GE Vernova, INNIO Land Huge Gas Turbine Orders for Data Centers

GE Vernova reported a Q2 2026 gas turbine order backlog of 116 GW, up from 100 GW earlier in the year, and said the combined backlog of orders and slot reservations is on track to reach 125 GW by year‑end. The company is already taking reservations for deliveries as far out as 2031, with about 20 % of its customers being data‑center operators.

In a separate announcement, INNIO secured a landmark 1.1 GW gas‑engine contract for a mega‑scale data‑center campus in the United States. The deal, one of the largest in the company's history, will use more than 200 Jenbacher J624 engines to provide behind‑the‑meter prime power for AI‑intensive workloads. Both companies highlighted the accelerating demand for reliable, on‑site gas power solutions from the data‑center sector.
