Gas Turbine and Hydrogen Technologies Grow Together

Emil Jafarli

The future of gas turbines and hydrogen are intricately intertwined. Gas turbine manufacturers know that they need their equipment to be ready to operate on higher levels of hydrogen as electrolysis technology advances, production projects come online, and clean hydrogen becomes more readily available to help end-users decarbonize their power systems.

The world’s leading gas turbine producers—Siemens Energy, GE Vernova, Ansaldo Energia, and Mitsubishi Power—are all actively investing in and advancing technologies that enable their turbines to burn higher percentages of hydrogen. These efforts include retrofitting existing gas turbine fleets, developing new H2-ready turbines, and partnering with clean hydrogen production projects.

Together, these manufacturers are not only preparing for a hydrogen-fueled future but are helping to drive the global energy transition. Their work is central to bridging today’s gas-based systems with tomorrow’s low-carbon, hydrogen-powered energy landscape.
