VIEWPOINT: How Thermal Energy Storage Can Maximize the Promise and Instill Safety in Nuclear SMRs
This third installment of Brenmiller Energy's (NASDAQ:BNRG) 'Viewpoint' Series explores how the Company's bGen™ system can help unlock the full potential of Small Modular Reactor (SMR) technology. Energy industry veteran and Chief Executive Officer Avi Brenmiller explains how thermal energy storage can bridge the gap between safe, clean heat generation and real-world demand. TEL AVIV, IL / ACCESS Newswire / July 11, 2025 / For decades, nuclear energy has sat at the center of the clean energy debate. It's powerful, reliable, carbon-free-and divisive. Critics point to high costs, operational rigidity, and the mismatch between steady-state output and a grid now shaped by real-time demand and fluctuating renewables. But the truth is, the reactor isn't the problem. It's what happens after the reactor does its job. The good news? That problem is solvable. Brenmiller Energy (NASDAQ:BNRG) (the 'Company' or 'Brenmiller') - a publicly traded thermal energy storage (TES) company-is one of the few players offering a practical, proven energy storage solution. Its bGen™ system, when modified for SMRs, can act as a thermal buffer, storing clean heat from nuclear reactors and releasing it on demand 24/7/365. It's potentially an innovative fix to one of nuclear's biggest limitations - and potentially one of the most important enablers of the nuclear renaissance no one's talking about yet. But that silence isn't likely to last. Why? As governments invest hundreds of millions in Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and the reactivation of dormant nuclear sites, they're discovering that critical pieces are missing from the equation: flexibility, dispatchability, and load-following. In short, nuclear needs a buffer-something that can take its powerful, clean, steady heat and make it not only more nimble but usable. Brenmiller's bGen™ thermal storage system provides exactly that. And it does so with a simplicity that's almost deceptive in its power. The Ally Nuclear Has Always Needed Let's start with the obvious: nuclear is great at one thing-baseload. It produces a constant stream of heat and electricity, day and night, rain or shine. But in today's world, that's not always an asset. Modern grids are increasingly volatile, shaped by solar and wind generation that can spike or drop in minutes. Industrial customers need heat when their processes call for it-not necessarily when the reactor happens to be online at full power. And utilities are under pressure to reduce over-generation and improve capacity factor economics without overbuilding. That's a tall order for nuclear. But it's precisely the kind of problem Brenmiller's TES platform was built to solve. Our bGen™ system can store thermal energy - whether from a solar field or industrial waste heat - and releases it on demand. It acts like a giant thermal battery, decoupling generation from consumption. If our bGen™ is configured for an SMR, the nuclear reactor can keep humming at its optimal set point while bGen™ could handle the peaks, troughs, and timing mismatches. And bGen™ isn't a theoretical solution - it's commercially proven, already deployed in four countries, and being adapted for the next wave of applications like SMR.. In July 2025, we announced that Brenmiller is developing a new bGen™ configuration specifically engineered for SMRs and high-resilience industrial applications. This product builds on our commercially deployed platform and reflects insights from the installation with Enel, a major European utility company, where bGen™ was used to decarbonize combined heat and power operations. Unlike conventional nuclear storage integrations, this version of bGen™ requires only minor engineering adjustments. Its high thermal mass, passive heat absorption, built-in heat exchanger, and compatibility with secondary and tertiary nuclear loops make it a natural fit for SMR-linked projects. These features also support decay heat removal, load following, and real-time grid balancing - all essential to meet modern energy expectations. With the SMR market projected to grow at a 30% CAGR to $72 billion by 2033, we believe our timing and technology positioning are aligned with a global resurgence in nuclear investment, driven by the need for cleaner computing, AI infrastructure, and industrial decarbonization at scale. Potential Synergies of SMRs and TES Take Oklo and Nano Nuclear Energy, two emerging leaders in the SMR space. Both are developing compact, next-generation reactors built to deliver reliable, carbon-free energy in decentralized, industrial, and off-grid environments. But even with innovative designs, they face the same limitation: delivering safe clean heat on demand - not just when the reactor produces it. Brenmiller's bGen™ system is aiming to cure this shortfall. Following the adaptation of the bGen™ system for SMRs that is under development, we believe that when paired with SMRs, it will enable true demand-driven delivery. The result? Potentially constant generation with flexible dispatch and improved economics. With a TES configured for SMR, capacity factors could stay high and heat could be stored when the market doesn't need it and sold when prices spike or customers call. With our development of TES configured for SMR, we aim to ensure that nuclear will be not just clean, but also safe, agile, profitable through Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) models, and relevant in a world demanding both sustainability and responsiveness. Safety and Risk Reduction Through Thermal Buffering Beyond flexibility, TES also improves the safety profile of nuclear systems - a critical factor for regulatory acceptance and public confidence. The bGen™ system can absorb decay heat - the residual thermal energy that continues after a reactor is shut down. This passive heat removal capability can support safer shutdown procedures and mitigate thermal transients, which can otherwise stress reactor materials and control systems. TES can also reduce: In short, thermal storage could add not just operational value-but structural and safety value. A Better Business Model for Atomic Energy Still, we believe that Brenmiller's value-add doesn't stop at technical integration - it can impact nuclear's business case. By absorbing and time-shifting thermal output, we aim to enable the adapted bGen system to allow nuclear operators to avoid overbuild while serving more customers. Utilities can size SMRs more efficiently and sell heat as a service to nearby industrial clients. Large-scale hydrogen production can operate intermittently without idling reactors. District heating networks gain new reliability and cost stability. In short, we believe that the adaptation of Brenmiller's bGen™ system will give nuclear leverage. It's not just about storing heat - it's about enabling new revenue streams, de-risking operations, and accelerating return on investment across complex deployments. And that's what the sector needs right now. Because nuclear power is no longer just a policy decision. It's a business. And businesses need flexibility to win. Clean Heat on Demand Let's not forget what's at stake here. Industrial heat accounts for more than 25% of global final energy consumption. And most of it still comes from fossil fuels. While electricity is going green fast, thermal energy has lagged behind - not because we lack clean sources, but because we lack the systems to make clean heat dispatchable. This is the bottleneck. And we believe that Brenmiller's TES tech is one of the very few solutions on the market that's modular, commercially ready, and fuel-agnostic. That last part matters. Because while today's conversation may be about nuclear, Brenmiller's bGen™ is currently being deployed as a solution for electrification of industrial heat from different sources. That means it's not just a bolt-on - it's infrastructure. And for any clean heat strategy to succeed, infrastructure wins the day. Action Over Debate and Academia The nuclear sector doesn't need another whitepaper or pilot-it needs tools that work today. Our systems are already operational, with global collaborations in energy and industry. And with the current development of our new bGen™ configuration for SMRs, we're aiming to deliver a technology designed to support clean baseload generation with the responsiveness that today's grid and industrial customers demand. While others remain in R&D, we are actively shaping the energy infrastructure of tomorrow through modifications to our existing bGen platform. If nuclear is going to thrive - not just survive - it will need TES solutions as a key ally. We believe that bringing TES into the nuclear conversation could be what finally proves the skeptics wrong about the most powerful energy source on Earth.

Brenmiller Energy: The $2.50 Thermal Energy Storage Stock Powering a Critical Energy Shift-And Still Flying Under the Radar
As governments intensify pressure to decarbonize, a quietly transformative sector is stepping into the spotlight: thermal energy storage, or TES. If you haven't heard of it yet, you will. TES may be the cleanest, safest, most reliable, and cost-effective way not just to harness energy's value—but to preserve it. And its brilliance is in its simplicity. TES doesn't dilute energy's strength—it protects it. Two companies are bringing TES to the forefront: privately held Rondo Energy and publicly traded Brenmiller Energy (NASDAQ: BNRG). And they couldn't be more timely. As recent blackouts in Spain and Portugal proved, volatile grids aren't just inconvenient—they're dangerous. TES offers a critical solution. And don't underestimate the wave forming here—or the opportunity riding with it. The Missing Link in Clean Energy TES doesn't create energy—it manages it. And in today's market, that's exactly what's missing. Solar floods the grid at noon. Wind peaks overnight. But factories, hospitals, and campuses need power on demand, not when nature decides. This mismatch between when energy is produced and when it's needed is straining infrastructure worldwide. The Iberian Peninsula's recent blackout wasn't caused by a power shortage—but by the grid's failure to balance peaks and troughs. It was a failure of management, not a supply issue. TES changes that. Unlike batteries that degrade or fossil fuel backups that pollute, thermal storage uses natural materials to capture surplus energy as heat—then release it precisely when needed. Clean, dispatchable, and industrial-grade. In that way, TES doesn't compete with renewables—it completes them. A Sector with Trillions in Play—And Just Two Starters You'd think dozens of companies would be racing to capitalize on a market projected to reach trillions. But right now, just two are leading the charge—and they don't compete directly. Rondo Energy is focused on ultra-high-temperature industrial applications like cement and steel. Backed by Breakthrough Energy Ventures—think Bill Gates-level capital—Rondo's valuation has already surpassed $500 million despite still being in early deployment. Brenmiller Energy, on the other hand, targets medium-temperature applications—the largest slice of industrial heat demand—spanning food and beverage, plastics, pharmaceuticals, and district heating. These are massive, underserved markets that need to decarbonize without expensive retrofits. And Brenmiller is already deploying solutions. Why bring these two to your attention? Well, while both companies intend to make clean energy functional and reliable for industry, only one—Brenmiller—is publicly traded, giving retail investors direct access to a sector on the cusp of mass adoption. Built to Scale, Not to Survive In June, Brenmiller executed a reverse stock split. For many microcaps, that's a red flag. But not here. This wasn't about compliance or desperation—it was a proactive strategic move to streamline the capital structure and prepare for growth. Investors took notice. The stock held steady post-split, signaling confidence. Probably because, unlike conceptual-stage competitors, Brenmiller is delivering in the field, not just pitching on paper. In Israel, Brenmiller's BGen system is expected to reduce CO₂ emissions by over 6,200 tons annually for Tempo Beverage, the bottler of Heineken and Pepsi, by utilizing a combination of solar and off-peak grid electricity. That project hits a milestone this July. In Spain, the company is part of the SolWinHy project, backed by the European Hydrogen Bank, which has committed £7 million to Brenmiller's system to replace fossil-fueled heat in green hydrogen production. In New York, the state is using Brenmiller's tech to heat the Purchase College campus, reducing emissions, improving resilience, and decoupling thermal and electrical generation. Additional deals are expected from a $500 million pipeline, spanning healthcare, manufacturing, and energy services—all of which are expected to begin ramping up in late 2025. The Only Game in Town—for Now Yes, there is some competitive speculation. Conceptual sand batteries in Finland and state-run trials in China may be exciting, but they're years—if not decades—away from commercialization. Brenmiller is already live. Already scaling. Already earning sovereign funding. That matters. The best part for investors? Brenmiller is trading at about $2.50 per share, with roughly 2.7 million shares outstanding—giving it a market cap near $6.7 million. Compare that to Rondo's $500 million+ valuation, and the disconnect becomes glaring. Keep in mind that Brenmiller's fundamentals don't suggest a startup—they suggest an early leader. The company has projects in motion and policy tailwinds at its back. Most importantly, Brenmiller stock is open to public investors. Why This Window Won't Stay Open If you're not a venture capitalist or writing checks from a climate fund, you've had little access to this energy transformation—until now. Brenmiller gives regular investors a chance to ride the TES megatrend before it's fully priced in. With global decarbonization mandates intensifying and industrial buyers desperate for alternatives to fossil fuels, this isn't a long-shot bet—it's a rare investment opportunity in a sector that's already proven its value. Brenmiller isn't a science project. It's small, yes—but real. With contracts signed, projects active, and a lean capital structure, it's a potential breakout hiding in plain sight. The only question is whether investors will recognize the opportunity before the market does—because once they do, this low-float stock could move quickly. Rondo investors have already shown their hand, and they're playing to win. But Brenmiller holds equally strong cards. And by targeting non-competing markets, both players can claim the coveted TES bracelet. Billions in revenues as well.
