Seeing at the preview of the episode on CBS News’ web site, Bloom energy has by now has recruited a impressive roster of 20 early on customers, counting Wal-Mart, Google, eBay, and the big CIA itself. Some of them have already got fuel cells installed, that retails between $700,000 and $800,000. Some other information will be revealed on the show, and some more will be later in the next week’s press conference conducted by company.

Bloom energy has done exceedingly well to keep the technology of its bloom energy fuel cell under wrap. Even during more than a few fund raisers, a public assessment of its estimation at $1.45 billion, and the launch of circuitous competitor ClearEdge Power. ClearEdge power is a company which may find itself in hot water if Bloom dazzles viewers as predictable on Sunday.

The news has been leaking for quite a long time now over internet on the sites including, CBS, GreenTechMedia and Fortune. Nevertheless Sunday night will be the first time you will be hearing the actual details about the Bloom energy in a 60 Minutes segment that will be aired. The segment will either raise a lot of eyebrows, or will either knock your socks off or either both.

Bloom Energy already has listed approximately two dozen huge companies who have been surreptitiousness testers of the inexplicable device together with eBay, who says to have by now saved $100,000 and such returning sustainability favorites as Wal-Mart and Google.

Among the surprise that we will get on Sunday, a huge one will be that how it does exactly works. According to Hank Green, the device can easily be installed in homes, and will generate heat and electricity both, and it will result in huge efficiency gains. So check out the 60 min segment aired and know everything you need to know about Bloom Energy.

You can watch the 60 minute segment to get a clear idea of what exactly the Bloom Box really looks like. If you haven’t then here is a look inside the bloom box for you. It’s similar to an industrial-sized refrigerator, which sucks up its fuel biomass, natural gas etc on one end and oxygen on the other side. Taking a deep look at the “secret sauce” at the back of the Bloom Box, we found that the Bloom bakes sand and cuts it into small squares which further are turned into ceramic that are then coated with black and green “inks.” Using a unique procedure Bloom Box generates these ceramic discs and stacks them jointly mixed together with metal plates of “a contemptible metal alloy.” The bigger the stacks the more power will the Bloom Box generate.

If you aren’t familiar with fuel cells, then know that they are just as the chemical batteries that use the chemical solutions and their reaction to create electricity. There has been several manufacturers manufacturing, fuel cells in the auto industry and consumer electronics for decades, but due to their expensive manufacturing they have been unable to enter into the mainstream.
