“Today, GE Vernova becomes an independent company singularly focused on accelerating the energy transition to create a more sustainable future,” said Scott Strazik, CEO of GE Vernova. “Our Power, Wind, and Electrification segments provide essential products and services to the electric power industry as we work to meet the growing power demands of economies and deliver electricity that is vital to health, safety, security, and improved quality of life. GE Vernova is purpose built to electrify and decarbonize the world, and I’m incredibly proud of what our team has accomplished with this milestone and excited to continue this journey alongside our customers and shareholders.”
“GE Vernova has an incredible opportunity ahead to create substantial value as a publicly traded, investment grade company,” said Ken Parks, CFO of GE Vernova. “Operating in attractive addressable markets with sustainability, innovation, and lean at our core, we see a strong multi-year financial trajectory for the company. Through accelerating demand for our equipment and services, as well as better selectivity and risk management, we will expand margins, grow free cash flow, and deliver effective capital allocation.”
