REBI has successfully secured a grant under the NextGenerationEU program, implemented by Instituto para la Diversificación y Ahorro de la Energía, to support innovative solutions for thermal energy storage and electric heat.
bGen ZERO will store and deliver renewable energy for industrial steam to REBI’s customer through Brenmiller Europe S.L., a new joint venture company in Europe recently established as a partnership between Brenmiller Energy, Viridi and Green Enesys.
For this specific industrial application, Brenmiller’s bGen ZERO will be configured with 1.4 MWh of charging capacity, 10 MWh of storage, and 33 hours of continuous discharge.
“We’re pleased to partner with REBI and help advance Spain’s clean energy goals using thermal energy storage,” said Dr. Jose Luis Moran, managing director of Brenmiller Europe S.L.
“By utilizing renewable electricity to charge the storage system, Brenmiller’s bGen ZERO technology will contribute to increased energy efficiency and reduced carbon emissions.”
“This is the first of many projects we expect to execute in the near term through our newly formed joint venture, Brenmiller Europe,” said Avi Brenmiller, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Brenmiller Energy.
“As anticipated, we are seeing a large and growing number of opportunities throughout Europe for our bGen TES technology to further improve returns on industrial decarbonization projects backed by renewable energy grants.”
