• Turbines to be built in GE Vernova’s Salzbergen factory, one of GE Vernova’s 13 locations across Germany
• Deal features a 20-year service agreement

SALZBERGEN, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GE Vernova (NYSE: GEV) announced today that it has signed an agreement with Stadtwerke Heidenheim AG to supply three of its 5.5 MW-158m onshore wind turbines for the Schlotberg-Jüchsen wind farm in Germany. The order includes a long-term service agreement of 20 years, underscoring the commitment of both companies to supporting Germany’s ambitious renewable energy goals.

The collaboration represents the sixth project between the two companies utilizing GE Vernova wind turbines. With this latest order, Stadtwerke Heidenheim’s fleet of GE Vernova’s workhorse turbines will grow to 74 MW of installed capacity in Germany. The delivery of the turbines is set to begin in August 2027, with commissioning scheduled for December 2027.

“We are delighted to build upon our long-standing engagement with Stadtwerke Heidenheim, a collaborator who remains as committed as we are to driving a secure and sustainable energy transition,” said Marcas Breatnach, Executive Sales Leader Northern Europe at GE Vernova. “By deploying our proven workhorse technology, available with ratings up to 6.5 MW and proudly produced at our Salzbergen facility, we are delivering high-performance, industry-tested solutions backed by over 38 million operating hours and more than 2,100 units globally. Our continued investment in Salzbergen reinforces our dedication to a robust, local supply chain, aiming to help ensure that Germany’s energy goals are supported by reliable, industrialized ‘Made in Germany’ technology.”

Raphael Kaim, Head of renewable Energy at Stadtwerke Heidenheim, added: “Given the project’s complex history and rigorous statutory deadlines, our primary goal was to secure a partner capable of guaranteeing rapid delivery and execution. Following unexpected delays, the timely construction and commissioning of these wind turbines was of absolute importance to protect the project’s viability. In GE Vernova, we have found a reliable partner whose short delivery times and technical strength enable us to successfully implement this project on schedule.”

GE Vernova’s onshore portfolio reflects a deliberate workhorse strategy — standardized, industrialized machines engineered for repeatable execution and long-term reliability. With more than 59,000 turbines operating globally, its experience informs the products it designs, manufactures, and deploys.
