Bloom Energy Sees Improving Profitability, but Modest Backlog Growth

Brett Castelli

Bloom Energy's core product is its Bloom Energy Server, a distributed solution to meet commercial and industrial customers' 24/7 power needs.

Natural gas has historically been the dominant fuel, but we expect greater emphasis on biogas and hydrogen in coming years. In comparison with other fuel cell companies, Bloom's SOFC technology is best suited for stationary power applications.
