NEW: hydraulic turbine by GE Renewable Energy

With about 60% of the global hydropower capacity in the world, Francis turbines are the most widely used type of hydro turbine. GE has continuously invested in R&D to increase turbine efficiency and developed specific product enhancements to improve machine performance. GE has successfully completed numerous installations of Francis turbines with outputs up to 800 MW, including the largest Francis turbines ever made - each with a runner diameter of 10 meters and weighing over 450 tons.

NEW: wind turbine by GE Renewable Energy

The electricity generated by a single ECO 100 wind turbine meets the power needs of 2,000 average European households and avoids the production of 9,000 tons of CO2 a year.

Makes the most of onshore wind resources The ECO 100 range of wind turbines offers high yield and leading efficiency across all wind classes, as well as optimized energy production and lower cost of electricity thanks to PowerOf3*. These large wind turbines – the ECO 100 has a swept area larger than an Airbus A380 – are the answer for projects that require both high en...
