The company believes it to be the first factory in the world of its kind. Thermal energy storage, true to its name, stores energy as heat — a crucial function as society transitions to renewable sources like solar and wind, sources that are now economically viable to gather but, alas, are as variable as the weather and seasons.
Brenmiller’s thermal energy storage system, called bGEN, can be charged in various ways, the company explained in a video— solar, wind, the grid when there’s excess supply, industrial exhaust gas, and sundry other sources of heat or electricity.

Brenmiller, with its bGen product, has already commissioned four projects at its clients'' sites in the USA, Israel, Brazil and Italy since 2022. Rondo Energy put its first commercial project in the USA into operation in March 2023. Both companies primarily offer power-to-heat solutions for industrial clients. They were both founded ...
