Bloom Energy
Bloom Energy (BE) is a publicly traded Distributed Generation company founded in 2001 and based in San Jose, United States.
Bloom Energy was founded in 2001 and is headquartered in San Jose, United States. The company builds solid oxide technology in two product lines. The Bloom Energy Server converts natural gas or biogas into electricity on site through an electrochemical process without combustion, and is sized for individual buildings or large campuses. The Bloom Electrolyzer uses solid oxide electrolysis to split water into hydrogen and oxygen, using the same core cell technology. Its stated markets are data center operators, hospitals and manufacturers seeking primary or backup power, and green hydrogen producers and industrial users of hydrogen for refining, chemicals and fuel. The company is publicly listed under the ticker BE and operates in the Distributed Generation category of the energy sector.
Bloom Energy applies solid oxide fuel cell technology to two distinct needs: on-site electricity generation that does not depend on grid interconnection, and hydrogen production through electrolysis from renewable or low-carbon power. Its Bloom Energy Server is positioned for data centers, hospitals and manufacturers that require continuous power, and its Electrolyzer shares the same cell technology for hydrogen producers. The company's public listing and its operation with a workforce in the 1,000 to 5,000 range place it among established suppliers of distributed generation hardware.
