Bloom Energy, a Silicon Valley start-up, plans to unveil an energy device Wednesday that the company hopes will be in almost every US home in the next five to 10 years.
The Bloom box is a new kind of fuel cell that produces electricity by combining oxygen in the air with any fuel source, such as natural gas, bio-gas, and solar energy, creating energy without burning or combustion. Several devices are already being used by about 20 well-known companies.
