Brenmiller Energy to Launch Revolutionary bGen™ Thermal Energy Storage System to Electrify Thermal Oil: 8 Projects Worth Approximately $170 Million Already in Commercial Pipeline
05 February 2025 - 12:30AM
Business Wire
- Electric thermal oil solution leverages award-winning bGen™
efficiency and delivers low-carbon heat at price parity with fossil
fuels
- Next-generation thermal storage system for industrial
applications set to launch in 2026, addressing critical market need
to decarbonize thermal oil heating
- Multiple commercial projects already in negotiations,
demonstrating strong market validation, expanding Brenmiller’s
total addressable market by an additional $8 billion annually.
Brenmiller Energy Ltd. (“Brenmiller”, “Brenmiller Energy” or the
“Company”) (Nasdaq: BNRG), a leading global energy provider of
thermal energy storage (“TES”) solutions to industrial and utility
markets, today announced that it has commenced the development of a
ground-breaking TES system, the bGen ZERO Thermal Oil™ (“bGen ZTO”)
designed to electrify thermal oil for industrial applications.
Planned for commercial availability in 2026, bGen ZTO expands
Brenmiller’s total addressable market into the $8 billion annual
thermal oil heating equipment market growing at a compound annual
growth rate (“CAGR”) of 6%.
Thermal oil is used for industrial heating processes of
pharmaceuticals, chemicals, petrochemicals, and food processing
industries. Today, 95% of thermal oil is powered by fossil
fuels.
“Our extensive engagement with global industrial customers
revealed a critical need for next-generation thermal oil heating
solutions that eliminate fossil fuels while reducing complexity and
cost,” said Avi Brenmiller, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of
Brenmiller Energy. “The bGen ZTO’s efficiency means our
Heat-as-a-Service customers will benefit from zero-emissions heat
at a price that is competitive with fossil fuel-based solutions.
Our research and development engineers, the best in the industry in
our opinion, are now developing the bGen ZTO planning for first
delivery by 2026 for 8 projects worth approximately $170 million in
our commercial pipeline. To the best of our knowledge, no competing
thermal oil storage systems exist in the market today.”
A breakthrough innovation, bGen ZTO is a modular TES system that
will combine an internal electric conversion for storage with
integrated heat exchange, achieving nearly 100% cycle efficiency
through simplified maintenance and indirect oil heating with
minimal degradation, smooth stability, and limited breakdown, if
any, while heating thermal oil up to 340°C.
The launch of bGen ZTO comes as industries increasingly turn to
renewable energy solutions in the face of fossil fuel
volatility.
