THE FUTURE OF ENERGY
In this three-part series, we explore the future of energy. With host Mikey Kay and a camera crew in tow, we set off to meet some of the most inspiring people and innovative technologies in the energy industry today. Going to new places, capturing the textures, the emotions, the sounds and the flavors of the world—here are their stories.
THE FUTURE OF ENERGY
With nearly 1 billion people lacking access to electricity around the world, innovative solutions are required to reach them. From large scale power plants to decentralized solutions, the future of energy will require a mix of technologies. In this film, our host Mikey Kay travels through bustling metropolitan centers and remote off-grid villages to explore how Ethiopia is empowering communities through investment in power infrastructure.
THE FUTURE OF ENERGY
For years, Pakistan had a severe energy shortage with rolling power outages lasting up to 18 hours a day, but new power technologies and international partnerships are energizing growth. In this film, our host Mikey Kay travels to Asia to discover the difference global collaboration has made for the people of Pakistan.
THE FUTURE OF ENERGY
In a region fueled by the oil under its sands, outlooks are changing. Countries across the Middle East are beginning to embrace a mix of energy sources — from wind and solar to storage and natural gas. Join our host Mikey Kay as he takes a journey across the region to see how innovative tech and human ingenuity are powering change and a hopeful future.
In this series of videos, join us as we explore the changing energy ecosystem across the globe and the need for a diverse energy mix. Discover how GE’s comprehensive energy portfolio and innovative technologies are transforming lives in places like Iraq, Indonesia and Ethiopia.

IN PARTNERSHIP WITH COURAGEOUS STUDIOS
Some of the greatest moments of innovation and progress happen when the camera isn’t rolling. In a series of articles, we take an in-depth look at the technology and people that are creating a more reliable, efficient energy future in our increasingly decentralized, decarbonized, and digitalized world.
100 Points of Power
In June 2018, GE reached a significant milestone in Sub-Saharan Africa: the installation of their 100th power plant in the region. Take a closer look at some of the major milestones along the way in this interactive timeline.
Full Steam Ahead
Power for the equivalent of 3.5 million households. More than $18 billion rand (1.3 billion US dollars) invested in the local economy. Thousands of jobs created. In this photo essay, meet some of the extraordinary GE professionals powering change in South Africa.
Rebuilding Iraq
Meet Sura Noori, GE Power engineer who helped to bring power back to a city that had been cloaked in darkness during over four years of ISIS occupation.

This has always been my dream
Earlier this year, GE Power delivered a major upgrade for India’s power grid: a Wide Area Monitoring System (WAMS) which allows engineers to track power flow across 110 substations in the country’s Northern Grid.

Lightning in a bottle
Batteries energized the first wave of scientific research into electricity. But renewable energy has made grid-scale energy storage, like the GE Reservoir, an important part of our energy future.

Developing Digital Twins
Afo Adéyè leads a team of engineers using GE Digital Twin technology to monitor thousands of power assets across Europe. Learn how predictive analytics informed by GE’s software are driving better outcomes for power producers.
