Brenmiller Energy Ltd. (BNRG), a renowned global provider of thermal energy storage solutions, has unveiled its ambitious Technology Roadmap 2030. This plan highlights the company's commitment to dramatically boosting the performance of its thermal energy systems while significantly slashing costs for consumers.
Central to this roadmap is the bGen ONE™ thermal battery, which is set to launch in 2026. This next-generation system incorporates a proprietary heating concept that enhances performance by over 50%. Additionally, it boasts an advanced heat storage design, enabling higher operational temperatures and improved efficiency. This development builds on the success of Brenmiller's existing bGen ZERO™ platform, which has already made significant advances in the market.
The roadmap is structured to introduce new bGen™ systems every 12-18 months until 2030. It aims for a 50-60% reduction in system costs by increasing the thermal storage temperature from the current 600°C to an impressive 1500°C. These upgrades are fueled by next-gen heat storage media and enhanced manufacturing efficiencies.
Moreover, Brenmiller's bGen ZTO™ system is positioned as a breakthrough in the thermal oil market. This system, currently under development, addresses an $8 billion market opportunity with eight projects valued at $170 million already in progress. It achieves near-100% cycle efficiency and offers superior maintenance, stability, and heat performance.
With 103 MWh in cumulative projects deployed, Brenmiller Energy has cemented its position as a leader in the thermal energy storage sector. Its commercial opportunity pipeline surpasses half a billion dollars, underscoring Brenmiller's vital role in supporting the transition to zero carbon emissions.
