Case Study: Delmarva Power achieves clean, reliable baseload power with Bloom Energy

Delmarva Power deploys 30 MW with Bloom Energy to power 22,000 homes

Delmarva Power sought to enhance its renewable energy portfolio with a source of clean, reliable, and competitively priced baseload power for its customers in Delaware. To meet this challenge, the utility partnered with vendor Bloom Energy to deploy the company's Energy Servers.

Bloom Energy implemented a 30-megawatt utility-scale deployment of its fuel cell technology, which was installed at Delmarva substations. This solution from Bloom Energy provided round-the-clock power, reduced carbon emissions by approximately 50% compared to the local grid, nearly eliminated smog-forming particulates, and used a fraction of the water required by conventional generation. The project also supported the creation of a new Bloom Energy manufacturing center in Delaware, bringing innovation and jobs to the state.
