Prairie Power: In Oklahoma, One of the World’s Largest Wind Farms Just Began Spinning

Will Palmer

Ninety years ago, Oklahoma was at the heart of the region torn apart by the Dust Bowl, a result of economic policies, shifting weather and overplowing that allowed the open plains’ high winds to sweep through and whip the earth into massive dust storms. Today those same winds are helping to bring that land back into productive use — and contributing to a cleaner atmosphere in the process.

Closing The Loop: Group Unveils A Prototype Of A Recyclable Wind Turbine Blade

Tomas Kellner
March 16, 2022

Wind has been powering the world’s energy transition to a more sustainable future, but the turbines that convert wind energy into electricity come with their own carbon footprint. As a result, companies that make turbine components have tried to make the footprint smaller.

Circular Economy: Wind Turbine Blade Maker Is Working To Turn Waste Into A Resource

Amanda Schupak
November 29, 2021

Wind energy is a powerful tool for shrinking the world’s carbon footprint. Making the machines that convert wind into clean power, however, comes with its own footprint, as is true of any manufacturing industry.

Take the 13 global factories run by LM Wind Power, the GE Renewable Energy subsidiary. Among the blades they manufacture are wind turbine blades up to 107 meters in length for GE Renewable Energy’s Haliade-X offshore wind turbines. Just one turn of the turbine can generate enough energy to supply the equivalent of one U.K. home for two days.

Make It Big: GE Plant That Builds Football-Field-Long Wind Turbine Blades To Expand Production

Tomas Kellner
October 19, 2021

The blades for the Haliade-X, the most powerful wind turbine in operation, are a sight to behold. Longer than a football field, the sinuous blades stretch 107 meters from end to end, enabling them to wring megawatts of renewable energy from offshore winds.

Charged Up: This GE Tech Is Engineered To Speed Up Energy Transition

GE Reports Staff
August 09, 2021

Last year, GE made a commitment to becoming carbon-neutral in its own operations by 2030. In GE’s 2020 Sustainability Report, released this summer, the company is going even further, with an ambition to be net zero by 2050, including Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products. GE’s tradition of innovation will play a big role as engineers find new ways to help solve looming challenges like the energy transition to address climate change.

Solving The Energy Puzzle: GE Renewable Energy Chief Sees Big Things Ahead For Offshore Wind And The Grid

Will Palmer
July 19, 2021

The bipartisan infrastructure deal unveiled in June represents a historic moment for renewable energy advocates. The Biden administration hopes to spend $73 billion on upgrading the nation’s power grid to support renewables and $46 billion on manufacturing to support the growing industry, among other climate change initiatives. Many people in the industry see the proposal as a chance to make strides toward carbon reduction goals.
