Abstract


We have so many problems for producing electricity for present and future generation. So, we need to produce electric energy in the form of reliable, flexible, less polluting and continuous way supply of electric energy from a cheap material. This paper shows how to produce this kind of electric energy that energy which is called as ‘Bloom energy’. The Bloom Energy is produced inside the bloom box. Solid oxide fuel cell is defined as the ‘distributed generation solution that is clean and reliable, and affordable at the same time’. Reportedly, the solid oxide fuel cells are as much efficient as a conventional power plant. A solid oxide fuel cell is an electrochemical cell that converts a source fuel into an electrical current. The bloom box generates electricity inside a cell through reaction between a fuel and an oxidant with the presence of an electrolyte. A single fuel cell can power a light bulb, but a solid oxide fuel cell can produce 2kW electricity.

Keywords: Bloom energy, bloom box, electrolyte, electricity
