When Miguel Vicedo was a graduate engineering student in Chicago, he attended a career fair with one idea in mind: the bigger, the better. Large companies, from his perspective, meant large opportunities, especially for someone from a small town who longed to travel and experience different cultures.

Vicedo met a recruiter from GE Vernova and considered how the company checked all the boxes. It was multifaceted and international, a massive business producing giant machines. Sign me up, he said.

America’s demand for electric power is surging and, with it, the need to move electrons around the country. Nowhere is that trend more tangible than at GE Vernova’s Grid Solutions factory in Charleroi, Pennsylvania, a sprawling 332,000-square-foot facility that has been making high-voltage instrument transformers and high-voltage circuit breakers, key components of the electric grid for more than three decades.

Today, GE Vernova released its first quarter 2025 financial results. We had a strong start to 2025 with continued growth, margin expansion and significant cash generation, while executing our disciplined capital allocation strategy. We are reaffirming our 2025 financial guidance, including the impact of tariffs as currently outlined and resulting inflation, net of mitigating actions.

American author and activist Helen Keller once observed that “optimism is the faith that leads to achievement.” Could optimism itself, therefore, be harnessed as a strategy? GE Vernova thinks so. At just one year old, the standalone energy technology company is remaking itself into a key player in the global energy transition. Spearheaded by a big theme, The Energy of Change, the company believes a relentless, forward-looking optimism in its work culture is a powerful tool to meet the challenges of decarbonization.

Keeping up with changes that support customers’ needs and increase employee satisfaction is an important part of building the future at GE Vernova. Though working from different parts of the world, these three team members — who appeared today at the New York Stock Exchange opening bell to celebrate Earth Day — share values, and each one sets an example by bringing talent and enthusiasm to their work in building relationships with people from a variety of backgrounds and cultures.
