GE Vernova Inc. plans to reinspect every offshore wind-turbine blade the company has ever produced, after finding a “material deviation” at the factory supplying the component that recently broke at a US project under construction.

“We should have identified this prior to shipping” the blade, Chief Executive Officer Scott Strazik said in an interview Wednesday.
