Case Study: Staples reduces cost and carbon with Bloom Energy

Staples cuts carbon 7% with Bloom Energy while generating 2 million kWh at 99% availability

Staples, Inc., a major office products retailer, faced the challenge of reducing its carbon emissions while providing the majority of power for its large distribution centers. To meet this goal, Staples evaluated multiple energy sources and ultimately selected Bloom Energy's fuel cell solution.

Bloom Energy implemented its servers at two Staples distribution centers in California, with installations of 300kW in Ontario and 600kW in Rialto. The initial 300kW project alone generated over 2 million kilowatt-hours of power with 99% availability in its first year. This resulted in a significant reduction of 2.5 million pounds of carbon dioxide emissions for the customer, demonstrating the measurable impact of the Bloom Energy solution.
