Definition
The term, in context
AI-assisted draft · approved dataset
Bloom Energy's solid-oxide fuel cells generate electricity through an electrochemical reaction with a fuel such as natural gas, rather than through combustion and a turbine. The modular units can be installed on-site as a self-contained microgrid, powering a data center campus directly instead of waiting on new grid interconnection capacity.
