The company also offers Bloom Electrolyzers for hydrogen production. KR Sridhar is the founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer.
Bloom Energy has recently expanded its manufacturing capabilities, including a new research and technical center and a global hydrogen development facility in Fremont, California. The company is actively expanding its manufacturing capacity, enhancing hydrogen and carbon capture technologies, and forming strategic alliances to meet the growing demand for clean, distributed energy solutions. Recent news includes exceeding Q4 2025 earnings expectations, with revenue reaching approximately $778 million and an EPS of $0.45. For FY 2026, Bloom Energy projects revenues of $3.1 billion to $3.3 billion and adjusted EPS of $1.33 to $1.48. The company's market position is strengthening, driven by increasing demand from data centers and commercial & industrial (C&I) customers, leading to a significant backlog growth.
