Episode notes

Vic Abate, chief executive of GE Vernova’s wind segment, discusses the company’s Haliade-X workhorse turbine and how long-term relationships with its customers will determine which markets it is deployed in.


Interviewed at WindEurope’s annual conference in Bilbao earlier this year, Abate talked about how GE Vernova can reconcile deep cuts to its onshore workforce with the urgent need to ramp up global wind power installation - in Episode 25 of the Wind Power podcast.


He explained the increasing role of AI in quality control for turbine components and why the company is paring down the number of markets it serves.

Finally, Abate gave his take on whether the wind industry should be concerned about the outcome of the US presidential elections in November.
