Brenmiller Energy's Thermal Energy Storage FAQ

Brenmiller Energy uses its bGen thermal energy storage platform to provide zero-emission industrial heat, capturing 10% of global GHG emissions. Its new BNRG360 service model shifts from equipment sales to energy-as-a-service, reducing upfront costs for customers.
Brenmiller Energy's Thermal Energy Storage FAQ

Industrial heat generation produces about 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions, more than all cars, planes, and ships combined, yet receives relatively little focus. Brenmiller offers a greener alternative via thermal energy storage.

The bGen platform is a patented solid-state heat battery that uses crushed volcanic rock to store low-cost renewable electricity as high-temperature heat. It releases this heat on demand as zero-emission steam, hot water, or air.

BNRG360 is Brenmiller's energy-as-a-service model where they develop, own, and operate the clean energy systems. Customers can adopt thermal energy storage without significant upfront capital investment, paying through long-term service agreements.

Crushed volcanic rock is an abundant material, avoiding reliance on scarce and expensive critical battery metals. This allows customers to charge the system when electricity prices are lower and use stored energy during higher demand or cost periods.

Several trends converge: rising electricity consumption, industrial electrification, grid modernization, increasing renewable energy penetration, and growing attention to energy security. Additionally, AI and data center expansion drive demand for flexible energy systems.

Direct electrification faces grid capacity constraints, high electricity costs, and inability to consistently reach ultra-high temperatures. Thermal energy storage overcomes these limitations.

By owning and operating the assets, Brenmiller generates recurring revenues, deepens customer relationships, and captures greater long-term value throughout each project's life, shifting from an equipment supplier to an integrated energy infrastructure company.

Industrial customers that require reliable, high-temperature heat around the clock, such as those producing steel, cement, glass, and other industrial products.
