Gas Turbine Technology and Availability is the subject of the DEC meeting on April 10, 2026. 

                                           Gas Turbines Are Back !
The power industry may be entering its biggest gas turbine boom since the early 2000s.
With AI and data centers driving unprecedented load growth, demand for reliable, dispatchable generation is surging—and gas turbines are once again in the spotlight. At its peak around 2000, GE was producing nearly 300 turbines per year. After a dramatic market downturn post-2003, the question now is: can the industry ramp back up to meet today’s demand?
Join us as a GE Vernova gas turbine sales leader shares insights on:
  • The latest gas turbine technologies
  • Market demand driven by AI and electrification
  • Supply chain realities and equipment availability
  • Whether manufacturers can scale production to meet this new wave
It’s an exciting—and uncertain—time in the power business. Don’t miss this inside look at what may be the start of a new supercycle.
