GE Vernova Guides 2028 Revenue to $52B; Backlog Hits $135B with 70GW Orders
GE Vernova’s backlog hit $135B in late 2025 with gas turbine orders nearing 70GW, and the company projects growing backlog to $200B by 2028. Q3 organic revenue climbed 10% and Investor Day guided 2028 revenue of $52B, 20% EBITDA margin, while dividend was doubled and $1B allocated to electrification capex.
1. Independent Energy Technology Leader
GE Vernova emerged as a standalone energy technology company in 2024 after spinning off from its former parent. It now operates a diverse installed base of gas, steam and wind turbines along with grid infrastructure that together generate over one quarter of global electricity. This extensive footprint provides recurring revenues from equipment sales, maintenance contracts and modernization projects, underpinning a stable revenue stream as demand for reliable power continues to grow worldwide.
2. Robust Backlog and Capital Deployment
As of late 2025, GE Vernova’s order backlog stood at $135 billion, driven largely by surging demand for its efficient gas turbines and grid solutions. Management has guided that backlog could expand to $200 billion by 2028. The gas turbine segment alone has nearly 70 GW of signed orders and slot reservations, reflecting strong forward visibility. The company plans to invest over $1 billion in its Electrification unit through 2028 to support rapid deployment and capture market share in power distribution and charging infrastructure.
3. Financial Momentum and Growth Outlook
In the most recent quarter, GE Vernova delivered 10% organic revenue growth with notable margin expansion, contributing to year-to-date revenues of $37.67 billion. Net income reversed to a $1.7 billion profit, driving a sector-leading return on equity of 18.8%. At its Investor Day, the company raised its 2028 targets to $52 billion in revenues and a 20% EBITDA margin, while announcing a doubled dividend. These metrics underscore management’s confidence in sustained cash flow generation and shareholder returns as AI-driven data center build-out and grid electrification accelerate energy demand.
