Abstract :
It may describe itself as "a global infrastructure, finance and media company." but with interests from everyday light bulbs to fuel cell technology, and from carbon composites to cleaner, more efficient jet engines, General Electric Company (GE) knows that it can\´t succeed without also investing in research and development - including long- term research. The paper presents the efforts of GE\´s global research center which is committed not only for product lines\´ advanced technologies but also finding ways to alternative energy and environmental technologies.
