Brenmiller Successfully Hands Over its First bGen™ Thermal Energy Storage System in the U.S. to State University of New York (SUNY)
ROSH HA’AYIN, Israel–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Brenmiller Energy Ltd. (“Brenmiller”, “Brenmiller Energy” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: BNRG), a global leader in thermal energy storage (“TES”), today announced that it has completed all required system tests and operator training and has handed over its first bGen™ installation in the United States to a State University of New York (SUNY) campus.
The bGen™ storage system installation at a SUNY college charges by using both exhaust gas and electricity and discharges heat on demand. Brenmiller’s bGen™ is expected to eliminate approximately 550 metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions for SUNY annually. Developed and deployed in partnership with the New York Power Authority, the largest state power organization in the U.S., the project was financed in part by a grant from the Israel-U.S. Binational Industrial Research and Development (BIRD) Foundation.
