Bloom Energy signed an agreement with NTT DATA to provide 900 megawatts of on-site power generation. NTT will use Bloom’s fuel cell technology, which converts natural gas or hydrogen into electricity without burning it, to power its growing network of data centers and AI infrastructure.
This is a significant win that reinforces Bloom’s role as a critical partner for the AI build-out. Large data center operators are increasingly turning to on-site power because the traditional electrical grid often cannot provide enough electricity quickly enough to meet their needs. This deal adds a massive new project to Bloom's pipeline and shows that its technology is becoming a standard choice for companies that cannot wait years for grid upgrades.

The recent midterm election results delivered a sweep for the Democratic party, which generally supports the tax credits and subsidies that make alternative energy more affordable. These incentives are a major factor for companies like Bloom that build fuel cells, which are devices that turn fuel into electricity through a chemical reaction rather than burning it.
While the broader market rose on the news, the outcome is particularly relevant for Bloom because its growth depends on long-term government policy staying favorable toward low-carbon power. A shift in leadership could have put those subsidies at risk, so this result provides a clearer path for the company to continue its expansion into powering large data centers.

Barclays upgraded the stock today, arguing that the company has established itself as a critical supplier for the AI industry. Bloom makes fuel cells that generate electricity on-site, which allows data center operators to get power immediately rather than waiting years for local utilities to upgrade the electrical grid.
The upgrade reflects a shift in how the company is viewed. While it was once seen as a niche green energy player, it is now being treated as a core infrastructure partner for the massive build-out of AI data centers. The stock rose about 9 percent following the news.

Bloom Energy signed a memorandum of understanding with California Resources Corporation to evaluate building at least 1 gigawatt of power generation. The projects would use Bloom’s fuel cells to create electricity while using carbon capture technology to trap and store the resulting emissions underground.
This is a preliminary agreement rather than a firm contract, but the scale is meaningful. For context, 1 gigawatt is roughly enough to power 750,000 homes. It shows that Bloom is finding demand for its technology in large-scale industrial projects beyond its core focus on data centers.

Morgan Stanley raised its price target from $310 to $335 on Friday. This move comes right after the company reported record revenue, though the stock has dropped sharply since that announcement. The firm kept its overweight rating, which is a way of saying they expect the stock to perform better than the broader market. While the stock is currently trading around $194, most analysts remain optimistic about the company's role in powering AI data centers. The average target across all firms now sits at $292. This suggests that while the market is reacting to short-term concerns like cash flow, professional analysts still see significant value in the company's growing backlog of power projects.
