Inside a vast, 69,000-square-foot engine shop situated on the southern edge of the Cincinnati-Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG), a small group of GE Aerospace mechanics and college co-op students huddle around a GEnx engine. An engineer is demonstrating how to use a prototype ultrasonic wrench. As the mechanics crane their necks to observe, the engineer deploys the vibrating wrench to loosen a specific type of bolt that can cause damage to a part in the engine’s combustion case if not handled properly.

Any GE Aerospace employee who has spent the day at Avio Aero’s plant in Pomigliano d’Arco, Italy, would probably agree that two aspects of the workplace are unimprovable: the view and the food. The GE-owned plant in northeast Naples, which manufactures blades, combustors, and other components for some of the world’s largest jet engines, looks out on Mount Vesuvius, the volcano that buried Pompeii in ash two millennia ago.

Back in 2017, GE engineers surprised the world when they took what was then the world’s most powerful jet engine and used its technology to turn it into a power plant that could be capable of generating enough electricity for thousands of households. This feat got plenty of attention, but the team was not finished. A new GE team has now turned the machine into yet another example of the power of innovation.

In the last half-century, the GE Gas Power plant in Greenville, South Carolina, has experienced the same kind of dizzying roller coaster ride as the city where it’s located. Founded some 200 years ago on the Reedy River, Greenville grew into a textile manufacturing hot spot and a paragon of Southern hospitality — until the 1970s, when the city’s downtown took a turn. Mills closed, hotels shuttered, and the clattering trams carrying riders on shopping errands and to business lunches fell silent.
