GE Renewable Energy has announced it secured over 7GW in onshore wind orders in 2016. The company had previously announced that GE’s Onshore Wind business booked over US$ 3 billion of orders in the fourth quarter alone, partly thanks to a strong market in the USA.
As part of these record results, GE Renewable Energy’s Onshore Wind signed agreements in 19 countries around the world, including orders in Japan, India and Germany. The business also booked orders in Greece and Saudi Arabia for the first time ever. GE’s onshore wind installed base now stands at nearly 57,000MW of global capacity.
