About Greg Cornett
As President of Rhode Island Energy, I have the privilege of leading the state’s largest utility and nearly 1,400 employees who deliver energy to close to electric and gas customers. My focus is on delivering energy that is safe, reliable, and affordable—while guiding Rhode Island through one of the most dynamic transitions the industry has ever faced.With more than 25 years in the energy sector, I bring a collaborative, forward-looking approach to leadership. I work closely with policymakers, regulators, and community stakeholders to shape strategies that not only meet today’s needs, but also advance Rhode Island’s economic vitality and ambitious climate goals.I am passionate about the role utilities play as both community anchors and industry innovators. That means making smart, strategic investments in infrastructure, embracing technologies that strengthen reliability and resilience, and fostering partnerships that support the clean energy transition—not just for Rhode Island, but as part of a larger conversation about the future of energy across the country.
