The basic idea behind the Bloom Box is to convert fossil fuels or hydrocarbons into electricity not by the means of burning, but by clean electrochemical physical processes much like everyday batteries. The only difference between the Bloom Box and battery is that the Bloom Box keeps running ; oh yeah, it keeps running for up to 10 - twelvemonths, not only that, it could be recharged with fuel and it could act as A battery anytime in the sense that it could store electricity.
At the minute only 100kW versions of the Bloom Box or the Energy Server are available that are mostly sold to large diligences. The cost of the 100kW Bloom Box is $750,000 and the medium running time of this Bloom Box is 10 classes. One of the companies that have become the first customers of Bloom Energy is Google.
Harmonizing to Bloom Energy 1kW versions of the Bloom Box would be discharged in the near future which would be sufficient for one household. The estimated price of that Bloom Box would be around $3000. That is obviously going to be a very scotch and environment friendly way to make electricity, and that is exactly what Bloom Energy has focused on ; clean gullible electricity production.
