A new order for a GE Vernova 7HA gas turbine placed today would likely see delivery in late 2028 at the earliest, with potential delays extending to 2029–2030 depending on production ramp-up and order prioritization. GE Vernova’s 7HA high efficiency air-cooled gas turbine is one of the industry leaders among advanced class gas turbine offerings, boasts more than 2M hours of operating experience, and is available in three models—the 7HA.01 at 290 MW, the 7HA.02 at 384 MW, and the 7HA.03 at 430 MW. As of the second quarter of 2025, GE Vernova’s equipment backlog for its HA-class gas turbines (primarily the 7HA and 9HA models) stands at 29 gigawatts (GW). Overall gas power backlog, including services and slot reservations, has grown to 55 GW, with expectations to approach 60 GW by the end of Q3 2025. If you had a late 2028 turbine delivery then you would be lucky to get full power from it in 2030.
