Bloom Energy Celebrates Opening its Delaware Manufacturing Center

On October 16, 2013, Bloom Energy celebrated the opening of its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Newark, Delaware. Watch the video to meet the Bloom Energy Delaware team members!
Barry is the plant manager for the Delaware facility. He was given 3 directives: create a manufacturing facility of the 21st century and a workforce of the 21st century. So Barry and his team worked tirelessly to meet those directives. Through hard work, he and his team were able to move into the facility and start training a new workforce in the first of May. He is very happy with the progress they’ve made so far and is optimistic for the future.
Frank is the Assembly Manufacturing Supervisor. He spent almost 3 years working at the same site when it was Chrysler. After Chrysler announced its closure, many moved on and Frank had to relocate out of Delaware. Frank stayed strong and found a new opportunity to return to Delaware with Bloom Energy’s new manufacturing facility, built on the same site as Chrysler’s old facility. He believes this is a rebirth of manufacturing for the state of Delaware, and wants to be part of that history.
Christina has been in Delaware for 14 years and used to be a supplier for Chrysler as well. She is also excited to see a new manufacturing facility with such a promising future. Christina has seen what manufacturing looked like for a long time in this country, and now she gets to see what manufacturing is going to look like in the future.
Ashay received his PhD in chemical engineering from the University of Delaware. He found this opportunity during his graduate studies. He is now helping Bloom Energy design next-generation energy solutions.
