"Bloom Box" deployed

Huh, thought I'd linked to some earlier article about Bloom Energy, but I don't find it. If I had linked to some earlier article, it would have been skeptical. There have been promises of efficient fuel cells made forever, and... well...

Apparently, I would have been wrong. Meuon informs me that Chattanooga's Electric Power Board has purchased one for its headquarters. If this is a reasonable thing in the land of TVA priced power, then maybe the price of natural gas will shortly soar to unbelievable heights these things work, and we'll need to figure out how to do methane recovery from landfills in order to feed 'em.
