What GE does
GE Vernova is the energy-focused publicly traded spin-off of General Electric, headquartered in Boston and operating across approximately 100 countries with ~85,000 employees following the conglomerate's April 2024 separation. Its core products span the full power generation stack: gas turbines (including HA-class and hydrogen-capable configurations), steam turbines, hydroelectric generators, nuclear reactor equipment, and onshore and offshore wind turbines (manufactured at facilities such as Salzbergen, Germany, with blades from subsidiary LM Wind Power). Complementing the hardware, GE Vernova provides grid solutions, power conversion and storage (via Prolec GE), and electrification software including the AI-driven GridBot tool, with a stated mission to electrify and decarbonize the global power system.
GE Aerospace, the other principal GE entity formed in the 2024 spin-off, supplies commercial and defense aircraft engines — the GE9X, GEnx, LEAP-1A, and T408/F414 families — to aircraft OEMs and airlines (notably as the exclusive engine supplier for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner), defense ministries, and government programs. Both businesses monetize through a mix of capital equipment sales, multi-year Long-Term Service Agreements, MRO services, and software subscriptions, with GE Aerospace holding an order backlog exceeding $190 billion as of Q1 2026.
The business model is enterprise field-sales driven, with direct sales to utilities, independent power producers, aircraft OEMs, airlines, and defense ministries, supported by regional sales structures and a global service network. Major customers include American Airlines, United Airlines, Delta, the U.S. Marine Corps, NASA, YTL PowerSeraya, Pattern Energy, and Hindustan Aeronautics Limited. GE is currently in a portfolio-rationalization phase, having divested its Durgapur thermal boiler facility to JSW Energy in late 2025, while pursuing growth in hydrogen-capable generation, India defense propulsion, and AI-integrated grid and data center power infrastructure.

Strategic signalPartnerships
Eleven partnerships are on record, tiered minor and core.
- AerCap Holdings N.V.minorAerCap delivered the first new GE-powered Boeing 787-9 aircraft to Thai Airways International at Boeing's Delivery Center in Everett, Seattle. AerCap, as a major aircraft leasing company, places GE-powered Boeing aircraft with airline customers globally, supporting fleet renewal programs.
- American Airlines and Delta Air LinescoreAmerican Airlines committed to 300+ LEAP-1A engines and Delta Air Lines committed to 60 GE9X engines, as part of GE Aerospace's Q1 2026 commercial engine wins totaling over $1 billion.
- NTPC-GE (NGSL Joint Venture)coreNGSL (NTPC GE Steam Microsystems Private Limited) is a joint venture between NTPC and GE responsible for operations and maintenance of thermal power plants in India. NGSL handled operations at Vedanta's Athena power plant in Chhattisgarh where a boiler explosion killed 25 workers in April 2026. Both Vedanta and NGSL were found to have failed to adhere to proper maintenance and operational standards.
- Indian Ministry of Defence (for AMCA Programme)coreGE Aerospace has proposed a new 110-130 kN thrust engine derived from its F414 architecture for India's Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) Mk2, competing against Safran and Rolls-Royce (both offering 100% IPR and technology transfer). The Indian MoD is evaluating all three bids within a joint venture framework. India is simultaneously evaluating participation in European FCAS and UK-Italy-Japan GCAP programs for sixth-generation fighters.
- Tata Consultancy Services (TCS)minorTCS partnered with GE and other industrial companies (Honeywell, ABB, Siemens) for data center infrastructure development, as part of TCS's broader AI and data center expansion strategy including the HyperVault subsidiary and partnerships with TPG for up to $2 billion in investment to build 1-GW capacity.
- Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL)coreHAL is the Indian aerospace manufacturer producing Tejas Mk1A fighter aircraft powered by GE F404-IN20 engines. GE missed the March 2026 delivery deadline for five additional engines, triggering delays in the Tejas Mk1A programme. HAL has initiated liquidated damages proceedings against GE over engine supply delays affecting Tejas Mk-1A deliveries. GE has committed to delivering 24 engines in FY2026-27 and scaling to 30 annually thereafter.
- NASAminorNASA's X-59 quiet supersonic jet, built by Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works, is powered by a GE F414 engine. The Quesst mission aims to replace the traditional sonic boom with a softer 'thump' to enable future overland supersonic flight rules.
- GE Healthcare (GEHC) and BARDAminorGEHC is expanding its partnership with BARDA (Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority) through a $35 million investment to develop AI ultrasound technology, improving medical imaging capabilities. Note: GE Healthcare is a separately listed company following its 2024 spin-off from GE.
- United AirlinescoreUnited Airlines selected 300 GE GEnx engines for its new Boeing 787 Dreamliner fleet, representing one of GE Aerospace's largest commercial engine orders. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner exclusively uses GEnx and GE9X engines from GE.
- JSW EnergyminorJSW Energy signed an agreement to acquire GE's supercritical thermal boiler manufacturing facility in Durgapur, India, as part of GE's global exit from the thermal boiler business. The Durgapur plant has capacity for 1-2 boilers per year (1,600 MW), running at 15% capacity with ~200 employees; post-acquisition employment expected to rise to 600.
- YTL PowerSerayaminorGE Vernova is supplying HRSG (Heat Recovery Steam Generator) systems for YTL PowerSeraya's 600 MW hydrogen-capable combined cycle power plant in Singapore, representing an active industry development in Asia-Pacific's energy transition.
