SCHENECTADY, NY. (June, 18, 2024) - GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) announced today that delivery is underway for 88 of its 2.8 MW-127m* workhorse wind turbines for Puget Sound Energy’s (PSE) Beaver Creek wind farm in Stillwater County, Montana. Turbine deliveries for the project, which was booked by GE Vernova in the fourth quarter of 2023, first began in May 2024.

The Beaver Creek Wind Project is expected to have an initial capacity of 248 MW, enough energy to power the equivalent of about 83,000 homes per year. The project is expected to utilize an estimated 150-200 skilled workers during construction with an expected ongoing need for 10-15 permanent on-site workers during operation. The project will interconnect on NorthWestern Energy’s system and will use existing PSE transmission lines to bring wind energy back to PSE customers.

Stephen Swift, Chief Commercial Officer of GE Vernova Wind, said: “We are pleased to work with Puget Sound Energy to supply their Beaver Creek Wind Project, which takes advantage of Montana’s strong wind profile to help them drive their clean energy transformation. Like Puget Sound Energy, GE Vernova understands the importance of meeting the demand for clean energy while at the same time continuing to deliver safe and reliable energy. Our GE 2.8 MW-127m workhorse turbines are ideally suited to help PSE and other customers meet ambitious clean energy goals.”

“PSE is excited to leverage our experience developing and operating major wind projects and the expertise of GE Vernova, which has been established in the wind business for decades, for delivery of the Beaver Creek Wind Project,” said Jim Hogan, Director of Major Projects at PSE. “Our partnership with GE Vernova on this project helps us as we take another step forward in delivering one of the most ambitious clean energy transformations of any utility in the country.”

GE Vernova's Onshore wind business 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 technology that leads with high-powered turbines to enable high-quality scale and drive decarbonization through affordable and sustainable generation of renewable energy. The portfolio builds on the 2.8 MW-127m workhorse turbine. With over 23 GW installed and 200 million operational hours, the 2.8 MW-127m is one the best-selling turbines in the U.S. in history. Designed specifically for the U.S. market, the 2.8 MW-127m continues to deliver best-in-industry ease of installation and a high capacity factor.

ThinkLabs is the first startup to be launched from GE Vernova. This move highlights the company’s commitment to enhancing the speed at which it brings energy transition innovations to customers.

“Our customers and the vital energy challenges we’re solving for demand relentless innovation,” said Limor Spector, President of Ventures and Incubation for GE Vernova. “This initial early-stage investment highlights one of the many ways we are committed to developing an innovative ecosystem in support of changing the trajectory of climate change.”

ThinkLabs is the result of an incubation effort launched by GE Vernova’s Electrification Software business and led by Josh Wong. During his time at GE Vernova, Wong focused on the application of disruptive technologies to help improve the way electric utilities manage, balance, optimize, and coordinate the grid. Wong has left GE Vernova to lead ThinkLabs as its chief executive officer.

ThinkLabs was pre-seeded with an initial early-stage investment by GE Vernova. An additional first-time seed-stage investment of $5 million was co-led by Powerhouse Ventures and Active Impact Investments. Other participants in the round included Blackhorn Ventures, Amplify Capital, Mercuria Energy, and a national US energy company. The company will be privately owned by its founders, GE Vernova, and the other investors.

The software application ThinkLabs is developing uses a combination of intelligent automation and AI to help enhance grid planning. The early-stage application, which is leveraging external funding partners to accelerate development, is planned to complement GE Vernova’s GridOS^® software portfolio. The GridOS portfolio is comprised of a platform and suite of AI and Power Systems-based applications designed to help enable secure, reliable grid orchestration while delivering the resiliency and flexibility utilities need to modernize and transform to a more sustainable energy grid.

In 2009, the United States Department of Energy was seeking a dose of radical thinking. Early that year, its newly created Advanced Research Projects Agency–Energy (ARPA-E) issued an open call for “the most revolutionary energy technologies.” If ARPA-E officials were expecting a steady trickle of ideas from business, academia, and research laboratories, they were wrong. They’d just opened the floodgates.

Atlanta, Georgia: April 11, 2024 – GE Vernova’s Gas Power business (NYSE: GEV) today announced it has secured an order for its 7HA.03 combined-cycle plant equipment from Louisville Gas and Electric Company and Kentucky Utilities Company (LG&E and KU), regulated utilities that are part of the PPL family of companies (NYSE: PPL), to power a new natural gas combined-cycle generating unit (NGCC) at the utilities’ existing Mill Creek Generating Station in Louisville, Kentucky.

Last year, the Kentucky Public Service Commission approved LG&E and KU’s plans to retire two aging coal generation units and build a new NGCC at its Mill Creek Generating Station. The commission also approved solar energy projects, battery storage, and a suite of energy efficiency programs.

“We’re proud to serve the communities in which our employees live and work at the lowest reasonable cost, and the addition of a new NGCC at our Mill Creek Generating Station – which has provided ‘round the clock’ energy to our customers for decades – is an important part of how we’re continuing to plan for Kentucky’s energy future in a responsible, affordable and reliable way”, said Lonnie Bellar, senior vice president, Engineering and Construction. “We’re also proud to partner with GE Vernova on bringing to life what will be the most advanced NGCC generating unit in our fleet”.

MC5 is expected to have an output of approximately 645-megawatts (MW) and will feature the most advanced GE Vernova 7HA.03 gas turbine, which will be fueled initially by natural gas, with the ability to utilize up to 50 percent hydrogen (by volume) as hydrogen becomes more available in the future.

GE Vernova will also provide a STF-D650 steam turbine along with a W86 generator, a Vogt Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) and its integrated Mark* VIe control system for gas turbine performance management. NGCCs, like MC5, have the lowest carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and other emissions of all fossil-fuel powered generation.

“GE Vernova’s advanced HA gas turbines produce less than one-third of the carbon emissions of a similar coal-fired generating station, so constructing a NGCC works in harmony with LG&E and KU’s future carbon reduction plans by incorporating the potential of hydrogen-based fuels and carbon-capture technologies”, said Dave Ross, President of GE Vernova’s Gas Power in the Americas region. “We are honored to support LG&E and KU in this project, not only through bringing our advanced HA power generation equipment, but also by working to ensure its best operation through the deployment of controls software and remote monitoring abilities well into the future”.

The performance of the new 7HA.03 gas turbine includes a highly flexible ramp rate of 75MW/min as validated at GE Vernova’s Test Stand 7 in Greenville, South Carolina.

GE Vernova will also provide services to help increase operational efficiency, expected to generate key savings in maintenance costs due to less unplanned maintenance for the combustion turbines. Data collected from sensors throughout the facility will be monitored and analyzed 24/7 at GE Vernova’s Monitoring & Diagnostics (M&D) Center in Atlanta.

The plant will be built by TIC—The Industrial Company, a subsidiary of Kiewit, one of North America’s largest engineering and construction companies.
