Hmmmm…so what’s the big deal about BE and why now? The answer here is pretty simple: AI and Data Centers which require voracious levels of reliable energy.
Example 1). Elon Musk recently decided to build a Super Computer in the Memphis, Tennessee area. The project requires immense levels of energy; which, has created a potential set back for the project:
AI/Data Centers need power. Lots of power. And the lots of power AI/Data Centers need has to be stable and consistently available. Moreover - AI Data Center energy needs only go up as time goes by which only exacerbates the current huge gigawatt gap we see today. So…to get to the heart of the issue: AI Data Centers not only need power - they need on-site power. Cue BE:
Here they come to save the day - mighty Bloom energy is on the way:
Quote from the Conf Call:
"… no longer do we see our customers, whether it is data centers or large factories, asking if on-site power is needed. That debate is over. The grid can only do so much in the short term, and without on-site power, people are not going to have power. That is no longer a question to us.”
Despite the market reaction to the Bloom Earnings Report - make no mistake: It was excellent. More to the point, the company exuded confidence throughout the CC with confidence that they will meet previous revenue projections and that demand for their on-site power solutions will only go stronger as AI Data Center power demands grows and grows.
Now…I don’t know jack about any of the technicals around all this…clueless really; however, while revenue has been really lumpy over the history of BE there is no doubt that local, on-site energy demands are becoming mission critical for a number of industries…energy that the local power grids struggle to meet and maintain. Which is exactly why BE has earned a position on the Growth Portfolio Scout Team.
All The Best.
