GE Vernova Showcases Solutions to Help Accelerate Asia's Energy Transition at Enlit Asia 2024

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Oct. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- As countries across Asia look to progress on their energy transition amidst increasing climate action globally, GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) remains committed to addressing the energy trilemma of affordability, reliability and sustainability in the region and will participate as a Platinum Sponsor at the upcoming Enlit Asia 2024.

According to International Energy Agency, countries in Asia will use half of the electricity in the world in the year 2025.
