Questions and Answers About These Proxy Materials, the Annual Meeting, and Voting

Why am I being provided these proxy materials?

We are providing you these proxy materials in connection with the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on Tuesday, May 7, 2024 at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time, online via live audio webcast at our virtual meeting site, www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/BE2024.

What is the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”)?

We use the “Notice and Access” method of providing proxy materials to stockholders via the internet. We believe this process provides stockholders with a convenient and quick way to access the proxy materials and vote, while allowing us to conserve natural resources and reduce the costs of printing and distributing the proxy materials.

On or about March 26, 2024, we will mail to most of our stockholders a Notice containing instructions on how to access our proxy materials, including our Proxy Statement and Annual Report. The Notice also provides instructions on how to vote using the internet or by telephone and includes instructions on how to request a paper copy of the proxy materials by mail.

Who can vote at the meeting?

Only stockholders holding Class A common stock at the close of business on the Record Date, which is March 12, 2024, or their proxy holders, will be entitled to vote at the meeting.

How many shares were outstanding as of the Record Date?

At the close of business on the Record Date, there were 225,783,103 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. All shares of Class B common stock were converted into shares of Class A common stock in July 2023, and all of the previously outstanding shares of our Class B common stock were retired in November 2023. No additional shares of Class B common stock have been or will be issued following the conversion.

Where is the meeting?

This year’s annual meeting will be accessible through the internet. We have adopted a virtual format for the meeting to make participation accessible for stockholders from any geographic location with internet connectivity. We have worked to offer the same participation opportunities as

were provided at the in-person portion of our past meetings while further enhancing the online experience available to all stockholders regardless of their location. These proxy materials include instructions on how to participate in the meeting and how you may vote your shares.

How can I participate in the meeting?

To participate in, submit questions, and vote at the meeting, stockholders or their proxy holders may log in with the control number found in the box marked by the arrow for postal mail recipients of the Notice or proxy card, or within the body of the email for electronic delivery recipients, at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/BE2024.

Whether or not you participate in the 2024 Annual Meeting, it is important that your shares be part of the voting process. Prior to the meeting, you may vote your proxy via the internet, telephone, or if you received a printed copy of your proxy materials, by mail.

How do I ask questions at the meeting?

This year’s question and answer session will include questions submitted in advance of, and questions submitted live during, the meeting. You may submit a question in advance of the meeting atwww.proxyvote.com after logging in with your control number. Questions may be submitted during the meeting throughwww.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/BE2024. We plan to answer questions pertinent to company matters as time allows during the meeting. Questions that are substantially similar may be grouped and answered once to avoid repetition. Stockholder questions related to personal or customer-related matters, that are not pertinent to annual meeting matters, or that contain derogatory references to individuals, use offensive language, or are otherwise out of order or not suitable for the conduct of the annual meeting will not be addressed during the meeting.

More information regarding the agenda and rules of conduct for the meeting will be provided in advance and during the meeting atwww.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/BE2024. The rules of conduct will contain more information regarding the question and answer process, including the number and types of questions permitted, the time allotted for questions, and how questions will be recognized, answered, and disclosed.

Should I join the meeting early?

What do I do if I have trouble accessing the meeting?

Technicians will be ready to assist at the number listed on the meeting website if any technical difficulties arise. We will make a replay of the meeting available on our Investor Relations website until the next annual meeting.

How many votes do I have?

You have one vote for each share of Class A common stock you owned as of the close of business on the Record Date.

What am I voting on?

You are being asked to vote on the following:

How does the Board of Directors recommend I vote on these proposals?

The Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the election of each Class III director nominee, and “FOR” each of the other proposals listed in this Proxy Statement.

How do I vote my shares?

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If on the Record Date your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, then you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. As a stockholder of record, you may vote during the meeting, or vote by proxy over the telephone, through the internet, or by using a proxy card that you may request or that we may elect to deliver to you at a later time. The method you use to vote will not limit your right to vote at the meeting if you decide to vote at the meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the meeting online, we urge you to submit your proxy in advance. You may still attend the meeting online and vote during the meeting even if you have already voted by proxy.

Before the meeting:

To vote through the internet: Go towww.proxyvote.com to complete an electronic proxy card. You will be asked to provide the control number from your Notice. Your internet vote must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 6, 2024, to be counted.

To vote by telephone: Dial toll-free 1-800-690-6903 using a touch-tone phone and follow the recorded instructions. You will be asked to provide the control number from the proxy card. Your telephone vote must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 6, 2024, to be counted.

To vote by mail: If you received your proxy materials via the U.S. mail, you may complete, sign, and return the accompanying proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided. If you return your signed proxy card to us and we receive it before the meeting, we will vote your shares as you direct.

During the meeting:

To be admitted to and vote at the virtual meeting, you must enter the control number found in the box marked by the arrow for postal mail recipients of the Notice or proxy card, or within the body of the email for electronic delivery recipients.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank

If on the Record Date your shares were held in an account with a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee, then you are the beneficial owner of the shares held in street name. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your nominee how to vote the shares held in your account. However, the organization that holds your shares is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the meeting. Because you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the meeting unless (i) your voting instruction form or Notice indicates that you may vote those shares through thewww.proxyvote.com website (in which case, you may access, participate in, and vote at the meeting with the access code indicated on that voting instruction form or Notice) or (ii) you request (preferably at least five (5) days before the meeting) and obtain a “legal proxy” from the organization that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares at the meeting.

You should have received a voting instruction form and voting instructions with these proxy materials from your brokerage firm, bank, or other agent rather than from us. Simply complete and mail the voting instruction form to ensure that your vote is counted. Internet or telephonic voting may also be available; however, that will depend on the voting process of your broker, bank, or other nominee. Please see your voting instruction form for further details.

How will my shares be voted if I return a blank proxy card?

If you are a stockholder of record and return a signed and dated proxy card, or otherwise submit a proxy without indicating voting selections, your shares will be voted, as applicable, “FOR” the election of each director nominee, and “FOR” each of the other proposals listed in this Proxy Statement. If any other matter is properly presented at the meeting, your proxyholder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares using his or her discretion.

How will my shares be voted if I do not provide my broker or bank with voting instructions, and what is a “broker non-vote”?

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and you do not instruct your broker, bank, or other nominee how to vote your shares, your broker, bank, or other nominee may still be able to vote your shares in its discretion on certain matters. Brokers, banks, and other securities intermediaries may use their discretion to vote your “uninstructed” shares with respect to matters considered to be “routine,” but not with respect to

“non-routine” matters. Whether a proposal is considered routine or non-routine is subject to stock exchange rules and final determination by the stock exchange. Even when there is voting discretion for uninstructed shares, some brokers are choosing not to exercise such discretion. As a result, it is important to vote your shares as early as possible to ensure that your vote is counted and no later than the deadline provided in the materials you received.

How many votes are needed to approve the proposal?

Proposal 1: The election of directors requires a plurality of the votes cast at the meeting. “Plurality” means that the nominees who receive the highest number of votes cast “for” such nominee are elected as directors. As a result, the three nominees receiving the most “FOR” votes will be elected. “Withhold” votes and broker non-votes, if any, will not affect the outcome of the vote.

Proposals 2 and 3: The approval of these proposals requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast for or against the proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, are not deemed to be votes cast and, therefore, will not affect the outcome of the vote.

Proposal 4: The approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the voting power of all of the outstanding shares of Class A common stock. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal.

Who is making this solicitation?

The Board is soliciting these proxies and the cost of such solicitation will be borne by Bloom. We hired Alliance Advisors, LLC to assist in the distribution of proxy materials and solicitation of votes for approximately $21,800, plus reimbursement of any out-of-pocket expenses. In addition to the use of the mail, proxies may be solicited by our officers, directors, and employees (who receive no additional compensation for doing so) in person, by telephone, or by email.

What is the quorum requirement?

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. The Bylaws provide that a majority of the voting power of all shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting will constitute a quorum. Your shares will be counted toward the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy or vote at the meeting, or if you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, if you submit your voting instructions, or if your bank, broker, or other nominee exercises its voting discretion over such shares. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as shares present for the purposes of determining the presence of a quorum.

How can the meeting be adjourned?

In the event there are not sufficient votes to approve a proposal at the time of the meeting, the meeting may be adjourned in order to permit further solicitation of proxies. Under the Bylaws, the meeting chair shall have the power to adjourn the meeting to another time, date, and place (if any), whether or not a quorum is present. If it is necessary to adjourn the meeting, and the adjournment is for a period of no more than 30 days and no new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, no notice of the time, date, and place (if any) of the adjourned meeting is required to be given to the stockholders other than an announcement of the time, date, and place (if any) at the meeting or an announcement displayed, during the time scheduled for the meeting, on the meeting website or an announcement set forth in the notice of the meeting. If a quorum is not present at the meeting, a majority of the shares represented and entitled to vote at the meeting may adjourn the meeting.

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card?

If you receive more than one proxy card, your shares are registered in more than one name or are registered in different accounts. Please complete, sign, and return each proxy card to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

Yes. You can revoke your proxy at any time before the closing of the polls at the meeting in any of the following ways:

•You may submit another properly completed proxy card with a later date but before the submission deadline for the meeting.

•You may grant a subsequent proxy by telephone or through the internet.

•You may send a written notice that you are revoking your proxy to the Corporate Secretary of Bloom at 4353 North First Street, San Jose, California 95134. The notice will be considered timely if it is received at the indicated address by the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the meeting date.

•You may attend the virtual meeting and vote electronically. However, simply attending the meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

Your most recently submitted proxy card or telephone or internet proxy is the one that is counted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker or Bank

If your shares are held by your broker, bank, or other nominee, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your bank, broker, or other nominee.

How can I find out the results of the voting at the meeting?

We intend to announce preliminary voting results at the meeting and publish final results in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the SEC within four business days of the meeting.

What is “householding” and how does it affect me?

We have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called “householding.” Under this procedure, we send only one proxy statement and one annual report or one notice of internet availability of proxy materials to eligible stockholders who share a single address, unless we have received instructions to the contrary from any stockholder at that address. This practice is designed to reduce our printing and postage costs and benefit the environment. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to receive separate proxy cards. We do not use householding for any other stockholder mailings.

If you share an address with another stockholder and receive only one set of proxy materials but would like to request a separate copy of these materials now or in the future, please contact our mailing agent, Broadridge, by calling 1-866-540-7095 or by writing to Broadridge, Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York, 11717, and we will deliver these materials promptly. Broadridge is acting as our mailing agent and vote tabulator and is not soliciting proxies on our behalf. Similarly, you may also contact Broadridge using these methods if you receive multiple copies of the proxy materials and would prefer to receive a single copy in the future. If you own shares through a bank, broker, or other nominee, you should contact the nominee concerning householding procedures.

Are votes confidential? Who counts the votes?

Proxy instructions, ballots, and voting tabulations that identify individual stockholders are handled in a manner that protects your voting privacy. We will not disclose the proxy instructions or ballots of individual stockholders, except:

•as necessary to meet applicable legal requirements and to assert or defend claims for or against Bloom;

•to facilitate a successful proxy solicitation;

•if a stockholder makes a written comment on the proxy card or otherwise communicates his or her vote to management; or

•to allow the independent inspector of election to certify the results of the vote.

A representative from Broadridge will serve as the inspector of election.

How can I obtain copies of the proxy materials?

The Proxy Statement and Annual Report on Form 10-K are available atwww.proxyvote.com. We will provide to any stockholder without charge, upon written or oral request, a copy of our Proxy Statement and Annual Report on Form 10-K (without exhibits). Requests should be directed to Bloom Energy Corporation, 4353 North First Street, San Jose, California 95134, Attention: Corporate Secretary, or by calling (408) 543-1500.
