Two weeks ago, GE said that it intends to split Power into two units: GE Gas Power, comprising the Gas Power Systems and Power Services divisions, and GE Power Portfolio, which will hold Power’s Steam, Grid Solutions, GE Hitachi Nuclear and Power Conversion operations. The company also announced that it intends to consolidate the current Power headquarters structure into GE Gas Power to create a more simplified business structure that can best serve its customers.

John G. Rice: Opportunities for Global Electricity Access in 2016

John G Rice GE
January 21, 2016

We are at the start of a power revolution. The coming year presents a number of opportunities to take action to improve global access to electricity.


 

The world has made great progress over the past several decades. Primary education is becoming almost universal in many regions, child mortality rates have fallen globally, and life expectancy has risen in most countries. To maintain this momentum we need a sustained commitment to invest in infrastructure that provides people access to healthcare, water and most crucially, electricity.

Global Trade—Expanding the Future of Flight

In April 2014 for the first time in nearly 50 years a sitting U.S. president visited Malaysia to broaden economic ties in the region. As always, he flew there aboard the blue and white Boeing 747 the world knows as “Air Force One.”
This iconic symbol of American aviation is powered by four of GE Aviation’s CF6 turbofan engines. What some people may not realize is that the same engine family is now driving the expansion of one of Asia’s fastest growing airline companies.

Conversation from Davos: John Rice and John Negroponte

January 30, 2014
A dramatically growing, global middle class is becoming a “demand generator” for companies “because they want infrastructure, healthcare and good, stable electricity,” said John G. Rice, GE’s Vice Chairman and President and CEO of GE Global Growth Operations.
Rice’s comments came in a wide-ranging video conversation with former U.S. Ambassador John Negroponte last week during the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos.

Karan Bhatia: GE Must Grow Globally Too, To Compete

The numbers tell the story. 95 percent the world’s population lives outside the United States. The rapidly growing emerging markets will account for half of the world’s GDP within the next three years.
In 2011, 60 percent of GE’s sales were outside the U.S, representing a three-fold increase in exports over the last 10 years. In order to compete, GE must grow both in the U.S. and globally. It’s the only way.

The fact is, when we are able to compete by doing things well all around the globe, we create jobs and value here in the United States and all over the world.
