What are the current energy trends in Asia?
The most significant factor driving the current energy landscape is a substantial uptick in energy demand. Historically, as countries developed, they became more energy efficient, leading to reduced consumption. What we are observing globally, and in particular in Asia, is the rapid increase in energy demand.
We are looking at a 90% increase in energy capacity and a 33% increase in generation just over the next 10 years. This is driven by economic growth, the electrification of various sectors like transportation and industry and the biggest factor at the moment, AI data centres.
What about India? How do you view the opportunity here?
India is an important country. Its actions and policies have a substantial impact on both the regional and global energy landscape. Within India, GE Vernova has a strong presence in terms of generation technologies and the traditional front as well.
To further enhance our energy mix, India must diversify beyond solar power. This includes exploring options like wind, gas, green hydrogen, conventional hydropower and advanced energy storage solutions like pumped-storage hydro (PSH).

Scale Stimulus
For technology start-ups, growth funding serves as the catalyst to scale, innovate, expand into new markets and make critical hires. New capital brings strategic value through investor expertise and industry network, customer introductions, helps maintain operational efficiency and mitigate cashflow challenges.The landscape of venture and growth financings in India has undergone a major shift since the pre-Covid era. The pandemic gave rise to a low-interest rate environment which saw an unprecedented inflow of capital into Indian start-ups with a very strong focus on high growth, often at the cost of high burn. Post-pandemic, the environment has seen a significant shift in focus towards sustainable growth, profitability and efficient unit economics.
