Additional information
The site comprises 135 refrigerator-size Bloom Energy servers—which are grouped in clusters in an open yard-along with a natural gas regulation station and stormwater management systems. The “Bloom boxes” installed on the site to generate power reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 40% to 100% compared with the U.S. grid and virtually eliminate emissions of sulfur oxide, nitrous oxide and other harmful smog-forming particulates.
