2. GE India Technology Center
Over 6000 scientists, researchers and engineers are helping redefine what is
possible in the energy, transportation, aviation, healthcare, and consumer
and industrial business. In addition to Bangalore, Mumbai, Chennai and
Hyderabad in India, GE has Research Centers in New York IUS), Shanghai
(China), Munich (Germany) and Rio De Janeiro (Brazil) that are helping create
game-changing technologies and innovations to ensure GE's growth and
leadership.
4. Hyderabad Technology Center (HTC), a part of the Energy Engineering Division & India Engineering operations is a
global engineering team located in Hyderabad, India. The 720+ strong team is a vibrant mix of young and experienced
engineers across different domains with experience drawn from different industry verticals. HTC, based out of three
locations in Hyderabad has complete engineering responsibility on some of the ‘In India for India’ products like Air
Circuit breaker for Industrial Solutions, EMS systems for Industrial and utility applications apart from leading the
programs and projects for global customers. HTC is among the top five sites for Energy Engineering in terms of total
number of engineers and is developing itself to be the center of excellence in the areas of Software, Electronics Design,
Embedded Systems design and electromechanical design for Energy products and services.
5. Mumbai Technology Center (MTC) is a key product development site for the Measurement & Controls business in GE
Oil & Gas and the Monitoring & Diagnostics business of GE Power & Water. The team of over 150 experienced engineers
develops cutting edge software and firmware for the market leading Bently Nevada asset condition monitoring and
management products that help our customers manage their critical and essential assets in the oil and gas and power
generation industries. The team also develops solutions for monitoring GE’s fleet of gas and steam turbines.
The MTC teams with domain expertise established over the last 20 years, leverage cutting edge agile development and
design methodologies, technical practices, state-of-the-art tools and product platform strategies for leadership in the
industry.
6. Engineering Development Center (EDC), Chennai was set up when GE’s Power Conversion business established its
presence in India in 2005. To bring the benefits of power conversion’s solutions to a wider range of customers in India,
a commercial organization was established in 2009. Over 600 professionals are employed in India assuring
customers of a truly localized Power Conversion offering to fit their needs.
EDC is one of the largest engineering centers for power conversion. The center employs highly skilled engineers who
provide engineering and services support to projects across the globe and the Indian market. The Indian operation
supports the three power conversion platforms, namely, rotating machines, power electronics and control &
automation supported by systems and projects engineering; value engineering & technology (R&D); and engineer
productivity & process practice. The engineering center has deep domain expertise in Energy, Industry, Motors and
Marine. In addition to providing engineering and services support, the center is involved in power conversion India’s
‘In Country, For Country’ product localization initiatives.
7. The John F. Welch Technology Center (JFWTC) in Bangalore is GE's largest integrated Research and Development
Engineering Center. JFWTC continues to add breadth and depth in key technology areas, and has contributed to
developing a number of innovative technologies either as part of global teams or independently, including:
• Component design and analyses for the H turbine, which is the world’s most efficient gas turbine.
• Development of an advanced combustor system, with reduced NOx and 20% increased efficiency of fuel burn, for the
GEnx engine.
• Development of a Smart Axle Counter System for the Indian Railways Signaling System.
• Development of a dual flame stacked burner for the Profile 36” Built-In Gas Cooktop, resulting in increased heat input
and greater turndown ratio.
• Development of flexible, eco-friendly polymers for submersible pump wire, replacing polyvinyl chloride (PVC), for the
Indian market.
• MAC 400 Ultra portable ECG for the Indian market – complete design, development and manufacturing.
