Wind power is entering a period of accelerated growth. By the end of the decade, global capacity is expected to nearly double, to more than 2,000 gigawatts. Meeting that demand will require not only new factories, but more from the ones already operating — producing at greater scale, moving faster, and operating more efficiently.

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

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.”

In 2010, India’s grid was in crisis. The Asian nation struggled with power deficits close to 13% during periods of peak demand, while around one in four Indians still lacked access to electricity. But India has come a long way, and fast. Today 99.6% of Indians have electricity access.

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.

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.

Taiwan, (November 19, 2025) – GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) today announced its first onshore wind repower upgrade agreement outside the United States, signing with Taiwan Power Company (TPC) to supply 25 repower upgrade kits in Taiwan. The announcement was made during the B20 South Africa 2025 Summit in Johannesburg. The milestone international contract builds on GE Vernova’s track record of repowering over 6,000 wind turbines in the United States, extending that expertise to support Taiwan’s decarbonization goals.

Under the agreement, GE Vernova will provide repower upgrade kits to repower 25 GE Vernova 1.5 MW-70.5m turbines and deliver a five-year operations and maintenance (O&M) services package. The order was booked in the third quarter of 2025. Initial components are scheduled for delivery in the fourth quarter of 2025, with retrofit installation taking place throughout 2026 and 2027.

Wind repowering enables turbines approaching the end of their designed operational life to be modernized and returned to service with improved reliability and performance. By extending asset life beyond original design life, the project will help TPC continue generating affordable, renewable electricity while maximizing existing infrastructure.

Uzair Memon, Chief Commercial Officer for GE Vernova’s Onshore Wind Services business, said “As we bring our proven repowering capabilities to customers outside the U.S. for the first time, we’re proud to work with TPC to support Taiwan’s energy transition. The deal also reinforces how our services capabilities drive lifecycle value for our customers through fleet reliability, technology investment and an integrated global supply chain.”

The announcement aligns with one of the recommendations of the Energy Mix & Just Transition policy paper released at the B20 Summit, which calls on stakeholders to accelerate the expansion and modernization of energy infrastructure to increase energy efficiency, access, and reliable power supply. Roger Martella, Chief Corporate Officer and Chief Sustainability Officer, GE Vernova, was a co-chair of the group that developed the policy paper.

GE Vernova has a total installed base of approximately 57,000 turbines and nearly 120 GW of installed capacity worldwide. Building on more than two decades of customer relationships, GE Vernova offers high-quality, affordable, and sustainable wind solutions — including repowering and life-extension services — to power the world’s growing energy needs.
