The future of energy may be upon us. It comes with the cute name "Bloom Box." The so-far secretive Bloom Energy company wants to put one in every home, or so we hear on 60 Minutes.
The device is a fuel cell for the home. Bloom says their technology generates enough electricity for your house when you feed it air and natural gas. It's a cleaner, distributed, affordable power solution. Does it sound too good to be true? Some people with deep pockets are betting on the box.
Watch the 60 Minutes video below and decide for yourself if this looks like the start of something big, or just another promise that can't be fulfilled.
