If this product can do what he claims and power an American Home, this is revolutionary and on par with the Computer Processor or the Combustion Engine.

Remind me what the fuel source is. Natural gas? How does that get us off the grid?

Natural gas can be used but he claims other fuels (Diesel, Bio Diesel) can be used as well. They're still used but at a greatly reduced rate.

He also said this technology can use wireless transmission. Image how much money can be saved not having to maintain long distance transmission lines.

He's got large clients such as FedEx, WalMart, Staples, Google, Ebay, etc. testing this technology out. Ebay said these boxes account for 15% of their electrical power needs and have saved them Hundreds of Thousands of dollars so far.

The patents will prevent us goyim from ever owning them. Probably be used to power all our local FEMA Labor Camps we will use to make shoes for the Chinese.

Seems kind of stupid to only be making one per day.

Seeing as how it supposedly is the real-deal, they need to license manufacturing of them to others so we can get people building them by the tens of thousands per day.

Then, if they only licensed to American companies, just imagine how many people could be put to work. Think of the exports.
....but no, they'll just plod along at one per day so as to keep the price maximized.

It's a fuel cell. Bloom energy has no exclusive rights to fuel cells.

Many fuel cells currently use palladium. :)

I don't care about off the grid as much as I care about not buying fuel from other countries. While oil is trading at almost triple digits, nat gas is (for now at least) cheap and plentiful.

Gotta sell China our nat gas fields when they demand spending our dollars on something real.
