7Extend* package: Life extension strategies for a high-demand energy era

As electricity demand continues to rise—projected to grow nearly 4% annually through 2027, according to the International Energy Agency—new gas turbine installation rates have not kept pace, leaving power producers with added pressure to maintain high reliability while balancing aging assets and operational costs.

Join Jay Bryant, GE Vernova 7E Product Manager to unpack the risk factors driving gas turbine wear, the role of refurbishment and replacement in risk mitigation, and how GE Vernova’s 7Extend upgrade package can support cost-effective, gas turbine longevity.

During this session, you will:

• DISCOVER: Why non-recoverable degradation is a key threat to gas turbine longevity—and why proactive refurbishment or replacement can be a promising solution.

• EXPLORE: Common wear patterns throughout the gas turbine lifecycle, and how 7Extend upgrades target them to preserve long-term reliability.

• LEARN: The benefits of the latest 7EA/7E.03 gas turbine enhancement products, formulated to upgrade performance through increased output, and its compelling return on investment.
