Foundational repositories like the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World and the NOAA’s World Weather Records serve as libraries rich with the critical data used to analyze trends and forecast possible futures by multiple industries across the world. As we head into electricity’s expansive golden age, our knowledge base requires a similar specialized collection: intelligence and fine detail on global power systems.

A high-rise Central Bank Tower under construction in Baghdad. A new port in Basra. A transborder road network that could be the next gateway between Asia and Europe. At construction sites across Iraq, cranes and backhoes are marking a new chapter in the country’s future: After a period of conflict and unrest, Iraq is moving forward to reclaim its economic potential.

April 2 marks the one-year anniversary of GE Vernova, a purpose-built innovation company dedicated to electrifying and decarbonizing the world’s energy system. Drawing on more than 130 years of experience tackling the world’s energy challenges, the company’s installed base produces about 25% of the world’s electricity, from wind and hydropower to gas-powered and grid solutions. The company built a solid foundation for a strong and sustainable future in its first year.

A decade ago, disruptive change came to power grids. Aging coal plants in Europe and the U.S., some in operation since World War II, began to retire. Saddled with high maintenance costs, coal plants were shuttered throughout the developed world. In their place rose new fleets of wind turbines, dotting the American plains from Texas to Iowa. In Europe, wind power blossomed onshore but also extended its reach offshore, thriving in the Continent’s notoriously stormy seas.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (March 4, 2025) – GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) and Amazon Web Services, Inc (AWS), an Amazon.com, Inc. company (NASDAQ: AMZN), today announced the signing of a strategic framework agreement (SFA) aimed at supporting AWS’s data center scaling, and collaborating to address increasing global energy demand, advance grid security and reliability, and decarbonize electric power systems.

Through this collaboration, GE Vernova will provide AWS with new offerings across a broad scope of solutions to electrify and decarbonize data centers across North America, Europe, and Asia, including:

• Electrification Systems: GE Vernova will continue to provide AWS with turnkey substation solutions to enable connectivity of AWS data centers to the grid, including expansion of major electrical equipment, project management, and construction support, across multiple sites globally. AWS and GE Vernova engineering teams will continue to work together to optimize data center substation design and delivery.

In Türkiye, demand for electricity is surging. With a growing — and urbanizing — population, the country ranks 15th in the world in annual energy production, outpacing several nations with much larger populations.

The wild Baltic Sea has produced its share of historic storms, and in the fall of 2023 it unleashed another titanic surge that pounded Germany’s north coast, causing 200 million euros’ worth of damage. But heavy weather is not enough to deter Germany in its quest to secure low-carbon energy; indeed, the same forces that drove that storm of the century in 2023 can be harnessed to produce electricity.

A familiar sound of modern life is the mobile phone’s tap-tap-tap as we pound out searches for the nearest drugstore or the fastest way home. But search, which has historically been free to use and cheap to provide, is about to get more power hungry. That’s because a single AI-driven query triggers ten times as much needed electricity as traditional search, according to researchers at Goldman Sachs.

Singapore has always been synonymous with progress. Upon becoming independent in 1965, the Asian island nation adopted “Majulah Singapura,” the Malay for “Onward Singapore,” as its motto and national anthem.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (November 20, 2024) - GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) today announced that One Grid Operation AS has purchased its GridOS® orchestration software to help deliver more secure, reliable, and sustainable electricity to customers. One Grid Operation is owned by two of Norway’s distribution system operators, Tensio AS and Linea AS.

GridOS is the first software portfolio designed specifically for grid orchestration. It’s comprised of a platform and suite of applications enabling secure, reliable grid orchestration while also delivering the resiliency and flexibility utilities need to modernize and transform to a sustainable energy grid. By selecting GridOS, One Grid Operation will have a modern solution with several key components:

• A built-in Zero Trust security model to help protect resources from inside and outside threats.
• The first grid-specific data fabric enabling operators to integrate traditionally siloed data across operational technology (OT), information technology (IT), and external sources (e.g. weather). This provides the foundation for utilities to use artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) to automate grid operations, which is likely to prove crucial to adopting renewables at scale. GridOS Data Fabric builds on GE Vernova’s acquisition of Greenbird Integration Technology AS in 2023.
• Composable, intelligent grid applications. One Grid Operation plans to implement GE Vernova’s Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS) for secure management of the distribution grid and Distributed Energy Resource Management System (DERMS) for managing a broad array of distributed energy resources (DERs), such as wind power, battery storage, electric vehicles, and more.

One Grid Operation plans to implement GE Vernova’s GridOS orchestration software over the next three years. The company has chosen to utilize a hybrid cloud strategy, with ADMS deployed on-premise and the other GridOS applications running in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud. This strategy helps to enable One Grid Operation to meet energy demands with greater speed and agility by unlocking data, increasing visibility, and accelerating decision-making. Once the implementation is complete, the company will deliver grid control room services to owners Tensio and Linea. “This is a big and important milestone for us,” said Anna Nysetvold, CEO of One Grid Operation. “I look forward to embarking on this journey with Tensio and Linea’s skilled teams and in close collaboration with GE Vernova.”

Tensio and Linea formed One Grid Operation to achieve the highest standard of excellence when it comes to supplying electricity in Norway. Tensio is the country’s third largest power grid company and operates the regional and distribution network in the central county of Trøndelag. Linea is responsible for delivering power to over 46,700 customers in Helgeland in Northern Norway.

“The energy landscape is getting more complex by the day. Demand for electricity is at an all-time high, extreme weather events are becoming more common, and renewable but intermittent energy sources are on the rise. To deal with these types of change drivers while continuing to deliver on the efficiency and security of our supply, we clearly see the need to significantly strengthen ourselves on the technology side,” Audhild Kvam, CEO of Tensio, and Steinar Benum, CEO of Linea, noted in a joint statement. “After a lengthy market assessment, we’re pleased to announce we’ve selected GE Vernova to support us in enabling smarter, better, more efficient management of our electricity supply and operations in the years to come.”

Mahesh Sudhakaran, General Manager of GE Vernova’s Grid Software business, stated, “GE Vernova is delivering a new era of energy, and a key tenant of how we’re doing that is with our GridOS orchestration software. We’re proud to be the technology partner of choice for One Grid Operation. Our data integration team in Oslo and global power system experts look forward to advancing capabilities that’ll help Tensio and Linea deliver more secure, reliable, and sustainable electricity to their customers.”
