What is an Energy Server? Built with our patented solid oxide
fuel cell technology, Bloom's Energy Server™ is a new class of
distributed power generator, producing clean, reliable,
affordable electricity at the customer site. Fuel cells are
devices that convert fuel into electricity through a clean
electro-chemical process rather than dirty combustion. They are
like batteries except that they always run. Our particular type
of fuel cell technology is different than legacy "hydrogen" fuel
cells in three main ways: - Low cost materials – our cells use a
common sand-like powder instead of precious metals like platinum
or corrosive materials like acids. - High electrical efficiency
– we can convert fuel into electricity at nearly twice the rate
of some legacy technologies - Fuel flexibility – our systems are
capable of using either renewable or fossil fuels Each Bloom
Energy Server provides 200kW of power, enough to meet the
baseload needs of 160 average homes or an office building... day
