GE Vernova operates as a purpose-built global energy technology company with approximately 75,000 employees across more than 100 countries, focused on electrification and decarbonization through three core business units: Power, Wind, and Electrification. Headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts and led by CEO Scott Strazik, the company maintains an installed base of approximately 7,000 gas turbines and 55,000 wind turbines that collectively help generate roughly 25% of the world's electricity. The organization supports these operations through three internal accelerators covering Advanced Research, Consulting Services, and Financial Services.
The company's technical infrastructure spans power generation technologies, wind energy systems, electrification solutions, gas turbines, and low-carbon energy technologies. GE Vernova operates at significant scale across the global energy sector, with operations touching critical infrastructure in more than 100 countries and exposure to both legacy industrial control systems and modern grid technologies. The company has publicly committed to achieving carbon neutrality in its facilities and operations by 2030.
The threat surface for an organization of this profile includes operational technology environments, distributed energy assets, supply chain security across turbine manufacturing and deployment, and the protection of proprietary research in advanced energy systems. The company's technical domains - from gas turbine control systems to wind farm networks and grid electrification infrastructure - represent critical energy infrastructure with both physical and digital attack vectors that require specialized security operations.
