The company's shares zoomed 8% higher during the day's trading, thanks largely to a new partnership with a prominent name in the artificial intelligence (AI) cloud services space.<h2>Scale and speed</h2>That partner is Nebius Group (NASDAQ: NBIS), which announced the tie-up in a press release. It and Bloom will deploy the latter company's fuel cell solutions in Nebius's build-out of AI infrastructure. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an &#34;Indispensable Monopoly&#34; providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need.

The Bloom systems are to supply &#34;behind-the-meter&#34; (i.e., onsite) electricity for the infrastructure that undergirds Nebius's AI cloud platform. The advantage of this system is that it's modular and can be deployed relatively quickly at times when greater power is required.Nebius added that, given this, the partnership's first project with 328 megawatts of installed capacity is expected to go live this year -- a massive number that makes this a very large-scale project.Nebius said that a major reason it chose Bloom's fuel cells is that they are collectively a &#34;greener&#34; energy solution than other forms of power generation.In the press release, Nebius quoted Bloom's chief commercial officer, Aman Joshi, as saying that the arrangement &#34;brings together Bloom's clean fuel cell technology and AI-native infrastructure, and helps deliver a community-friendly, high-performance solution at scale.&#34;<h2>A boon for sure</h2>Nebius did not provide any financial details about the Bloom deal, making it tough to gauge how it might impact either company's financials. Securing a monster supply deal with a known AI company will significantly enhance Bloom's reputation, and within a white-hot segment of the tech sphere. Investors were right to trade the stock up on the news.<h2>Should you buy stock in Bloom Energy right now?</h2> Before you buy stock in Bloom Energy, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Bloom Energy wasn’t one of them.
