Brenmiller Energy Starts Commissioning of 32 MWh TES System with 6,200-Ton CO2 Cut
Brenmiller Energy has finished installing its 32 MWh bGen thermal energy storage system at Tempo Beverages and begun start-up, system charging, functional validation and steam output testing. Once validated, the system will fully replace 100 percent of on-site fossil boiler steam and cut about 6,200 tons of CO2 annually.
1. Project Completion and Commissioning Start
Brenmiller Energy has completed the mechanical and electrical installation of its 32 MWh bGen thermal energy storage system at Tempo Beverages, marking the Company’s first large-scale industrial TES deployment. The project has entered start-up, system charging, functional validation and steam output testing to verify readiness for full operation.
2. Full Boiler Replacement Scope
This deployment is engineered to fully replace 100 percent of the facility’s fossil fuel boiler-based steam production, enabling the phased decommissioning of existing boilers once operational validation is achieved. The system integrates directly with Tempo’s steam network for continuous industrial heat supply.
3. Emissions Reduction Impact
Upon successful commissioning, the bGen TES system is expected to eliminate approximately 6,200 tons of CO2 emissions annually, demonstrating a significant decarbonization outcome for industrial process heat. This environmental benefit underscores the value proposition of Brenmiller’s technology.
4. Strategic Role in 360BNRG
As the flagship project under the 360BNRG framework, Tempo provides a validated template for global replication and supports potential commercial structures including asset ownership or long-term operating agreements. This reference deployment aims to drive future recurring revenue streams and flexible financial models.
