Bloom Energy and Brookfield Announce USD 5 Billion Partnership to Power AI Data Centers

San Jose, California, October 13, 2025- Bloom Energy and Brookfield Asset Management have announced a USD 5 billion strategic partnership to deploy advanced fuel cell technology across AI data centers globally, in a move that could redefine how high-performance computing is powered sustainably.

The collaboration will integrate Bloom Energy’s Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) into Brookfield-backed AI infrastructure, offering scalable, low-emission power to meet the skyrocketing energy demands of artificial intelligence workloads. This represents a growing trend of pairing clean, reliable energy solutions with next-generation data center operations.

“This partnership represents a pivotal moment in aligning cutting-edge AI infrastructure with clean, reliable energy,” said a Brookfield spokesperson. “By leveraging Bloom Energy’s fuel cell technology, we can build data centers that are not only powerful but also environmentally responsible.”

Bloom Energy’s SOFC technology generates electricity through electrochemical reactions using natural gas or hydrogen, achieving roughly 95% efficiency while minimizing emissions and water consumption. Its scalable design makes it particularly well-suited for AI data centers, which require uninterrupted, high-density power.

The partnership is already in motion, with a European deployment site expected to be announced before the end of 2025. This initiative builds upon Bloom Energy’s July collaboration with Oracle, where its fuel cells will power Oracle’s AI data centers, with the first product deliveries scheduled within 90 days.

The market responded positively, with Bloom Energy shares surging over 30% in pre-market trading, reflecting strong investor confidence in the company’s role in powering AI infrastructure.

Industry analysts note that the partnership positions Bloom Energy at the forefront of clean energy solutions for AI, providing data centers with a sustainable alternative to traditional grid power while supporting high-performance computing objectives.

This landmark collaboration signifies a major step toward energy-efficient AI infrastructure, combining the expertise of a renewable energy leader with one of the world’s largest investment management firms.
