  • GE Vernova's Advanced Research Center in Niskayuna, NY, is critical to the company's efforts to advance energy innovation and help meet the country's growing energy needs

  • GE Vernova has invested in expanding the GE Vernova Advanced Research Center, including facilities and headcount

  • The Capital Region is well-positioned to become a hub for energy innovation, with GE Vernova's Advanced Research Center leading the way in developing cutting-edge technologies

NISKAYUNA, NY (November 17, 2025) – GE Vernova (NYSE: GEV) hosted an exclusive sneak peek of its Advanced Research Center located on Balltown Rd. in Niskayuna, NY, on November 17th, 2025.

This special event offered an opportunity for attendees to experience facilities that will house advanced research and technology intended to support the future of energy. Set for a grand opening in 2026, attendees of the sneak peek were among the first outside GE Vernova to tour these exciting facilities and witness demos of some of the promising research technologies that will be housed there.

Accelerated with an investment of more than $105 million from GE Vernova and the State of New York, the GE Vernova Advanced Research Center is a key part of GE Vernova's innovation strategy, and the expansion of these facilities is an important milestone in the company's plan to create a dedicated energy technology research campus. This expanded footprint will enable the creation of new, high-tech laboratory spaces and create 75 new research positions in New York.

The construction and expansion of this center will further enable GE Vernova to bring leading talent and organizations to the Capital Region of New York State to collaborate on energy technologies with the potential for broad impact. The GE Vernova Advanced Research Center is focused on developing transformative technologies across the energy landscape, and showcased three distinct research and development technologies during this event which will be embedded at the site:

  • Carbon capture technology: An experimental Direct Air Capture (DAC) system already installed in Niskayuna designed to capture up to 10 tons of carbon dioxide from the air every year.
  • Wind turbine manufacturing technology for quality: Advanced robotics and artificial intelligence technologies improve the manufacturing process for wind turbine blades.
  • AI for the Grid: Zonal autonomous grid control, an AI-powered technology that enables timely optimization and control of the power grid to support efficient, resilient, and renewable energy integration by autonomously managing energy distribution and improving grid forecasting.

The company's Advanced Research Center is a hub for innovation, where leaders from industry, government, and academia come together to develop and deploy new technologies designed to shape the future of energy. The Advanced Research Center also collaborates with, invests in, and develops new startups and spin-out companies through its diverse technology portfolio. With these expanded and enhanced laboratories and meeting spaces, GE Vernova is positioned to host leaders and innovators from around the world, placing it at the center of a global network of innovation and collaboration in the Capital Region.

"We are thrilled to be expanding our Advanced Research Center in Niskayuna, and we believe that this investment will have a significant impact on the local economy and the global energy landscape," said David Vernooy, Vice President of Advanced Research at GE Vernova. "By bringing together the best and brightest minds from around the world, we are creating a unique innovation ecosystem that will drive the development of new technologies and solutions that can change the world. With these world-class laboratory and workspaces, we’re positioned to attract strong talent and drive energy technology innovation."

The newly expanded and renovated space spans approximately 50,000 square feet of lab and workspace, along with approximately 56,000 square feet of experiential patio space for outdoor work and social activity, providing a unique and collaborative environment for researchers and industry partners to engage on the future of energy technology. This dynamic environment makes it an ideal destination for professionals looking to work on important technologies and make an impact on the future of energy.

Advanced Research teams plan to fully occupy and utilize the space by April of 2026, with a planned Grand Opening ceremony in summer of 2026.

GE Vernova to deploy pioneering Direct Air Capture technology at Deep Sky Alpha in Canada

7 min read

NEW YORK CITY (September 24, 2025) – GE Vernova and Deep Sky, the world’s first technology-agnostic carbon removal project developer, announced an agreement to deploy GE Vernova's Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology at Deep Sky Alpha in Alberta, Canada. GE Vernova's technology will be capable of capturing up to 1,500 tons of carbon per year. With operations scheduled to begin by late 2026, Alpha will deploy GE Vernova’s proprietary solid sorbent technology, developed and rigorously tested at the company’s Advanced Research Centers.

Located in Innisfail, Alberta, Deep Sky Alpha is the world’s first cross-technology carbon removal hub which became operational in August 2025.

“We are excited about this first-of-its-kind collaboration, which marks an important step in advancing GE Vernova’s scalable, energy-efficient DAC solutions,” said Brian Moran, Executive Director of GE Vernova’s DAC program. “While the technology and industry are still emerging, collaborations like this, built on shared ambition and complementary strengths, have the potential to transform the future of carbon removal.”

GE Vernova DAC solutions couple innovative technology with resilient global supply chains that enable rapid deployment, as well as integrated systems engineering that improves energy use, harnesses waste heat, and ensures reliable operations at scale.

To further support the success of the Deep Sky Alpha project and future deployments, GE Vernova recently commissioned a 10-ton per year DAC test facility at their Advance Research Center in Niskayuna, New York. This system will play a pivotal role in demonstrating the capabilities of both the sorbent materials and the overall DAC technology, building confidence in its reliability and performance at the pilot stage and laying the groundwork for successful commercial-scale deployment.

“Deep Sky is the only place in the world offering end-to-end deployment, operations, renewable power and CO2 storage for DAC technologies, all in real world conditions,” said Alex Petre, CEO of Deep Sky. “GE Vernova entering this space underscores the growing momentum and urgency for DAC as a climate solution. We’re proud to welcome their unit to Deep Sky Alpha and to serve as the proving ground that sets the pace for the industry’s growth.”

The collaboration between Deep Sky and GE Vernova represents an important first step in deploying this innovative technology at speed and scale. It sets the foundation for future commercial-scale DAC projects in Canada, and internationally, as both organizations focus on the scale-up and industrialization of these solutions.

Together, GE Vernova and Deep Sky are committed to developing and deploying cutting-edge carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies. High-quality CDR is essential for achieving emissions goals. DAC removes carbon dioxide (CO₂) directly from the atmosphere using chemical processes. Unlike capturing emissions at their source (like power plants or industrial facilities), DAC removes CO₂ from ambient air, which makes it useful for addressing residual emissions and emissions from sources that are hard-to-abate, such as aviation, shipping, or heavy industry.

Before being accepted to the Indian Institute of Science, Rajib Datta contemplated a career as a fine artist. “I was good at math and physics, so I knew engineering or science was probably in my future,” he says. But he felt equally adept in the field that he’d pursued since childhood. A natural draftsman and painter, Datta still executes figurative works and sketches today, and now senses a resonance between visual art and his pioneering work with GE Vernova in the field of power electronics.
