8 min read
  • GE Vernova to expand electrification manufacturing and engineering capabilities in India with new facilities in Chennai and Noida.

  • New capacity to support HVDC and FACTS technologies for grid stability and renewable integration

  • Investment enhances local production, reduces supply chain dependencies, and supports export demand.

Delhi, India (May 14, 2025) GE Vernova (NYSE: GEV) today announced plans to invest approximately USD $16 million in India to expand its electrification manufacturing and engineering footprint—specifically, advanced grid technologies that enable stable, reliable, and secure delivery of electricity.

The investment will be made by GE Vernova T&D India Limited (NSE: GEV T&D), the listed entity of GE Vernova’s Electrification business in India and includes the development of a new manufacturing line at its existing facility in Chennai (Pallavaram) and a new facility in Noida. These expansions are expected to enhance the ability of GE Vernova T&D India Limited to manufacture and test key next-generation equipment used in modern transmission systems, supporting both India’s energy transition and export demand from other fast-growing economies.

These new expansions will focus on High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) and Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Systems (FACTS)—technologies that help stabilize power grids, reduce transmission losses, and make it easier to connect renewable energy like solar and wind. These systems are critical for getting renewable energy from where it’s generated—often in remote areas—to where it’s needed most: cities, industries, and communities.

“India continues to be a critical part of our global strategy—both for our customers and as a manufacturing hub,” said Johan Bindele, VP of Grid Systems Integration at GE Vernova. “GE Vernova’s Electrification equipment backlog has more than tripled over the past year—driven by strong demand for transformers, switchgear, and grid technologies including HVDC and FACTS. These new expansions are aimed at enhancing our capabilities in the region, helping reduce supply chain dependencies, and allowing us to deliver faster, smarter solutions to customers in India and around the world.”

“With energy demand rising and more renewables being added to the grid, the need for strong, smart, and flexible infrastructure has never been greater,” said Sandeep Zanzaria, Managing Director and CEO of GE Vernova T&D India Limited. “Through this investment, we are strengthening our ability to deliver technologies that help utilities move more power, with fewer losses, over longer distances—and do it more sustainably.”

Investment Details:

  • The new manufacturing line at the existing Chennai facility will produce Line Commutated Converter (LCC) HVDC valves and Voltage Source Converter (VSC) Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) valves. 
    These valves are key components of advanced HVDC and FACTS systems. LCC is typically used for long-distance, high-capacity power transmission, while VSC is more suitable for connecting renewable energy sources and providing grid stability.
  • In Noida, GE Vernova T&D India Limited will set up a new engineering and test lab to support design and system validation for these solutions, as well as supply control systems ensuring quality and performance in real-world grid conditions.

The Noida lab is expected to be operational by the end of 2025, and the new manufacturing line in Chennai facility by early-2027.

Included within GE Vernova’s previously announced ~$4 billion cumulative capex plan through 2028, this investment is part of GE Vernova’s broader “Asia for Asia” strategy—focusing on building localized manufacturing capacity to better serve regional needs, while contributing to global supply chain resilience. It also supports India’s ambition to become a renewable energy leader by expanding access to “Make in India” technologies that power everything from homes to factories with more efficiency and less environmental impact.

GE Vernova T&D India currently operates five manufacturing facilities across the country and has served the Indian grid for over 100 years.

Built on GE Vernova’s proven FLEXINVERTER platform, the new 1.5kV SiC solution is designed to deliver greater electrical efficiency, higher power density, and more compact, lightweight inverter designs that optimize installation space. Silicon carbide technology allows inverters to operate at higher voltages and temperatures, helping reduce energy losses, cooling needs, and system size — ultimately lowering the levelized cost of storage (LCoS) and overall EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) costs.

At the same time, GE Vernova has expanded its 2kV FLEXINVERTER for PV applications to support IEC markets, offering solar developers significant balance of system (BOS) cost savings through reduced cable sizes, lower energy losses, and improved system efficiency.

Global Manufacturing and Expansion

The FLEXINVERTER platform was developed at GE Vernova’s engineering center in Berlin, Germany, and will be manufactured at facilities in Chennai, India, and Pittsburgh, USA. Earlier this year, GE Vernova announced plans to expand capabilities at the Pittsburgh site, including a new manufacturing line for the FLEXINVERTER platform, expected to create more than 270 new jobs. The Chennai facility will also experience continued growth to support global supply chain needs.

"The introduction of the FLEXINVERTER 1.5kV SiC (BESS) and 2kV PV solutions reflect GE Vernova’s commitment to advancing technologies that meet the evolving needs of the energy industry," said Ed Torres, Business Leader, Power Conversion & Storage, GE Vernova. "Building on our prior success with the 2 kV solar inverter launch, this next step in battery storage technology is expected to deliver improved project economics, higher efficiency, and more sustainable energy solutions. We anticipate initial shipments to begin in the first half of 2026.”

GE Vernova debuts next evolution of upgrade to boost 9E.03 gas turbines capacity across the world

9 min read
  • Launch customer Taurus Energy to implement world’s first AGP XPAND upgrade at the 1,250 megawatts (MW) combined cycle Bazyan Power Plant in Iraq

     

  • New upgrade marks GE Vernova’s continuous R&D investments in its Gas Power business to improve existing technologies

     

  • New AGP XPAND upgrade expected to boost the power output and efficiency of existing 9E.03 gas turbines across the world – this could lead to a cumulative increase of 5 gigawatts (GW) at the global level 

Sulaymaniyah, IRAQ (April 28,2025) – GE Vernova (NYSE: GEV) announced today the AGP XPAND upgrade, an evolution of its proven Advanced Gas Path (AGP) technology introduced more than a decade ago on the company’s 9E.03 fleet to boost gas turbine capacity. The first AGP XPAND is planned to be installed at the 1,250 MW Bazyan Power Plant —operated by Taurus Energy, a portfolio company of Onex Group, a private energy group with a track record in power generation, utilities, energy trading, shipping, and refining.

The news was celebrated in Sulaymaniyah in the presence of H.E. Qubad Talabani, Deputy Prime Minister of the Kurdistan Regional Government, H.E. Kamal Mohammad Salih Khalil, Minister of Electricity in the Kurdistan Regional Government and Mr. Steven Bitner, Consul General at the U.S. Consulate General Erbil along other senior government officials and local business leaders.

The new technology is engineered to help gas plant power producers and industrial operators increase their 9E.03 gas turbines output by up to approximately 7 percent, with an approximately 1 percent of incremental efficiency, while keeping reliability, availability, and maintenance largely unchanged. In addition, exhaust energy could increase by up to 2.6 percent to produce more steam or power, for combined heat and power (CHP) plants or combined cycle plants, like the Bazyan power plant.

Taurus is welcoming this technology, which could modernize its Bazyan site, powered by four GE Vernova 9E.03 and two 9F.04 gas turbines. The plant is fueled by natural gas as the primary fuel source and light fuel oil as back–up fuel and engineered for base-load operations with an expected lifetime of 25-30 years. The AGP XPAND upgrade is expected to enhance the current capacity and deliver additional much-needed electricity to the Kurdistan Region as well as nearby cities and governorates such as Mosul and Salahaldin.

Additionally, a new 17-year long term service agreement was signed covering four GE Vernova’s 9E units with the first 9E Rotor Life Extension package in Iraq, demonstrating an extension of the strategic collaboration between the two companies.

“We have a long-standing relationship with GE Vernova. For over a decade, we have been utilizing GE Vernova’s technology, and we are proud that Taurus, part of the Onex Group, is leading the way in bringing this breakthrough technology to Iraq,” said Sheikh Saad Tayeb Hasan, Founder & Chairman of ONEX. “By utilizing Kurdistan Region’s natural gas resources and power generation capacity, we are laying the foundation to create an energy hub. Through projects like Bazyan, we can contribute to the efforts to meet local energy needs as well as transmit additional power to other parts of the country. Our celebration today truly confirms GE Vernova’s long-term commitment to Iraq.”

Latest Game Changer in AGP technology

Built on 9E’s fleet experience and the technical improvements from the 9E.03 AGP, AGP XPAND components have evolved by making additional updates to the materials and sealing of AGP components, enabling a substantial increase the firing temperature above that of the 9E AGP. These components were engineered by GE Vernova’s teams in Greenville, South Carolina, United States and in GE Vernova’s Engineering Center in Warsaw, Poland. They are produced at the company’s Manufacturing Excellence Centers in Belfort, France and Vereseghyaz, Hungary.

“With over 730 units deployed worldwide, half of which are installed in the Middle East and Africa, GE Vernova has the largest operating and most experienced E-class fleet in the world and confirms its commitment to keep its mature fleets competitive in today’s very dynamic marketplace,” said Amit Kulkarni, Head of Product Management & Strategy, Gas Power at GE Vernova. “Improving existing technologies is the fastest way to inject power to the grid. The modernization of the current 9E.03 installed base can boost the power output and efficiency of existing 9E.03 gas turbines across the world. This would lead to a possible cumulative increase of up to 5 gigawatts of electricity at the global level, and a combined more than $100* million in fuel savings annually for the same baseline output, while opening up the potential for an aggregate incremental profitability of up to $310 million annually due to the new power capacity*.”

GE Vernova 9E.03 units using natural gas, distillate oil or ash-bearing fuels, both in a simple or combined cycle configuration, can be upgraded to AGP XPAND during a typical hot gas path or major inspection.

“We are delighted to celebrate the new long term service agreement and the installation of our new upgrade at the Bazyan power plant,” said Joseph Anis, President & CEO of GE Vernova’s Gas Power business in Europe, Middle East, and Africa. “We trust this upgrade represents an excellent solution for countries like Iraq, which have a large 9E.03 installed base and pressing needs to meet growing energy demand. We are delighted to work with Taurus Energy on this essential project as reliable operations at strategic facilities, such as the Bazyan power plant, are crucial to sustain economic development efforts across the country.”

GE Vernova has supported the development of energy infrastructure in Iraq for 60 years and helped to build and service power plants and grid substations. It has added more than 19 GW of power capacity since 2011, built and energized more than 30 substations since 2015, and mobilized over $3 billion in financing for energy projects since 2015.

* Considering the entire 9E fleet, using 4,000 hours / years of operation, fuel price of $3/MMBtu, and electricity price of $40/MWh

** Incremental profitability due to additional output (the additional revenues, minus the additional fuel costs, which are needed to generate the additional MW)
