CBRE Global investors, on behalf of one of its investment funds, announced that Bloom Energy signed a deal to renew expand its current 102,795-square-foot lease at [email protected] in San Jose, Calif. by leasing an additional 47,123 square feet. Bloom Energy - which delivers highly reliable and resilient, always-on electric power that is clean, cost-effective, and ideal for microgrid applications - will add a floor and a half to its footprint and will now occupy floors one, two, four, five and six at the two-building office complex.

"After acquiring [email protected] last year, we were able to activate a best-in-class management and leasing team to enhance the tenant experience and drive leasing. We were also able to upgrade underutilized common areas and enhance the communal outdoor space," said Brian Ma, Senior Director of Commercial Operations for CBRE Global Investors. "These positive changes at the property contributed to Bloom Energy's decision to renew its lease and expand by an additional 47,000 square feet, making [email protected] its long-term headquarters."

[email protected] is LEED Gold Certified and spans 368,702 square feet across two buildings located at 4353 North First Street, where Bloom Energy is located, and 4453 North First Street. The high-end office buildings feature 14' to 16' slab-to-slab heights, expansive window lines affording panoramic views and abundant light, dramatic lobbies, and flexible 32,800-square-foot column-free floor plates that can efficiently accommodate a de-densified floor plan. Tenant amenities include a fitness center with a yoga studio and several large outdoor collaboration areas, a sought-after feature. The property is 50% leased, with spaces ranging from 32,000 square feet to 96,000 square feet remaining available.

CBRE Global Investors was represented by Jeff Houston and Vincent Scott of CBRE in the transaction.

"[email protected] continues to be an ideal headquarters for Bloom Energy, especially as the company continues to grow. The location affords their employees easy access to multiple highways, including Interstates 237, 880 and U.S. 101, abundant retail, and an impressive on-site amenity package," said Scott.

[email protected] is located along the heavily trafficked Interstate 237 corridor, providing prominent exposure and regional access via direct connectivity to major highways and to the freeway. The location affords many tenants a reverse commute to the East Bay and Peninsula areas and is home to several major national and global corporations.
