Senator Coons applauds Bloom Energy’s move to Delaware. Chris is particularly excited about prospects for the future of Delaware in advanced manufacturing and for the deployment of clean energy-generating technology.
Chris made the following statement in response to the announcement:
“As someone who worked for eight years at one of Delaware’s most innovative materials-based science companies, I know well that it is an ideal place for advanced science and clean-energy technology companies to invest, to hire talented people and to grow their businesses. Bloom Energy is a terrific example of how we are turning ‘Made in America, Manufactured in Delaware’ into more than just words, but into reality.
“I offer my hearty congratulations to Governor Markell, Secretary O’Mara, DEDO Director Levin, and everyone on their team who pulled together, worked tirelessly and made this possible.
“As a member of the Senate Energy Committee, I am particularly excited about the prospects for the future for Delaware, for advanced manufacturing and for the deployment of clean-energy generating technology. I am going to work together, with the leadership of Bloom Energy in the future, to make sure that we have a sustainable advantage in Delaware as we roll out on the East Coast one of the most promising, new, clean-energy technologies in America.“
