GE Vernova (GEV) is giving investors another reason to focus on its long-term growth opportunity as surging electricity demand drives a sharp expansion in its order book. The company ended the second quarter of 2026 with a record $176 billion backlog, up $13 billion from the previous quarter, and CEO Scott Strazik recently said GE Vernova remains on track to reach $200 billion in 2027.
The milestone is arriving sooner than the company's earlier expectations, reflecting strong demand for gas power, electrification, and grid infrastructure as utilities and data center operators invest to meet rising power needs.
