Eric Thumma
Head of U.S., Corio Generation
Eric joined Corio in July 2023 as the USA Country Manager. He has 17 years of experience in the renewable energy sector with a wind energy focus. Prior to joining Corio, he was Vice President of New Business, Offshore for Avangrid Renewables where he oversaw commercial and development initiatives for Park City Wind, Commonwealth Wind, and Kitty Hawk Wind. He also served as a member of the Vineyard Wind One executive committee. From 2007 to 2018 he participated in the policy, origination, and development of approximately 2,000 MW of onshore wind farms in seven states. Before joining Avangrid Renewables, as Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection Director of Energy and Deputy Secretary for Pollution Prevention and Compliance Assistance, Eric was instrumental in shaping Pennsylvania's emerging clean energy programs, most notably the Alternative Energy Portfolio Standards Act which jumpstarted renewable energy investment in the Commonwealth.
