A Fox News affiliate in Albany, N.Y., has a piece on the opening of General Electric's new renewable energy headquarters in Schenectady, N.Y. The plant formerly housed gas turbine production, but after a $45 million makeover has been converted to house the remote operations center for GE Renewable Energy, which monitors the company's 12,000 wind turbines. A $100 million battery plant for GE Transportation is slated to be built next door in the next few years.
