The Delaware Coastal Zone Board has voted 5 to 1 with two abstentions, allowing Bloom Energy’s permit to build 235 Bloom Boxes in northern New Castle County.
The fuel cells are fueled by natural gas and provide electricity that helps meeting alternative fuel requirements.

The institute also claims the state’s alternative energy standards that provides subsidies for Bloom drives out and limits growth at Delaware businesses.
