Chief Executive Officer, President & Director, GE Vernova Inc. (GEV)

Ran GE's power business before the spin and has led GE Vernova since it began trading on 2 April 2024. His pitch is that electricity demand is now a long-cycle growth market rather than a mature one, and the company is monetising it through gas turbine slot reservation agreements booked years ahead of delivery: combined gas equipment backlog and slot reservations went from 83 GW at the end of 2025 to 116 GW by the second quarter of 2026, and he now guides to at least 125 GW under contract by year-end 2026 with annual gas turbine output rising from 20 GW in 2026 to 30 GW in 2030.

Bernstein 42nd Annual Strategic Decisions Conference 2026

Framed GE Vernova as an installed-base business rather than an equipment cycle: 7,000 gas turbines, 59,000 wind turbines and 60 nuclear plants already generate about 25% of the world's electricity and roughly half of America's, carrying an $87 billion services backlog he expects to produce about $20 billion of services revenue by 2027. The $76 billion equipment backlog has grown 80% since the April 2024 spin, and he argued the 100 GW of gas on contract is mostly baseload against an installed base where only 200 of 720 GW runs baseload today - a figure he projects doubling to at least 400 GW by the middle of the next decade.
