    • TransmissionAI data-center power demand may support interest in Bloom Energy's on-site fuel-cell systems, while valuation and profitability challenges remain.
    • SummaryBloom Energy is positioned for 85% projected revenue expansion on surging demand for on-site solid oxide fuel cells. AI facilities require continuous baseload power that local electrical utilities are unable to deliver under standard interconnection timelines. On-site generation provides an immediate bridge solution despite higher capital costs per megawatt compared to traditional utility power.
