Adobe Powers San Jose Headquarters with Bloom Energy Fuel Cells

SAN JOSE, Calif.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Adobe Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq:ADBE) and Bloom Energy Corporation ([ www.BloomEnergy.com ]) today announced completion of the largest commercial Bloom Energy fuel cell installation to date, designed to supply approximately one-third of the electricity required by Adobea�s downtown San Jose headquarters.

"Installing Bloom Energy fuel cells supports Adobea�s efforts to remain at the forefront of utilizing impactful, clean technologies to reduce our environmental footprint"

A total of 12 Bloom Energy Servers a" also known as Bloom boxes a" have been installed on the 5th floor of Adobea�s West Tower at the companya�s headquarters campus, which is composed of three high-rise towers and a parking structure. Each server is the size of an average parking space and contains thousands of Bloom fuel cells a" flat, solid ceramic squares made from a sand-like powder a" which will convert air and biogas into electricity via a clean electrochemical process, producing zero net carbon emissions. Typically, one server generates enough power to meet the needs of approximately 100 average U.S. homes or one small office building.

Adobe is a recognized leader for its green building efforts, having earned distinction as the worlda�s first commercial enterprise to achieve four platinum certifications under the U.S. Green Building Councila�s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design LEED� program. The Bloom fuel cell installation is Adobea�s second major renewable energy installation; in December 2009, Adobe installed 20 Windspire� wind turbines. Now, as a Bloom Energy customer, Adobe can efficiently generate its own electricity on site, further reducing the companya�s carbon footprint, lowering energy costs and mitigating power outage risks. Adobe expects to reduce its carbon footprint by approximately 121.5 million pounds over 10 years, which is the equivalent to taking 1,810 compact cars off the road annually.

aInstalling Bloom Energy fuel cells supports Adobea�s efforts to remain at the forefront of utilizing impactful, clean technologies to reduce our environmental footprint,a said Randall H. Knox, III, senior director, Global Workplace Solutions, Adobe. aWe hope to be an example to other companies considering cleaner, more affordable energy sources for their operations.a

aAdobe has long been a leader in setting the bar for environmental sustainability in Silicon Valley,a said Stu Aaron, vice president of marketing and product management, Bloom Energy. aWith its significant installation of Bloom Energy Servers, the company can now enjoy a smarter, localized energy source that will both reduce its carbon impact and its electricity costs. Wea�re fortunate to work with companies that embrace responsible power consumption and make energy innovation a critical part of their business strategy.a
