Data Centers Fuel cell
11/18/2025

Bloom Energy’s rapid growth is fueled by the global demand for reliable electricity at data centers—where traditional grids often fall short. Their solid oxide fuel cell systems deliver dependable power, and Barksdale has proudly partnered with Bloom since their founding in 2006.

Bloom Energy today provides clean, reliable, and sustainable power solutions. Their solid oxide fuel cell technology generates electricity on-site, reducing dependence on traditional power grids and lowering carbon emissions. Bloom serves critical sectors like data centers, healthcare, manufacturing and more, helping businesses meet growing energy demands while advancing environmental goals.
 

Barksdale’s Unique Contribution


Barksdale specified its GMSPS pressure switch for Bloom’s natural gas fuel cell systems, securing special agency approvals for propane and gas applications. These switches serve as a core element of Bloom’s “Fuel Trap” system enabling:

  • Precise detection of abnormal pressure conditions
  • Rapid systems protection response ensuring uptime for data centers
  • Enhanced system integrity and performance through a dual-switch design
