Control Room: Our Sustainability Management System 

Our Control Room encompasses our comprehensive approach to sustainability - it is a multi-dimensional, cross-functional management system for our sustainability programs that is core to our internal operations, and which drives our external impact.

Stakeholder engagement is foundational to our sustainability programs, as it helps inform our global electrification and decarbonization efforts. Our sustainability principles ultimately guide how we implement our strategies, make progress towards our leading goals, and dispose our impact.

Our Sustainability Framework is at the center of our Control Room, helping us structure our operational activities so that we progress on our leading goals within the four pillars, and align to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs).

Guiding principles

GE Vernova Sustainability Framework

Our Sustainability Framework comprises four pillars – Electrify, Decarbonize, Conserve and Thrive – each with leading goals that progress our objectives to electrify and decarbonize the planet, conserve natural resources, and support communities where everyone can thrive. These leading goals are core to our sustainability programs and the framework helps align our business performance with non-financial impacts.

Stakeholder engagement

Stakeholder engagement is foundational to our sustainability programs. We believe that listening to and partnering with a diverse breadth of stakeholders is as essential to our success as our own work at GE Vernova.

Credibility

Credibility is our North Star in all our sustainability efforts and communications. While we are passionate about our purpose, we aim to be objective in how we communicate our performance.

How We Operate

Sustainability is core to our business strategy and operations.

Sustainability Risk and Impact Assessment

In accordance with our international guidance, including our commitment to the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), we have long prioritized risk assessments to help prioritize our actions and governance.

Sustainability Operations and Governance

Because sustainability is embedded deeply within and across all of our business activities through our operating method, we can credibly say that our full employee population contributes to delivering the goals set out in our Sustainability Framework.

Lean

We embrace Safety, Quality, Delivery, and Cost (SQDC), in that order, as our compass. We engage each other to identify and solve problems using data. We balance long-term breakthroughs with continuous improvements that drive sustainable growth.

Sustainability Education

We educate our employees about sustainability and how we operationalize our Sustainability Framework. Success in our sustainability efforts will require the contribution of each and every one of our employees – approximately 75,000 people.

HOW WE IMPACT

As an active participant and signatory to the UN Global Compact, we play a role in helping achieve a better, more sustainable future for all. We see close alignment between 10 of the 17 SDGs and the pillars of our Sustainability Framework.
