GE Vernova Inc. announced that its Onshore Wind division has secured repower orders totaling 1.1 GW of wind turbines in the United States. The orders were booked in 2025 and are expected to reach commercial operation between 2026 and 2027. Nacelles and drive trains for the projects will be manufactured at the company’s Pensacola, Florida facility, which recently completed a $70 million expansion to increase capacity for clean‑energy components.

The 1.1 GW of new work extends the productive life of existing wind farms, increases annual energy production, and reduces operating and maintenance costs for customers. It also represents a significant addition to GE Vernova’s wind backlog, which stood at $150.2 billion at the end of Q4 2025—a 26.2% year‑over‑year increase. The company’s book‑to‑bill ratio of roughly 2× underscores the pace at which orders are coming in relative to the ability to fill them.

Repowering has become a major growth engine in the wind industry as older turbines reach the end of their designed life. GE Vernova’s focus on domestic manufacturing—highlighted by the Pensacola expansion and the recent acquisition of Prolec GE—positions the company to capture value from this trend while supporting U.S. jobs. The repower orders also align with GE Vernova’s broader strategy to strengthen its Power and Electrification segments, which have delivered strong growth in the last quarter.

"These orders underscore the critical role of our advanced technology in optimizing existing wind assets," said Uzair Memon, Chief Commercial Officer for GE Vernova’s Onshore Wind Services. "Repowering extends the life of wind farms, boosts output, and delivers cost savings for our customers," added David Hardy, Chief Commercial Officer for GE Vernova’s Wind division.

The announcement follows a Q4 2025 earnings report that beat analyst expectations on both revenue and earnings per share, driven by robust demand in the Power and Electrification segments and a strong backlog. Investors have responded positively to the company’s continued focus on cost discipline, domestic manufacturing, and strategic acquisitions, reinforcing confidence in GE Vernova’s long‑term growth prospects.
