4. Build with oxide fuel cell technology,
distributed power generator
Electro-chemical process oppose to
combustion
Bloom Energy Server
100kW of power - 1MW or more
Baseload needs to 100 average homes
or a small office building
Day and night
Footprint – standard parking space
More energy – Add additional energy
servers
6. Bloom Energy servers
Each server is the
equivalent size of
one parking spot.
Cost Up to $800,000
per unit
Can sell excess
(unused) energy
back to power
company

9. FUEL CELL TECHNOLOGY
Use low cost materials – cells use a
common sand like power instead of
precious metals like platinum or corrosive
materials like acids
High electrical efficiency – convert fuel
into electricity at nearly twice the rate of
legacy technologies
Fuel flexibility – systems are capable of
using either renewable or fossil fuels
Reversible – capable of both energy
generation and storage
