NTT DATA announces 900 MW agreement with Bloom Energy
On November 5, 2026, NTT DATA announced an agreement with Bloom Energy to deploy 900 megawatts of onsite power across multiple data center projects globally. Under the agreement, NTT Global Data Centers will use Bloom Energy’s fuel-cell technology to support growing data center capacity and evolving AI infrastructure needs. Initial shipments are scheduled to start in 2027.
NTT DATA’s announcement describes the agreement as Bloom Energy’s largest international project to date. It says the arrangement will provide greater flexibility in bringing new capacity online as demand for digital infrastructure grows. The relationship is designed to expand across NTT DATA’s global data center portfolio and reach gigawatt scale.
Fuel cells are intended to bring power online alongside construction
The announcement connects the agreement to rising demand for AI infrastructure and the challenge of securing clean, reliable power. It describes Bloom’s fuel cells as generating electricity without combustion, with low local air emissions, minimal water use and quiet operation. The modular systems can be deployed rapidly and expanded in phases, allowing power capacity to come online alongside data center construction and grow with increasingly power-dense AI workloads.
Doug Adams, CEO of NTT Global Data Centers, said clients are building AI capabilities at a pace the grid alone cannot always match, and that speed to power has become one of the defining factors in delivering capacity. He said the onsite power would provide a reliable, scalable way to bring capacity online alongside construction while honoring the company’s commitment to the communities where it operates.
“Bloom’s onsite power gives us a reliable, scalable way to bring capacity online alongside construction, while honoring our commitment to the communities where we build and operate. Its fuel cells protect local air quality, use minimal water and run quietly, which matters to us just as much as the megawatts. This agreement gives us a foundation to power our clients’ growth across our global portfolio.”

Bloom says the arrangement could support AI deployments
Aman Joshi, Bloom Energy’s executive vice president and chief commercial officer, said companies that secure power quickly will have a differentiated advantage and an accelerated path to revenue. He described the agreement as a foundation for work in key strategic markets and a model that can extend across NTT Global Data Centers’ international portfolio.
“As AI compute makes its way from AI factories to deployment at scale for edge and inference use cases, we at Bloom are uniquely positioned to help our customers meet the moment by enabling time to power with highly reliable, cleaner power that meets AI workload requirements for the digital era. Together with NTT Global Data Centers, we are establishing a strong foundation in key strategic markets and creating a model that can extend across their international portfolio.”

Bloom’s release describes risks to forward-looking statements
Bloom Energy’s forward-looking-statement notice identifies the amount of onsite power deployed, any future expansion of the relationship, the start of initial shipments and support for data center projects in any region as forward-looking matters. It cautions that predictions may differ materially from actual events or results because of various factors, including risks and uncertainties detailed in Bloom’s SEC filings. Bloom says it assumes no obligation to update those statements and does not intend to do so.
