GE Vernova supplies the turbines, Caterpillar's Solar Turbines division adds capacity, and the whole thing runs behind-the-meter, no ERCOT interconnection queue, no grid strain.

June 23, 2026

Chevron subsidiary Energy Forge One and Engine No. 1 will build and run the plant, targeting first power in 2028 and 2.67 GW total capacity, with GE Vernova supplying most turbines and Solar Turbines filling in.

June 18, 2026

Crusoe won a 360 MW gas permit in six days, then ordered 29 GE Vernova aeroderivative turbines toward 1 GW, choosing jet-engine units because combined-cycle turbines now carry seven-year lead times.

June 12, 2026

Blue Energy and GE Vernova are building a 2.5 GW Texas hybrid pairing BWRX-300 SMRs with HA gas turbines, gas online by 2030 while nuclear clears NRC review targeting 2032.
