Just on 60 Minutes "The interwebs are aflutter with excitement over Bloom Energy's top secret "Bloom Box" fuel cell system finally revealing itself. For those who haven't already checked it out (the website is still just a marquee), the company boasts that their systems could literally replace the electricity grid with dispersed, clean, and easy to maintain fuel cell boxes running on a variety of fuels, water, and oxygen, with no combustion at all."
"Here's what we know about its actual technology: the Bloom Box is based largely on a solid-oxide fuel cell (that can run on biomass or natural gas) developed by scientists at NASA and is made out of cheaper materials than those built by its competitors (at least according to company PR). The device is also said to withstand a wider range of temperatures, making it suitable for a wide array of applications (even the space shuttle)." http://www.bloomenergy.com/ http://www.ecogeek.org/content/view/411/ http://green.venturebeat.com/2010/02/19/fuel-cell-maker-bloom-energy-finally-sheds-cloak-of-mystery-this-sunday/ Google the following: - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - bloom energy fuel cell - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=bloom+energy+fuel+cell&aq=1sx&aqi=g-s1g-sx2g-s1g-sx6&oq=bloomenergy
