tonight’s 60 minutes finally blew some air on the fire surrounding bloom energy– a clean energy company that for years has been rumored to hold the key to our clean energy future. bloom energy’s fuel cell has caught the eye and captured the investment dollars (in the neighborhood of $400M) of silicon valley venture capitalists like john doerr of heavy hitter kleiner perkins (doerr is an original investor in little companies that could like amazon and google). the fuel cell is made from baked beach sand and is painted with green and black ink (a proprietary formula). some are hopeful but skeptical that this can take over the world –market watcher michael kanellos editor-in-chief of greentech media is cautiously optimistic but others are ready to give it a try– fedex, ebay, and walmart, google already own the bloom box (the container that holds modules of the fuel cells) and depend on the energy generated from the boxes to run critical business operations. bloom energy founder, k.r. sridharsee has big dreams and hopes to see a box on the lawn of the white house sitting next to the organic veggie garden. watch the clip below to learn more.
