GE Vernova to Acquire Robotech Automation to Expand Robotics Integration

GE Vernova Inc., a global energy company, yesterday said it has signed an agreement to acquire Robotech Automation, a specialized systems integrator, to accelerate its robotics and automation capabilities. Robotech offers in-house design, engineering, and integration capabilities supported by a network of trusted manufacturing partners. The private company employs about 35 people and is based in Longueuil, Quebec, near Montreal.

"Robotech brings exactly the kind of specialized talent, proprietary systems, and hands-on integration expertise that will accelerate what we're building in robotics and automation at GE Vernova," said Scott Strazik, GE Vernova CEO. "GE Vernova is committed to advancing our capabilities in areas that are critical to how we operate and compete with excellence, and this acquisition is a focused, strategic step to add key talent, accelerate our organic programs, and establish a world-class robotics deployment capability within our Advanced Research Center." GE Vernova includes power, electrification, and wind segments and is supported by its accelerator businesses. Building on over 130 years of experience, the company said it is helping to lead the energy transition by continuing to electrify the world while simultaneously working to decarbonize it.

Cambridge, Mass.-based GE Vernova spun out of General Electric in 2024 and has approximately 85,000 employees across approximately 100 countries. The company added that its technology will provide a more affordable, reliable, sustainable , and secure energy future. GE Vernova noted that its presence in Canada spans more than 130 years, with over 2,400 employees across six manufacturing and office locations.

"From coast to coast to coast, we support customers with end-to-end solutions across power generation, transmission, conversion, storage, and grid orchestration, including building the Western world's first small modular reactor with Ontario Power Generation in Toronto," said the company. "Today, our technologies help generate approximately 43% of Canada's electricity, powering communities, industries, and a more resilient energy future for generations to come." The transaction would augment ongoing robotics and automation efforts within GE Vernova's Advanced Research Center (ARC). Robotech would deploy systems across the company's supply chain to improve safety, quality, delivery, and cost outcomes.

While the companies did not disclose financial terms, they said they expect the transaction to close in early third quarter of 2026, subject to certain closing conditions.
