Building on that 131-year legacy, GE’s future independent public companies, GE Vernova and GE Aerospace, will be discussing and demonstrating advanced technologies this week at the 2023 United Nations Climate Change Conference, or COP28, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Amid technical breakthroughs and new public-private partnerships, it’s clearer than ever that technology will be the key to solving climate change, accelerating decarbonization, and transitioning to cleaner energy. 

GE Aerospace engineers joined a newly released episode of a renewable fuels podcast to speak to the role the company’s new aircraft engine technologies in development could play in reducing flight emissions, as well as how GE Aerospace is supporting SAF testing and qualification with its engines.

This week at the Oshkosh air show in Wisconsin, the world’s largest air show, GE Aerospace debuted its new livery design for the aircraft testbed for NASA’s Electrified Powertrain Flight Demonstration (EPFD) project, a landmark effort to help prove the feasibility of hybrid electric flight for commercial aviation.

Meet identical twins Laura Schreibeis and Lisa Kitko have called GE Aerospace their career home. Lisa's daughter Nicole Kitko recently joined the company in 2022 as an engineer as well. Though all three women work in different facets of the business, it only adds to their knowledge, allowing each of them the opportunity to learn about myriad aspects of the company and how they intertwine.

Fighting fires and flying planes are not phrases you often hear together, but these things collide in the aviation industry where there are a host of diverse job opportunities. During a recent event held by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA), a young GE Aerospace engineer, Brendan Freely, joined a group of peers onstage to talk about what excites them about careers in aviation.

After years of maturing components of high-power hybrid electric systems, GE announced its latest testing milestone at this week’s Farnborough International Airshow.

Today’s aviation industry relies on technology that’s rooted in NASA’s research. This week at Farnborough, NASA will spotlight its work on sustainable aviation and the advances it's making with partners like GE to develop quieter, safer and more efficient technologies that promise to change the future of commercial air travel.

When it comes to the future of flight, sustainability is at the core. GE Aviation has technologies available now and is developing new technologies to reduce CO2 emissions.
