Last Straw

A com­pany called Bloom Energy and foun­ded by K.R. Srid­har is set to launch a new energy device tomor­row that he says is a break­through in fuel cell tech­no­logy — namely mak­ing it afford­able (the Holy Grail of fuel cell research) and thus provid­ing a loc­al­ised and com­par­at­ively cleaner and cheaper form of elec­tri­city than that which we cur­rently get from the grid.

There was a seg­ment cov­er­ing the topic on CBS’s 60 minutes Sunday night, includ­ing an inter­view with K.R. Srid­har, which can watch online here.
