New green fuel-cell Bloom Box launched

Mar 18, 2010

A new fuel cell that many believe could revolutionize green energy has been unveiled. The Bloom Box is made of low cost materials and creates electricity on site using only oxygen and any other kind of fuel.

Creator Bloom Energy hopes the refrigerator–sized devices could replace energy grids within the decade. Many large companies are currently trialing the Bloom Box, including eBay, Amazon, and Staples.
