Statistics reflect what leaders like Yogini Parkhi know from experience. At a key moment in many girls’ lives, they’re nudged away from interests like math and science. “I know it happened to me growing up in India,” says Parkhi, the engineering leader for GE Vernova’s Grid OS Data Fabric and Connect business. She saw the same thing happen with her daughter years later in the States. “When she was 10 she could solve a Rubik’s Cube in 50 seconds,” Parkhi recalls.

This past May, 12 U.S. military veterans joined forces to carry an American flag 3,000 miles from San Diego to Washington, D.C. Team Red, White & Blue completed the Old Glory Ultra Relay in a record time of less than 17 days, raising more than $1 million for the cause of veterans’ health and wellness. One of those dozen men and women was Jordan Buck, an Army vet and steelworker in lean operations at GE Vernova’s manufacturing facility in Schenectady, New York.

Give Jackie Chimiak an unprecedented challenge and she’ll find a way to meet it.

When Kassy Hart was a teenager, she thought the life of an engineer was a bit like a newspaper cartoon she used to read. “You’re just sitting at a desk not talking to anyone, and this boss will yell at you for no reason,” says Hart, who is now a data center and hydrogen commercialization manager at GE Vernova. “That was before I got to design something.”

Growing up near the shores of Lake Michigan in the 1990s, Lisa Berry didn’t harbor engineering ambitions. But everything changed when she joined her high school’s robotics group. “My brother had been a member, and it looked pretty cool,” remembers Berry, who is now GE Vernova’s decarbonization and data center technology director for the Americas. One of the coolest things was the chance to learn from one of the program’s founders, Natalie Lowell, a local manufacturing engineer who mentored the budding roboticists.

Let’s say you’re a developing country whose power grid is saddled with inefficient oil-fired power generation and you need to electrify quickly to meet the needs of a fast-growing economy. You might build out your solar, wind, battery storage, natural gas, or all of the above — but who can you call for help and advice?

How does a rock climber from Chile wind up working in America’s intellectual capital, Cambridge, Massachusetts? For Matias Opazo, a pivotal meeting last year with GE Vernova CEO Scott Strazik sparked the beginning of a new career chapter.

WILMINGTON, North Carolina (October 6, 2025) – Global Nuclear Fuel (GNF, a GE Vernova-led alliance with Hitachi, Ltd.) today announced the introduction of GNF4, a next generation nuclear fuel product built on a 60-year legacy of boiling water reactor (BWR) fuel design innovation and performance.

The 11x11 GNF4 product builds upon the operating history of GNF2 and GNF3 and features two advanced components that are licensed by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission: Ziron cladding and aluminosilicate doped uranium dioxide pellets.

Ziron cladding was developed to better resist corrosion, ensuring that fuel remains safe and reliable and is an enhancement to the Zircaloy 2 cladding that has been utilized in more than 175,000 GNF fuel assemblies worldwide. Aluminosilicate doped uranium dioxide pellets add an extra layer of reliability. GNF4 will also utilize GNF’s proprietary NSF channel material and Defender+ debris filter.

“GNF4 is engineered to provide plant operators with lower fuel costs per megawatt hour through increased performance and reliability,” said Craig Ranson, Installed Base CEO, GE Vernova Hitachi Nuclear Energy. “Our engineering and supply chain teams are leveraging their BWR expertise to introduce this next generation fuel.” 

GNF4 is being fabricated at GNF’s manufacturing facility in Wilmington, NC. The first lead use assemblies of GNF4 are contracted for deployment in 2026 and full reload quantities are expected to be available in 2030.  

GNF provides a wide range of services to support nuclear power plants including expert core and fuel cycle engineering, reload licensing and core management services, predictive reports and fuel reliability risk assessments, cyber-secure core monitoring and fleet analytics, fuel examination services and consulting on reactor operations and long-term fuel storage.
