Brenmiller Energy delivers scalable thermal energy storage solutions and services that allow customers to cost-effectively decarbonize their operations. Its patented bGen thermal storage technology enables the use of renewable energy resources, as well as waste heat, to intelligently heat crushed rocks to very high temperatures. They can then store this heat for minutes, hours, or even days before using it for industrial and power generation processes. With bGen organizations have a way to use electricity, biomass, and waste heat to generate the clean steam, hot water and hot air they need to process food and beverages, produce paper, manufacture chemicals and pharmaceuticals or drive steam turbines without burning fossil fuels.

Electrified Thermal Solutions, Inc. (ETS) is decarbonizing industry with new electric heating and storage technologies. Our flagship product, the Joule Hive™ thermal battery, turns intermittent renewable electricity into constant industrial-grade heat. It is a stack of electrically conductive firebricks in an insulated container, which may be installed on-site as a drop-in replacement to fossil fuels in even the hottest industries. The system charges by running electricity directly through the bricks to joule-heat them, circumventing the operating limits of today’s electric heaters. The same bricks store thermal energy up to 1800+^oC with minimal thermal loss for hours or days until needed. Discharging the system simply involves running air or another gas through the brick channels to provide constant, high-temperature heat to any furnace, boiler, turbine, or kiln.

Heliogen is a renewable energy technology company on a mission to decarbonize industry, using concentrated sunlight and thermal energy storage to deliver carbon-free heat, steam, power, and green hydrogen for round-the-clock operations.

HelioHeat™ (Product category covering industrial Heat, Steam, and Hot Air)

For industrial organizations looking to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, Heliogen generates carbon-free, ultra-high temperature heat up to 1,000°C that can replace the need for fossil fuel-generated heat in facilities for cement, mining, petrochemicals, and other industrial processes. Heliogen’s HelioHeat^TM solution converts sunlight directly to thermal energy, and incorporates long-duration storage, delivering high-temperature heat as steam or hot air for 10 hours or more, at any time of day.

HelioPower™ (Power Generation)

For organizations looking to decarbonize while supplying round-the-clock electricity, Heliogen’s HelioPower solution will use concentrating solar energy generation and thermal storage combined with supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO₂) turbines to transform solar energy into electricity to power industrial facilities, data centers, mining operations, and other energy-intensive industries.

HelioFuel™ (Green Hydrogen Fuel)

By efficiently combining on-demand, carbon-free power with commercially available electrolyzers, Heliogen will produce green hydrogen that can be used to power industry and replace fossil fuels in transportation, heavy equipment, and heating applications. Because Heliogen’s system starts with thermal energy, it is also well-suited to integrate with next-generation solid oxide electrolysis technologies which produce more hydrogen per kWh of electrical energy by supplementing it with thermal energy in the form of steam.

The Rondo Heat Battery uses low-cost, intermittent, electricity to uniformly heat a durable brick material. This stored heat is delivered on demand as hot air, steam or hot water, at selectable temperatures up to 1,500°C. Charging and discharging can occur simultaneously, unlocking 24/7 zero-carbon heat for industrial organizations’ process and power needs. Wave goodbye to the 'green premium'. Clean heat from Rondo is lower cost than fossil-fueled heating today.

Rondo is purpose-built for industrial facilities: the Rondo Heat Battery is constructed from proven, durable materials designed for seamless integration with existing equipment and processes. Whether deployed as a drop-in replacement for retiring fossil-fueled heating equipment or as a resilient complement to existing systems, Rondo requires no disruptive changes to customers’ operations. By leveraging already proven wind and solar, its method of generating fossil fuel-free heat is more scalable than many emerging carbon reduction technologies. When charging from the grid, electricity can reach low or even negative wholesale prices during the hours of peak renewable generation, resulting in dramatically lower cost than renewable or fossil alternatives.
