On May 31, 2011, FuelCell Energy, Inc. (“FuelCell”) issued a press release announcing a
two-year order for 70 megawatts (“MW”) of fuel cell kits from POSCO Power. The total value of the
order and other commitments for services is estimated to be at least $129 million with delivery of
fuel cell kits beginning in October 2011 and occurring monthly through October 2013. FuelCell also
announced that its second quarter 2011 earnings will be impacted by a non-recurring charge of
approximately $9 million as a result of a repair and upgrade program for a select group of 1.2 MW
fuel cell modules produced between 2007 and early 2009. The non-recurring charge will be accounted
for as an increase to cost of goods sold. A copy of FuelCell’s press release is attached to this
report as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
