The Bloom Energy Server deployment at eBay in San Jose, Calif., complements a solar technology investment.

Bloom Energy reports that its 500-kilowatt installation at eBay complements the e-commerce giant's 650-kilowatt solar array. The servers delivered 2.2 million kilowatt-hours of electricity in the first six months, offsetting more than 650,000 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions. The installation  was the first Bloom Energy server deployment powered entirely by renewable biogas.
