I agree with OP that the name, while maybe not deliberately, is really confusing in 2026. I thought that was a wind turbines or a solar panel technology, definitely not gas.

And it takes all of 30seconds to look up instead of posting sarcastic hyperbole that the company is trying to greenwash their product by name when it’s a 100 year old company name.

Confusing as it may be for people like yourself, I don’t think it really defends posting sarcasm that is not based in reality.

I didn't really think it was greenwashing, just hilarious to have one of the largest gas turbine companies in the world named "solar turbines"

You can call this whatever you want.

It's 2026 - they should change their fucking name.

		How did that work out for X? I mean, Twitter. Or Meta? You mean Facebook? Name recognition matters especially to people in particular segments.
