Briefings

A live Frontier Forum with Bloom Energy explores how C&I customers are shifting toward on-site power due to grid constraints, while facing new community concerns like air quality and noise. The discussion covers the transition from traditional cost-per-MWh models to new decision-making factors including speed and reliability, with Stephen Lacey interviewing Aman Joshi, the chief commercial officer at Bloom Energy.

Key points

• C&I customers are investing in distributed, on-site power primarily because long interconnection queues and fragile supply chains have created grid capacity shortages.
• Community concerns regarding air quality, noise, and water use are driving the preference for cleaner solutions such as fuel cells over traditional grid power.

Context and limitations

This briefing covers the specific shift in energy decisions within the C&I sector as of September 2026, but does not include data on the total number of affected customers, specific regional air quality impacts, or the exact timeline for community acceptance of new power sources.
