Reeves said, “GE Vernova’s partnership at the Port of Pensacola and continued investment in the city are a testament to our skilled workforce and its strategic importance in the growing energy sector. The jobs created here, and the turbines produced, are not only powering projects across the nation but also fueling economic growth right here at home.”

The investments in Pensacola were a key component of an announcement GE Vernova made in January that it will invest nearly $600 million in its U.S. factories and facilities over the next two years to help meet the surging electricity demands around the world. The new investments – expected to create more than 1,500 new U.S. jobs – will help drive U.S. energy affordability, national security, and competitiveness, and enable the American manufacturing footprint needed to support expanding global exports.

Vic Abate, GE Vernova Wind CEO, said, "Our dedicated employees in Pensacola are working to address increasing energy demands for the U.S. The workhorse turbines manufactured at this world class factory are engineered for reliability and scalability, ensuring our customers can meet growing energy demand."

The Pensacola factory employs a workforce comprised of approximately 20% veterans, further highlighting GE Vernova’s dedication to local job creation and honoring those who have served the United States.

GE Vernova to equip two RWE wind farms in Texas with over 100 turbines, boosting US jobs and energy security

6 min read
  • Wind farms will use 109 of GE Vernova’s 2.8 MW–127m workhorse wind turbines

  • Deal will support hundreds of construction jobs and advanced manufacturing jobs

  • Projects show how wind power can create US jobs and bolster energy security

SCHENECTADY, NY (March 18, 2025) - GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) announced today that it has entered into an agreement with RWE to provide 109 of its 2.8 MW–127m* onshore wind turbines to power the Honey Mesquite wind farm in Glasscock County, Texas and repower the Forest Creek Wind Farm near Big Spring, Texas. The Forest Creek deal was booked in the second quarter of 2024, and the Honey Mesquite order was booked in the third quarter of 2024. Deliveries of the wind turbines for both projects are scheduled to begin later this year.

The projects will bring RWE’s rebuilt and repowered wind capacity across the U.S. to more than 1 gigawatt (GW). RWE estimates the wind farms will support about hundreds of full-time jobs during peak construction and will generate enough electricity to power the equivalent of more than 85,000 homes and business annually in Texas. The projects also supports several hundred long-term, advanced manufacturing jobs at GE Vernova’s Pensacola facility that will supply equipment used at the wind farms.

GE Vernova is leveraging its robust domestic supply chain and manufacturing capabilities for this project, with the nacelles for the turbines being produced at GE Vernova's facility in Pensacola, Florida. This manufacturing facility supports U.S. energy abundance, affordability, and security, and employs a workforce comprising approximately 20 percent veterans, highlighting GE Vernova's dedication to both fostering local job creation and honoring those who have served the United States.

Scott Stalica, Executive Director, North American Commercial Operations, GE Vernova’s Onshore Wind business, said: “We are pleased to have an opportunity to support a leader in the wind industry and appreciate RWE’s confidence in our business, our technology, and our people. These projects are another example of how wind power can support the country’s growing energy needs, while creating U.S. jobs and bolster energy security.”

Kevin Kroll, Chief Operating Officer, RWE Clean Energy: “RWE's investments in West Texas symbolize our steadfast commitment to producing homegrown energy and strengthening U.S. manufacturing and supply chains through our partnerships with great American companies like GE Vernova. Together, we are contributing to American energy dominance and we are fostering continued economic opportunity and job creation in rural communities across the country.”

GE Vernova's Onshore Wind has a total installed base of approximately 56,000 turbines and nearly 120 GW of installed capacity worldwide. Committed to its customers' success for more than two decades, its product portfolio offers next-generation high-powered turbines at scale that drives decarbonization through high-quality, affordable, and sustainable renewable energy.
