Goals / Remit
Baker Hughes is an energy technology, committed to taking energy forward-making it safer, cleaner, and more efficient for people and the planet. While we operate globally, Europe has been a key market and corporate home for Baker Hughes since the 19th century. Across the EU, Norway and the UK, Baker Hughes employs approximately 17,000 people, including in engineering, manufacturing, and research and development roles. Our Industrial Energy Technology business is headquartered in Florence, Italy, home to our largest single manufacturing complex and host to our flagship thought leadership and technology conference every year. We have technology centres of excellence for geothermal energy and nuclear technologies in Germany and France, respectively. Many of our products – such as gas and hydrogen turbines, compressors, liquefaction trains, electric motors, geothermal energy technologies, carbon capture and storage equipment – are developed and manufactured across Europe.

Meetings
Meetings
8 meetings found. Download meetings
The list below covers meetings with Commissioners/Cabinet members/Directors-general (high-level) Commission meetings published December 2014 to December 2024, and the meetings of Commissioners/Cabinet members/Directors-general and officials holding "management functions" in the Commission published since 1 January 2025. Other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may well have taken place, but the Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. All information below comes from the Commission and not from the registrant.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
