Two AEE members, Verizon and Bloom Energy, are planning to collaborate run Verizon's data centers on advanced energy. Bloom Energy, which builds fuel cells that can efficiently power data centers, is planning to install ten cells in a California facility. GigaOM reports:
The ten Bloom Energy fuel cells (200 kW each) will deliver more than 16 million kilowatt hours of electricity for Verizon in California per year, or a quarter of its clean power capacity plans.
