• Brenmiller achieves contractual milestone, triggering second project payment from Tempo
  • Project completion on track for end of 2025
  • 32 MWh bGen™ thermal energy storage system is expected to mitigate 6,200 tons of carbon emissions annually and save Tempo $7.5M in energy costs over 15 years

Brenmiller Energy Ltd. ("Brenmiller", "Brenmiller Energy” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: BNRG), a leading global provider of thermal energy storage (“TES”) solutions for industrial and utility markets, announced today that its contractor has started assembling its 32 MWh bGen™ ZERO TES system for Tempo Beverages (“Tempo”) on-site at the client’s factory in Netanya, Israel. Tempo, partially owned by Heineken International B.V., is one of Israel’s largest producers and distributors of beverages for brands including Heineken and Pepsi.

“We are proud to report that on-site assembly of our bGen for Tempo is running according to schedule and project commissioning is on track for end of 2025,” said Avi Brenmiller, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Brenmiller Energy. “It’s exciting to see our flagship project come to life, as well as its momentum reflected in our pipeline with each additional milestone we achieve. We’re confident that this project will create even greater demand for TES solutions globally, as we demonstrate that cleaner solutions are better economic solutions.”

The contractor is responsible for ensuring that the construction and installation of Tempo’s bGen™ system complies with all safety standards and follows the strictest supervision, reporting and coordination standards with Brenmiller and the customer, while remaining on schedule to completion.

As a global leader in deployed TES systems with 103 MWh in operation and construction, Brenmiller’s bGen™ will replace Tempo’s heavy fuel oil boilers to serve as the beverage processor’s primary heat source. The switch from fossil fuels to electricity is estimated to mitigate over 6,200 tons of carbon emissions annually and save Tempo an estimated $7.5 million over 15 years.
