- Type
- Company
- Where it sits
- On-site fuel cells are one way to power a data centre while a grid connection is pending or limited.
- Constraint
- The AEP agreement announced in November 2024 was an agreement of up to 1 GW with an initial 100 MW order, so most of that capacity is announced rather than delivered (company release).
What we checked
- Bloom announced on 14 November 2024 a supply agreement with AEP of up to 1 GW of fuel cells for AI data centres, with an initial 100 MW order. (source)
- The same release says Bloom had previously deployed more than 1.3 GW of fuel cells. (source)
