Not true. Bloom has some of it’s boxes running at several locations and they have been operating for a couple of years.

"If stationary fuel cell's haven't taken off it's because they produce power at higher cost than the grid, and there's no evidence that the Bloom Box will fix that. Cost estimates given by Bloom of 8-9 cts/kwh include healthy subsidies that cut the price in half."

I don't want gov't picking winners and losers when they can't even control gov't spending.

They haven’t taken off because the technology to make them viable is just now arriving. The concept has been around for a very long time but the materials needed to make them hasn’t. Until now.
