By GlobalDataThe digesters have been designed to breakdown and clean biowaste to produce biomethane and will fuel the company servers.
These servers have been developed to make use of natural gas, biogas, or hydrogen as fuel, and produce power without combustion through an electrochemical process.
Bloom Energy founder, chairman and CEO KR Sridhar said: “India’s growing economy is in need of reliable renewable power now more than ever.
“This collaboration not only produces renewable energy from bio-waste but ensures it’s being used efficiently where needed.”
The company claims that the new project will have a significant impact on the environment as it has the potential to remove methane emissions, which are said to be 25 times more potent in the atmosphere than carbon emissions.
