GE Vernova Bolsters US Onshore Wind Fleet with 1.1 GW of Repower Orders in 2025

  • Projects directly support domestic manufacturing jobs at GE Vernova’s Pensacola, Florida facility
  • Repowering allows for the rapid deployment of additional capacity by utilizing existing sites to provide abundant, affordable, and secure energy to power the nation’s growth
  • Approach extends the lifespan of existing onshore wind turbines while significantly reducing O&M costs through the installation of modernized, high-capacity components

SCHENECTADY, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--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.
