Rosh Ha’ayin, Israel, July 18, 2024 – 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, today announced that it will expand its proprietary
technology’s capabilities and develop a Cold Thermal Energy Storage (“CTES”) solution for data center applications,
called the bGen™ Cool. The Company will continue bGen™ production for power-to-heat applications in service of its
current commercial opportunities, valued at up to $500 million in potential sales.
The rapid integration of artificial intelligence (“AI”)
computing into enterprise systems is driving unprecedented demand for power. For scale, it requires almost 10x more electricity to process
a ChatGPT query than it does to run a typical Google search according to a study published by the International Energy Agency in January
2024. A note published by Goldman Sachs research in May 2024 estimates that data center power demand will increase by more than 160% by
2030, growing from 1-2% to 3-4% of all power consumption worldwide and creating considerable upstream opportunity for innovation and investment
in cooling and energy efficiency technologies. Leveraging the bGen™’s core competencies, Brenmiller expects minimal investment
is needed to adapt its existing proprietary TES technology to meet data center demand.
“Data center needs are not too dissimilar from those of our flagship
customer base, except they require cold water or air instead of heat or steam,” said Avi Brenmiller, chairman and Chief Executive
Officer of Brenmiller Energy. “With fairly straightforward modifications to our bGen™ design, we are confident in our ability
to deliver a cost-competitive and energy-efficient data center cooling solution to the market.”
Similar to the value proposition for industrial power consumers, CTES
systems can drive significant decarbonization and financial value for data center owners like Apple, Google and Meta. The bGen™’s
modular design aligns with the data center industry’s trend toward prefabrication and modular (PFM) solutions, and its industry-leading
fast-charging capabilities are well-suited to lower data center energy costs while delivering around-the-clock cooling and 24/7 operational
reliability. With the ability to charge and discharge simultaneously or independently and on-demand, the bGen™ can also help alleviate
data center strain on the grid and transform them into flexible balancing assets.
About bGen™
Brenmiller’s TES system, bGen™, converts electricity into
heat to power sustainable industrial processes at a price that is competitive with natural gas. The bGen charges by capturing low-cost
electricity from renewables or the grid and stores it in crushed rocks. It then discharges steam, hot water, or hot air on demand according
to customer requirements. The bGen also supports the development of utility-scale renewables by providing critical flexibility and grid-balancing
capabilities. In 2023, bGen™ was named among TIME’s Best Inventions in the Green Energy category.
About Brenmiller Energy Ltd.
Brenmiller Energy helps energy-intensive industries and power producers
end their reliance on fossil fuel boilers. Brenmiller’s patented bGen™ thermal battery is a modular and scalable energy storage
system that turns renewable electricity into zero-emission heat. It charges using low-cost renewable electricity and discharges a continuous
supply of heat on demand and according to its customers’ needs. The most experienced thermal battery developer on the market, Brenmiller
operates the world’s only gigafactory for thermal battery production and is trusted by leading multinational energy companies. For
