Wind Turbines

Pioneering Wind Power

GE wind turbine technology features robust designs for long, reliable performance, variable speed control, independent blade pitch for reduced loads and cost-effective operation and unique WindVAR electronics for local grid support and improved transmission efficiencies. For the first time, wind turbines can remain online and feed reactive power to the electric grid right through major system disturbances with our low-voltage ride-thru technology.

Through our team's ingenuity and resolve we deliver cost-effective and reliable wind power today and diligently work to ensure its place in the world's energy portfolio.
