What They Do

Bloom Energy specializes in solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) systems that facilitate distributed on-site power generation and hydrogen production. Their technology converts fuels such as natural gas, biogas, or hydrogen into electricity through an electrochemical process, eliminating combustion and enhancing efficiency (source: moomoo.com). The flagship product, the Bloom Energy Server, is a modular unit capable of delivering 100 kilowatts (kW) of power, designed to be scalable by stacking multiple units to meet larger energy demands, such as powering 100 average U.S. homes (source: bloomenergy.com). Additional products include the Bloom Electrolyzer for hydrogen production, alongside services like long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) and maintenance contracts (source: investing.com). Their target markets encompass utilities, data centers, agriculture, retail, healthcare, and education, with a sales strategy that includes both direct and indirect channels (source: vizologi.com).

Projects & Track Record

Since its first commercial installation in July 2008, Bloom Energy Servers have produced over 11 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity, enough to power 1,000 U.S. homes for a year (source: bloomenergy.com). Notable projects include installations at eBay Inc. headquarters, which were unveiled in 2010 with prominent figures such as California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and General Colin Powell in attendance (source: bloomenergy.com). The company has secured significant contracts, including a partnership with AEP Ohio for up to 1 gigawatt (GW) of SOFCs for data centers, starting with an initial order of 100 megawatts (MW) and plans for expansion by 2025 (source: cbinsights.com). Bloom Energy's geographic presence is primarily in the U.S., with ongoing international expansion supported by its San Jose headquarters, which serves as the global operations hub (source: salestools.io).

Recent Developments

In the past two years, Bloom Energy received PUCO approval on June 1, 2025, allowing AEP Ohio to deploy SOFC units at AWS and Cologix data centers, leveraging their previous agreement for 1GW of SOFCs (source: cbinsights.com). The company has also strengthened its board with the addition of members such as Cynthia J. Warner in 2023, Barbara J. Burger and Gary S. Pinkus in 2024, and Jim Hagemann Snabe in 2025, enhancing governance and strategic oversight (source: investing.com). While no specific acquisitions or mergers have been reported post-IPO, the ongoing influence of their technology milestones, such as the launch of the Bloom Energy Server in 2010, continues to shape their contract landscape (source: bloomenergy.com).
