A Bloom Energy Case Study
FedEx, a global shipping leader, collaborated with Bloom Energy to address the need for cleaner, more reliable, and more affordable power at a key operations hub. The challenge was to meet the facility's energy demands more sustainably while improving dependability and controlling costs, leading them to adopt Bloom Energy's solid oxide fuel cell technology.
Bloom Energy implemented a 500kW distributed energy solution using its fuel cells at the FedEx Oakland Hub. This installation, which worked in conjunction with existing solar power, was expected to achieve a full return on investment within five years. The project from Bloom Energy was also projected to reduce the site's carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 30 percent.
