- GE Vernova validated the LM2500XPRESS for fuel blends containing up to 50% hydrogen.
- The LM6000VELOX completed testing for 100% hydrogen capability in a single annular combustor configuration.
- The company has surpassed 11 million operating hours on hydrogen and hydrogen-blended fuels across its gas turbine fleet.
GE Vernova announced new hydrogen turbine milestones on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, at COP31 programming in Antalya, Türkiye. The company said testing at its dedicated hydrogen facility in Greenville, South Carolina, validated higher hydrogen capability across two aeroderivative gas turbine platforms.
According to the GE Vernova announcement, the LM2500XPRESS was validated for fuel blends containing up to 50% hydrogen in a Dry Low Emission configuration. The company said the package retains its ability to reach full power in five minutes or less, a feature aimed at applications that require rapid changes in output.
Separately, GE Vernova completed testing of the LM6000VELOX in a Single Annular Combustor configuration to validate operation with 100% hydrogen. The company said the tests addressed the combustion challenges associated with hydrogen while maintaining stable and reliable operation.
Greenville broadens development capacity
The testing facility forms part of a broader investment in GE Vernova's Greenville technology and manufacturing operations announced in 2025. The company said the dedicated laboratory increases its capacity to validate product improvements and can help reduce development lead times for hydrogen-ready power solutions.
GE Vernova said its gas turbine fleet has surpassed 11 million operating hours on hydrogen and hydrogen-blended fuels. More than 120 turbines have operated, or continue to operate, on fuels containing hydrogen, according to the company. The LM2500 has more than 1,150 units sold and more than 200 million operating hours, while the installed and shipped LM6000 base comprises nearly 1,350 units across approximately 60 countries.
The announcement broadens the potential use cases for GE Vernova's gas-power business. The company highlighted industrial facilities, data centers, utilities and grid operators as customers that may require fast-starting generation while preparing for lower-carbon fuels. The testing milestones strengthen the technology proposition, but future revenue conversion will depend on customer projects, commercial deployment and execution.
