.

Horan joins ACORE following nearly 20 years of service in the U.S. Congress and executive branch, where he worked extensively to advance and defend clean energy policies. He most recently served as Director of Congressional and Public Affairs for the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security.

“We are thrilled to have Jeremy on our team,” said ACORE President and CEO Ray Long. “Jeremy’s deep government expertise and firsthand understanding of political processes and procedures will be a huge asset for ACORE and its member companies as we continue our efforts to expand America’s clean energy reach.”

Additionally, Lesley Hunter is now serving as ACORE’s Senior Vice President of Policy and Engagement. Hunter has been with the organization for more than 15 years, and in this role will oversee all of ACORE’s policy work and the development of clean energy resources and analysis.
