Bloom Box clean energy cheap?
Being in the Green Home Inspection business. I'm very excited to share with people about the following info. Last night on 60 Minuets. A company released the newest Green Home Energy product a wireless fuel cell for Residential and Commercial electric consumption.
The Bloom Box! THIS IS AMAZING! Here it is. Bloom Energy has partnered with several other major Silicon Valley companies to develop a near carbon free electric producing power plant that looks like a small black box. It is roughly the same size as a Rubik's cube. Two units that would go in your back yard would be enough to power the average American home. The inventor wants to keep the product very inexpensive under $3,000. Making it less expensive than solar panels or wind turbines so that this litttle product will catch on some what quick. Similar to the way we have evolved to cell phones instead of land lines. This technology is already being used by Google and Ebay. It was developed by a NASA employee who was working on a way for sustainable life on Mars. His project was scraped but his dream was not. The inventors son submitted an anonymous bid to name the product "Bloom" He explained to his father. Who humbly tried talking his investors out of the name. "Life will bloom, children will bloom, the environment will bloom, jobs will bloom and isn't that what your working so hard for Dad?"
This one product is not the answer. But hopefully it's a real good start. I try not to preach Green constantly, but it's what's going to save America. This man is another "Henry Ford" type figure, of our time that has a product at a reasonable price that the world needs. He wants something that Americans can manufacture, can use and a clean product that the rest of the world should have. Not the other way around. At least that is my two cents worth as a Green Professional Home Inspector.
