Summary
Brenmiller Energy Ltd., a leading global provider of Thermal Energy Storage ("TES") solutions for industrial and utility customers, announced today it is developing a new version of its bGen™ TES platform technology specifically for nuclear small modular reactors ("SMRs").
SMRs produce up to 300 MW(e) of power, significantly smaller than traditional nuclear power plants, and are designed with modular components, offering greater flexibility and potentially lower costs. While reliable for baseload generation, SMRs lack the flexibility to meet dynamic grid demands - precisely the gap that bGen™ is designed to fill.
"The global shift toward electrification and clean heat requires not only innovation but also adaptability," said Avi Brenmiller, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Brenmiller Energy (BNRG). "We believe that our bGen™ system, already validated in real-world grid and industrial settings, is naturally suited to support SMR decarbonization with minimal modifications."
