There isn’t one single remedy to solve climate change. It’s going to take a full toolbox of strategies to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide currently being pumped into the air and to maintain lower levels in the future. Companies are pivoting to renewable energy and more efficient processes, but ensuring a resilient grid requires a broad mix of technologies. This means not just using lower-carbon fuels and capturing emissions during before they enter the atmosphere, but removing them where they already exist.

SCHENECTADY, NY (February 5, 2026) – GE Vernova’s Onshore Wind business announced today that it received orders in 2025 to repower 1.1 gigawatts (GW) of onshore wind turbines in the U.S. The projects will use nacelles and drive trains manufactured in the U.S. at GE Vernova’s Pensacola, Florida facility, where approximately 20 percent of the workers are veterans, supporting U.S. energy abundance, affordability, and security.

Uzair Memon, Chief Commercial Officer for GE Vernova’s Onshore Wind Services business, said, “These significant repower orders underscore the critical role our advanced technology plays in optimizing existing wind assets. By deploying our state-of-the-art repower solutions, we enable our customers to achieve increased energy production, significantly enhance asset reliability, reduce operational and maintenance costs, and extend the overall lifespan of their wind farms. This directly aligns with our commitment to making existing renewable infrastructure more productive and sustainable for the long term, while also bolstering U.S. manufacturing and job creation.”

All orders were booked in 2025. These repower projects are expected to reach their commercial operation date between 2026 and 2027. The technical benefits of repowering are clear: Repowering increases the size, output, and longevity of existing turbines to capture more reliable renewable energy for a longer period.

David Hardy, GE Vernova’s Chief Commercial Officer for Wind, added, “A repower project enables us to rejuvenate a wind farm to increase annual energy production, extend life, and improve project availability. These projects are rooted in deep, long-term customer partnerships, where we work closely together to provide solutions that maximize performance and long-term value.”

GE Vernova's Onshore Wind business has a total installed base of approximately 59,000 turbines and nearly 120 GW of installed capacity worldwide. Committed to its customers' success for more than two decades, its product portfolio offers the next-generation high-powered turbines at scale that drive decarbonization through high-quality, more affordable, and sustainable renewable energy.

The world’s demand for energy shows no sign of abating.

The world’s energy challenges unfold on long timelines, stretching across generations. Addressing them requires sustained innovation, driven by people with curiosity, creativity, and collaborative instincts — many of whom are still children today.

In today’s fast-paced world of innovation and transformation, staying ahead means more than just delivering high-quality, world-class technology and energy systems. It means investing in the people behind them.

When a company’s people grow, the business grows too. That’s why learning, development, and personal growth are important to GE Vernova. Its technical academies take employees on a learning journey through bespoke training programs that feature technical experts, classroom training, and hands-on opportunities.

In 2025, as GE Vernova celebrated one full year as a standalone company, the company took ideas that were only recently on the drafting board and put them into action. From small modular nuclear reactors to advanced grid software to a high-voltage superhighway on the Baltic Sea, a new world of innovations is emerging to electrify and decarbonize the world. Take a look at how 2025 was the year GE Vernova began making the future come alive today.

Earlier this year, GE Vernova CEO Scott Strazik wrote that helping to solve the energy challenges of tomorrow depends on the “gritty, never-give-up” hopefulness of its 75,000 employees. “What we’ve learned in our first historic year as GE Vernova is that the best way to do this starts on our factory floors, at the installed base, and in our research centers, all guided by a relentless sense of optimism in our capacity to create and lead positive change.”

Last month, world leaders met in Belém, Brazil, at the UN’s COP30 summit to share their plans to implement solutions to address climate change.
