Fuel rods manufactured by Global Nuclear Fuel to be evaluated at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

5 min read

WILMINGTON, North Carolina (August 13, 2025) – High burnup fuel rods, manufactured by Global Nuclear Fuel (GNF, a GE Vernova-led joint venture with Hitachi, Ltd.) have been delivered to the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) for examination after commercial operation.

The shipment contained rods from GNF2 assemblies that were initially loaded into a U.S. nuclear power plant for two cycles of operation. In close coordination with the plant operator, the assemblies were redesignated as high burnup lead use assemblies through GNF’s U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approved licensing process and then reloaded for an additional cycle to achieve operation in the reactor beyond current NRC licensing limits. PNNL is analyzing the rods to determine the impact of the additional cycles on the fuel and cladding performance.   

“The examination of these rods is the next step in our continuous drive to develop higher efficiency fuels that are safer and more reliable,” said Craig Ranson, Installed Base CEO, GE Vernova Hitachi Nuclear Energy. “We are proud to be part of this collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy, PNNL and our utility partners to benefit the entire industry.”

“This is a significant milestone for our Accident Tolerant Fuel program,” said Frank Goldner, the Accident Tolerant Fuel federal program manager in the Office of Nuclear Energy. “The development of this fuel could further support the Trump Administration’s executive order to facilitate five gigawatts of power uprates at existing power plants by 2030 and high burnup fuels could be a big part of that.”

“This delivery represents a rare and valuable opportunity,” said Mark Nutt, director of PNNL’s nuclear energy market sector. “We look forward to realizing the full scientific potential of this material—that’s an area where PNNL is especially capable, given our multidisciplinary strengths. The resulting research could help achieve several important goals in service to the nation and go a long way toward providing abundant and reliable energy to the grid allowing for US energy dominance.”

The fuel rods were manufactured at GNF’s Wilmington, NC facility. Evaluation of the rods will help provide GNF and DOE with valuable information about high burnup fuel, a key goal of DOE’s Accident Tolerant Fuel (ATF) program.

High burnup fuel is expected to improve fuel cycle economics and further support power uprates for commercial nuclear power plants by enabling fuel to remain in the reactor core for longer periods of time while also operating at higher efficiency.

It is anticipated that the need for fewer bundles over time will enhance nuclear safety and reduce the spent fuel generated for long-term storage. The post-irradiation fuel rod examinations to be performed by PNNL support GNF’s development, engineering and licensing efforts to ensure the continued safe and reliable performance of fuel under expanded operating conditions.

The fuel shipped to PNNL is the same design that will be used in the initial core designs of the GVH BWRX-300 small modular reactor. The data obtained through this program will be used to support future potential economic improvements in BWRX-300 fuel cycle designs, including extending fuel cycle lengths to 36 to 48 months.

GE Vernova and Crusoe announce major 29-unit aeroderivative gas turbine deal to deliver power to AI data centers

6 min read
  • 29 GE Vernova LM2500XPRESS* aeroderivative gas turbine packages are expected to help meet Crusoe’s fast-growing energy needs

  • Units will be equipped with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology to mitigate emissions, making them among the lowest emitting gas turbine technologies available today

  • Units can work in concert or independently, providing massive flexibility to provide needed power quickly 

ATLANTA (July 22, 2025) - GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) and Crusoe, the industry’s first vertically integrated AI infrastructure provider, today announced a significant deal to deliver 29 units of GE Vernova’s breakthrough LM2500XPRESS aeroderivative gas turbine packages to Crusoe AI data centers.

The announced order of 19 units, booked in June 2025, builds on the first series of 10 units Crusoe ordered in December 2024, and combined, is expected to provide nearly 1GW of electricity. These orders highlight GE Vernova’s ability to provide flexible and efficient power to energy intense data centers supporting AI applications.

"AI's exponential growth demands rapidly deployable power solutions. Crusoe’s capabilities as an energy-first digital infrastructure builder have positioned us well to take the issue of power into our own hands by rapidly building and operating power plants alongside AI datacenters. With their flexible and efficient technology, GE Vernova power generation equipment was an ideal choice to enable power plant strategies across Crusoe’s growing datacenter development portfolio," said Cully Cavness, co-founder, president and COO of Crusoe. “We’re building AI factories at record speed, and GE Vernova’s technology is a key enabler, significantly accelerating the path to energization for our customers and partners.”

These aero units provide the flexibility and reliability of modern, efficient jet engines used by airlines around the world thousands of times per day. Just like the throttle of an airplane, these units can ramp up and down rapidly. The already low emissions from these units are further reduced by SCR technology. This technology removes emissions through a catalytic converter transforming nitrogen oxides into water vapor and nitrogen, producing 90% lower emissions than traditional gas or diesel-powered reciprocating engines with little to no methane slip.

“This project clearly illustrates our ability to provide the right solutions for data centers and power applications of all sizes and scales,” said Pablo Koziner, GE Vernova’s Chief Commercial and Operations Officer. “From a single aero unit producing ~35 megawatts to this 29-unit project, to our industry leading HA heavy duty gas turbines to small modular nuclear reactors, we have the full suite of generation options to help meet today’s and tomorrow’s energy needs.”

LM2500XPRESS units

The LM2500XPRESS units are engineered for swift and straightforward site installation, with 95 percent factory assembly into simplified modules. A single 35-megawatt LM2500XPRESS aero unit has a higher power density, reliability and availability when compared to other technologies in prime or standby applications and the capacity to offer savings on real estate, switchgear, transformers, and overall site footprint. Each of GE Vernova’s LM2500XPRESS, dual fuel, power packages is comprised of a LM2500* aeroderivative gas turbine, gas compressor, and emissions control system, and is capable of starting independent of the power grid with five-minute fast start capability.

GE Vernova Adding 250 New Jobs as Part of Pennsylvania Factory Expansion to Manufacture More Critical Grid Technologies

6 min read
  • New jobs at company’s Charleroi, PA factory will help manufacture additional high voltage switchgear products essential to operation of the country’s electric grids

  • GE Vernova has now announced plans to create a total of 1,750 new U.S. jobs and to make $680 million in U.S. investments since January

  • Company also has secured an order to provide seven of its high efficiency natural gas turbines to the Homer City, PA Energy Campus

Over next two years company creating approximately 700 new jobs across multiple factories

and investing up to $100 million in Pennsylvania

 

Cambridge, MA (July 15, 2025) – As energy demand continues to surge, GE Vernova (NYSE: GEV) plans to add 250 new jobs over the next two years at the company’s leading grid solutions factory in Charleroi, PA.

The new roles will help manufacture more high voltage switchgear products, which are critical components for stable and reliable operation of the nation’s electrical grids.

GE Vernova now plans to invest up to $100 million in Pennsylvania over the next two years, adding approximately 700 new jobs across multiple factories in the state that will help modernize the grid for economic growth, strengthen domestic supply chains, and boost national security.

This new Charleroi factory expansion builds on the company’s $600 million multi-year investment announced in January, originally expected to create a total of 1,500 new jobs across numerous U.S. factories.

“Powering the grid is at the core of powering America’s economy,” said Scott Strazik, CEO of GE Vernova. “These new jobs and investment reflect our ongoing commitment to not only building critical grid infrastructure with American workers, but reindustrializing Pennsylvania’s proud manufacturing legacy. They will also help strengthen our domestic supply chain, improve national security, and boost global competitiveness by closing a crucial gap.”

“We are investing in Charleroi and our advanced grid technology because it complements the investments we've made in power generation,” Strazik continued. “For the US to lead in energy, manufacturing critical domestic grid infrastructure is just as important generation.”

In addition to the new investment in its Charleroi facility, GE Vernova also announced it has secured a full order to provide seven of its high efficiency 7HA.02 natural gas turbines to the Homer City Energy Campus. The facility, once the largest coal plant in Pennsylvania, will provide up to 4.4GW of electricity to power what will become a more than 3,200-acre natural gas-powered data center campus, designed to meet the growing artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC) needs of the innovative technology companies shaping America’s digital future. The Homer City Energy Campus is expected to be completed in 2027. ***

“The Homer City project shows what smart energy investments can achieve — delivering more reliable, affordable power for all, creating thousands of skilled jobs, and positioning Pennsylvania to help lead the next era of AI,” Strazik added.

The approximately $100 million of new investments in Pennsylvania over the next two years are part of a larger $9 billion cumulative global capex and R&D investment plan through 2028 that was announced at the company’s Investor Update in December 2024.

Currently GE Vernova’s technology helps produce more than half of the power in the United States, and the company has more than 18,000 workers across 50 states and 18 U.S. manufacturing facilities.
