Mobile GE Gas Turbine to Supply Energy in Cold, War-Torn Ukraine
As Ukrainian electrical crews — working day and night, often in the face of military bombardment — take up the mantle of frontline defenders, GE Gas Power is helping by working with its customers to provide crucial power generation technologies.
A GE TM2500 aeroderivative gas turbine was recently shipped to Ukraine from Arizona on a Ukrainian Antonov cargo plane to help support emergency power needs in the country. The portable turbine was purchased by USAID, the United States government’s humanitarian and foreign aid agency, to help Ukraine restore power where it’s needed most.
“GE is uniquely positioned to be able to support Ukraine in their infrastructure rebuilding efforts, and our mobile aero technology has a proven track record for emergency power response situations due to its mobility, reliability, and flexibility,” says Aman Joshi, the general manager of GE’s aeroderivatives business at GE Gas Power, which is part of GE Vernova. The arrangement with USAID, he adds, “is really symbolic of the kind of support GE can provide to countries that are in need of urgent power infrastructure.”
