Repower your fleet with replacement gas turbines
Regardless of your original equipment manufacturer, GE has the latest aeroderivative and heavy-duty gas turbine repowering technology to make your units economically viable again.
Repower with
Our proficiency in gas turbine replacement and flange-to-flange (including plant integration) solutions for aeroderivative (aero), industrial, and heavy-duty gas turbines from different OEMs–including Siemens, Westinghouse, Pratt & Whitney or Rolls-Royce–will position your plant to be competitive in the future.
Why repower
Repowering is a beneficial solution for plant operators looking to reduce both upfront and operating costs, as well as emissions. Replacement gas turbines from GE allow your plant to achieve higher output and efficiency, which leads to lower $/kWh, and these newer gas turbines will help keep your plant more environmentally compliant.
Improved economics from repowering your gas turbine
With their origins from our fabled aviation technology, GE’s aeroderivative gas turbine portfolio features highly flexible and mobile technologies for use in a wide variety of applications. Our aeros are trusted and proven the world over and have a wide range of characteristics that make them a great choice for energy providers.

Customer stories
power-output increase with the LM2500+
power increase with combined repowered turbine and LNG
"As the sole distributor of electricity in Jamaica, we see the use of LNG as resulting in greater stability in the price of electricity for our customers. By replacing a 19-year old unit with GE's advanced aeroderivative technology, we’ll be able to deliver more efficient power to our people, our businesses, and our critical facilities."
Joseph Williams
Senior Vice President of Generation, JPS
Integrating the LM2500+ gas turbine, GE Power Services signed an agreement with JPS to modernize its generation equipment and provide expert advisement at its Bogue Power Station in Montego Bay.
